    We saw Tootsie last week in New York and saw the preview in Chicago in October. This gentleman is amazingly talented. I was impressed that he took this opportunity to so graciously work in the names of so many colleagues during this interview. Sharing the credit rather than holding the spotlight on himself makes him a class act in my book. He deserves his success!

      Queen Elsa Of Arendelle I'm not a fan of that twist, to put it mildly. The abrupt shift from "likeable but impulsive secondary lead" to "gloating Saturday morning-cartoon supervillain" leaves a really nasty taste in my mouth, and I feel like there were numerous better ways of portraying Hans whilst retaining the "Don't rush into marriage" message. However, Santino did his best with what he had, and "Love Is An Open Door" is one of my favourite songs from Frozen...

    Ah, Mr. Fontana, always a charmer! But wow, was he contractually obligated to credit all those people on the musical? He tried to be smooth about it (and with that amazing voice and smile, he's very smooth) but it still felt forced and awkward. Nevertheless, it's great to see him get more exposure, and on a superficial note - who knew a brown suit could look so good?

    • @Rtotalmagic
      @Rtotalmagic 5 лет назад

      Melissa Dana I feel like he isn't recognised in person, because Hans' speaking voice is pretty similar to the other Disney princes. Many Disney villains have very distinctive voices, but Hans is essentially designed to sound like the "charming but generic" romantic lead he initially seems to embody...

      @@debbiedoodiedandi Apparently he was not willing to wait to see if they would get renewed for season 2 and accepted other offers, so the CXG people had to write him off the show pretty quickly in season 2, which was not planned. Rachel Bloom is very supportive on social media about all her co-stars but has not said anything about Santino since he left, nor liked/commented on his posts. Same the other way around, Santino does not speak about the show, although he was a big part of it initially.

    • @emilyz.9575
      @emilyz.9575 5 лет назад +13

      Actors usually don't talk about their past jobs in interviews about their new shows. Also, there are plenty of interviews where Santino has addressed that he left crazy ex-girlfriend because he wanted to be with his wife and he missed New York. He has constantly said he was open to returning if he had time and if they could write him back in.
      Crazy ex-girlfriend isn't very popular outside of the small fanbase so i don't think it means much that Colbert didn't mention it. Frozen is much more well known than CXG

    • @moonspinner1299
      @moonspinner1299 5 лет назад +6

      Also, he signed on when CXG was a half hour cable show, then CXG got picked up as an hour long show on a major network. He upheld his 1 season contract but did not renew for season 2. Multiple CXG cast & crew have posted on social that they have gone to see Tootsie as well. That he left on "bad terms" has been hyped. I'm sure Rachel Bloom & co. were disappointed to have to rework their plan for his character, but nothing negative has been said publicly by either side.

    Oh, thank God, I thought I was the only one who felt that the very idea of "Tootsie" is problematic and transphob-ish. Here, see, "Out" understands me.
    www.out.com/theater/2019/5/06/tootsie-may-be-funny-its-hella-problematic
    "Throughout, her sexuality is a joke. For example, when she is describing her ideal man, it is played for laughs and when she believes she is a lesbian, the very idea of queerness is considered comedic."
    "For the entirety of the musical, it is the men who are woke and have the most to say about sexism, primarily Michael, who believes “what Dorothy is doing is important,” but also his roommate Jeff, played by Andy Grotelueschen, and his agent, played by Michael McGrath. The musical goes out of its way to have the male characters be mouthpieces for feminism, as if these brief apologist monologues can make up for the rest of the show. God forbid the women actually be given a chance to speak about sexism."
    And the conclusion:
    " *Tootsie cannot be saved, and quite honestly, it shouldn’t be.* "

    I'm sure this guy is great but Keanu only got one segment and this guy gets equal time? Keanu is an incredible smokeshow who deserves at least a two-fer! Oh well
