My thoughts on all the musicals (I've seen):

---

AVPM: A classic! Despite the recording quality, very good! I loved this. Would recommend. Quirrelmort for life.

ANI: SO UNDERRATED. God I love this one. Nick Lang is the best, they actually made me love Jar Jar, and the music is amazing. I love Clark. Joe's character was great. The whole musical was just so funny.

Black Friday: I actually really liked Black Friday. I loved all the TGWDLM references. At first I wasn't sure about the songs but now I really love them. And! Corey Dorris got a solo! :D I was so happy to see Dylan return. Angela, Kim, and Kendall were also all amazing. I'm sad Mariah wasn't there but I think Angela did a great job as Lex. I'm curious as to how Mariah's Lex would be, but I'm not going to say I prefer one over the other. Angela added a sort of gruffness to Lex that I'm not sure Mariah could have but I love both Angela and Mariah. <3 (Also, I have a Wiggly Doll!)

Firebringer: Firebringer was great! The music is absolutely GREAT. I love so many songs from it. The harmonies are *chef's kiss*. Lauren Lopez and Merideth are so good in it. However, I will say, the comedy didn't always land. It's a bit weaker on the comedy side but the story and music and so good. ALSO LAUREN WALKER SDXCFBHJ

TGWDLM: Ahhh I love this show so much. It's very very good. They got me in the end though. I also know the choreography to Cup Of Roasted Coffee! Robert is great in this along with Jon Matteson. AND MY QUEEN MARIAH. AGH and Jaime in Join Us And Die is sooo good. I will say though, I think Show Stopping Number is tad bit overrated. It's still an amazing song and Robert's performance is great along with Working Boys, but I don't think it's the best song in TGWDLM and definitely not the best song in all of Starkid. (Please don't come for my head) Also Show Me Your Hands is wonderful.

HMB: Great music! GOD Dylan in this is SO GOOD. "One shot. Two shots in the dark, in the night and he's all left alone," IS SO GOOD. HIS VOCALS S L A P. Anyways, Nick Lang and Joe Walker are literally so good in this. Story, music, and comedy are all great. This one is very nice. ALSO ROBIN SUCKS IS GREAT

Starship: My second favorite Starkid show. It's so underrated! Also, I love how it's literally The Bee Movie and The Little Mermaid in space. Kick It Up A Notch might be my favorite Starkid song. DYLAN AND JAIME'S VOCALS SLAP. Another thing is Dylan and Merideth are literally the best in this. Tootsie and Megagirl are so sweet together. I love their story. THE WAY I DO IS ALSO SO GOOD. Anyways, I love Pincer and Junior and Up and Taz Yeah! Calculus was hard! and literally every single character. A masterpiece.

TTO: This is the very first Starkid show I ever watched. The show that started it all for me. Very small cast but soo good. Lauren is amazing this. (I love her little eating monologue) The songs are so good and it's so so funny. Rachel Soglin is literally the best in this. I love Slippery When Wet. When The World's At Stake is such a nostalgic song for me because of this show.

Twisted: This is my favorite Starkid show! I love it so so much! Dylan is literally so amazing in this I cry every time I watch it. The comedy is incredibly funny and the songs are the best. There's not a single song I don't like in the album. Ja'Far and Sherrezade (?) are so sweet. A Thousand And One Nights is sososo good. If I Believed and Twisted are also amazing. Joe's character was so good but... I can't remember who he played. One more thing, Spoiler: The split personality twist and the Princess being Ja'Far's daughter twist were incredible

Solve It Squad: I liked this! Esther is mood. Scrags is my son.

SAF: Oh my. SAF. I love this muscial. It is truly amazing. My 3rd favorite on this list. It lures you into thinking it's funny and nice and then rips your heart out of your chest and stomps on it. I love every single song. Curt and MK were so so good and Joe Walker was incredible. Brosenthal was so funny and Tessa Netting was great. I also loved Lauren and Joey. All in all, very very good.

If you don't agree with any of my opinions, that's fine! I'd actually like to hear what you think about these things as long as we can talk about it respectfully. :D

This thread is just to discuss all things Starkid/TCB! So give me opinions!

Some starters:

Thoughts on Black Friday?

Least Favorite Musical?

Maybe fill out what I did above?

Theories?

Thoughts on Firebringer?

Got any merch?

Ever seen a show live?

@SunnySunflower Oh yeah! I really recommend Black Friday and Twisted. (And Spies Are Forever if you haven't seen that one)

Yes, Duck is lord

What shows have you watched?

I've been getting into Starkid/TCB recently and I'm loving what I've seen so far. I've only really seen clips but pretty much everything I've seen I've enjoyed. (TTO feels a little bit hit or miss to me but my opinion may change when I watch it properly.)

I'm not sure which to watch first, I was thinking maybe TGWDLM or Starship but I'd love some recommendations!

@SunnySunflower (The one with the bugs and ants is starship)

I have no clue what the mom one is?

And yeah, TGWDLM is great. Let It Out is also really good. One of my favorite songs in the musical

@MissNevermind In my opinion, I think you should watch them all in order, starting with the Potter ones if you like Harry Potter. If not, Twisted, Starship, and TGWDLM are great places to start! Spies Are Forever also! That one is TCB.

I personally loved TOO but yeah, it's a little hit or miss at times.

Anyways, welcome to the cult!

Satan is a real man
