Here's All You Need to Know About Peter Pan Live

Pete1 So tonight, NBC aired a live musical version of Peter Pan starring Allison Williams (daughter of NBC Nightly's News' Brian Williams; co-star of the HBO drama Girls) as the titular Peter Pan, and Christopher Walken (acclaimed actor; everyone's favorite crazy uncle) as Captain Hook. As you can probably guess, it was three hours of weirdness, bad acting, and pure camp. Every pop culture site on the internet will have a run down of the spectacle tomorrow, so rather than pile on with an overly long deconstruction of a shoddy stage production broadcast on a major network (aka, shooting fish in a barrel), here are two images that provide a nice summary of the proceedings. First, this happened: And then Allison Williams tried to sneak in a subtle promo for Girls, but I totally busted her on it: Nice try, Williams. If you watched all three hours of this travesty, you're a better man than I. I signed off at the two and a half hour mark, just after Walken performed his fifth dance number with his pirate pals and Williams soared toward the heavens with the help of two completely obvious cables. You crazy for this one, NBC.
