I'll admit that I can't stand most musicals, but I generally feel the same way about it.  I'm also not a "sit on the couch with a beer and watch the game" sort of guy, with a few exceptions.  So true about the makeup, though.

I can even deal with most musicals.  RENT was spectacular, Little Women was passable, The Lion King was stunning, and, though I've only listened to the soundtracks, Avenue Q and Spamalot seem hilarious.  Also, as a self professed sports fanatic, I'm just fine with sitting with my friends on the couch and watching a game.  Alcohol...probably only if we're losing.
