I'm not saying anything bad about Steve Martin; he happens to be a brilliant man and one of my favorite actors/comedians. All I was saying is that to have him host the TONY's is not very logical when compared to people like Bernadette and Gregory (who are more associated with theatre).

Steve Martin is a playwright. This year there is a very successful production of one of his plays. So he does have something to do with theater.

I completely agree! Just wait until Bernadette is getting her third TONY for GYPSY next season; then let them say she's not a ratings grabber!
I thought the show was a vast improvment on last year's, and Bernadette and Gregory's duet was terrific.
& please tell me what Steve Martin has to do with Broadway!!!!!! Come On!

Replying to:

Read what this guy Gary Smith (the exec. producer of the Tony's said):

"Smith wanted (Nathan) Lane back this year or Steve Martin, who has handled similar duties for the Academy Awards. He settled for Bernadette Peters and Gregory Hines, gold-plated theater stars if not exactly ratings-grabbers."

That REALLY pisses me off!!! He SETTLED for Bernadette??? Who does this guy think he is?? OMG!!! He'd rather have Steve Martin?? I can't stand it!!! Oh, and Bernadette isn't a ratings grabber?? Ask a Bernadette Peters fan... JERK!!!
