@@rtaylor7384 Nah, he's infected. If he wasn't, then how does he know the lyrics to Show Stoppin' Number? He wasn't present when the professor sang it, unlike every other song the hive cycled through. He was there for all of them... except that one. Hence Emma's scream of horror as her last hope (Paul faking it) is proven wrong And the implication that Emma's at the beginning of the show in the opening number is part of a theory that the show itself is the aliens re-enacting how they conquered the world... like a sick little victory lap. She was infected from the start so of course Paul stood no chance, it's just an echo of who they all used to be.

Fun Fact when Paul and Emma go through the audience acting like it's alleyways, that was added so Mariah could get into her cop costume!

The creepiest part is that the title is in the past tense because the entire musical is the alien telling how it took over the earth- in musical form. It’s why at the end she says “it’s a loop!?” because her character becomes aware that she’s already trapped in a musical even before the alien takes over her.

The actress who played the Greenpeace girl among other characters, Mariah Rose Faith, this was her first Starkid show and she was even cast in Black Friday as Lex. But they had to recast the role of Lex because Mariah then got cast in the Broadway touring production of Mean Girls as Regina George. But like you guys said, she has an amazing voice! Starkid has a knack for finding the best talent that's out there.

Ted's is being stuck in the Bastard's Box/living a time loop over and over, haunted by his mistakes, etc.

The really sad thing about the ending is that if they went to wherever the boats were, they probably would have made it, but since Paul chose to attempt to save the town, they ended up dooming the planet in the process Also, the ending was foreshadowed in the title since it’s called The Guy Who *Didn’t* Like Musicals instead of The Guy Who Doesn’t Like Musicals

This musical is a near-perfect blend of humor and drama and Starkid is also AMAZING at comedic timing! And when you break it down, the subversion here was GENIUS. I mean it wasnt just a throwaway plot twist to throw the audience off. Its unexpected on the first watch, but when you look back the foreshadowing is completely meta and in-your face: I mean its The Guy Who DIDNT Like Musicals, not The Guy Who DOESNT Like Musicals!

Favourite Song: Let it out or Inevitable, Fun facts and behind the scenes i guess; Bill’s actor wasn’t actually meant to say “Coffee in the sugar” and Charlotte’s actor had to make a line so the script ran smoothly, her line there was improvised. Paul’s actor actually missed the stage entrance whilst going through the audience which is why he said “right! how did i miss that?!” and their whole big was then improvised until they got back into the stage. Also the reason Professor Hidgens was so flamboyant is because the character and actor are both part of the lgbt community, it’s a stereotype that the actor wanted to add to give more depth of himself in the character!

I wanna know your thoughts on Black Friday already but I'll be patient. I think you'd really like Holy Musical B@man cuz it allows Joe Walker (who played voldemort in AVPM) and his humorous acting to show through. Plus the music is amazing!!

One thing I love is the fact that the title spoils the entire musical and what happens. It's called "the guy who *DIDNT* like musicals" not "the guy who *DOESN'T* like musicals" for shadowing the fact that he gets taken over at the end.

I'm really sad you didn't react to the ending where she's freaking out as the crowd is applauding lol that's my favorite part of the whole thing!

So glad to see you two enjoying this :) it’s my favourite StarKid show, love the choice of horror-comedy for the genre and the musical numbers are consistently great, IMO, even more so than usual for StarKid. Loved to see your shock at the twist ending, I felt the same way!! Looking forward to your takes on Black Friday next week. 💚🖤💚🖤💚

Well, if you’ve seen the movie this was loosely based on, “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”, that would’ve been your clue to how this was gonna turn out.

My favorite song was the Professors songs. He's got such a flair and he's got such a great voice. Perfect combo. XD

The way I screamed when you turned off the credits, you guys predicted the fourth wall break and missed it!

lol, you missed the in-credits comedy of Emma pleading with the audience to help her while the cast take their bows. Hilarious! Anyway, I do think this is the best Starkid musical in terms of the music itself - really great tunes. I love the B-movie Rocky Horror vibe.

you should have seen the credits/applause at the end! it's really funny also the big discussion on this musical is if paul really is infected at the end or if he's pretending to be, bc a lot of the lyrics of the closing number can be read two different ways (i personally really enjoy The Implications, metaphorically speaking, of him faking the infection at the end)

@@whitenoisereacts There's another theory I heard circulating around that I think is the _most_ plausible, but I don't want to say anything about it until you watch Ep 2 of Nightmare Time.

Haircut looks great!!!

46:37 “This guy [Hidgens] is so dramatic.” Can anyone tell me what foreshadowing is?

Oh my goodness! Your faces falling as Paul begins singing the final song! That was amazing!

"Freaking Ted!" "He was part of it (the flash mob" me: 👀

This show has some Little Shop of Horrors kinda vibes... Maybe not directly, but yeah... The movie based on the musical (based on the film lol) has a happy ending, but with a hint that things aren't done... Meanwhile, the original musical stage show ends in a similarly bleak manner to this. I think this one is generally better than Black Friday, but Black Friday is still a great show... I expect you enjoyed it too. Looking forward to seeing it next week... Sadly can't donate right now... Great to see more people enjoying Team Starkid anyway ^_^ I hope you're planning to watch Ani at some point... Hopefully at least one of you knows at least Star Wars episodes 1 - 6. I think it's one of the funniest, but it might be the one hurt most by not getting a decent amount of the references... I dunno... Even if you don't react to everything, hopefully you'll watch them all at some point.

Emma is just the best! she's such a mood. sidebar, i think doing a parody of shows like superstore and the office would be a great topic for starkid to explore. just sayin'.

You think this is dark? Black Friday is gonna rock your world. And Trail to Oregon is fantasticly silly.

I would definitely love more StarKid reactions!

YES! This is everything I wanted and more :D TGWDLM is possibly my favourite musical of all time (including westend/ broadway) and it's so fun to watch people discover it for the first time and love it just as much. Welcome to the Starkid fandom!

nooooo i wish you guys kept watching for the credits!!!!!!!

Did you know that the bows at the end have all of the characters staying in character? Emma breaks the fourth wall asking for help from the audience before the hive drag her offstage!!

If you watch tgwdlm digital ticket version and the script, Ted acting even more like an asshole after he got drunk is because Charlotte is dead. Joey once said in live stream that Ted ACTUALLY loved Charlotte at some point, he actually did care for her a bit. That's why he told Charlotte that Sam is a scumbag, at that moment, that's how he showed that he do care for her. In digital ticket version you can see Ted holding a bottle, staring down at Charlotte's dead body for a very long time. Joey also said he intended to make him feel like he did care for Charlotte, that's why he chose to do that. Of course, that doesn't take away the fact that he is an asshole, but it's just a very interesting fact.

Fun fact IRL Ted and Emma are engaged 💍

I saw someone say that all these songs rock because theyre all villain songs and its SO TRUE

I listen to these songs to this day!! I love Starkid so much. My fav songs are "La Dee Dah Dah Day," "Show Me Your Hands," and of course "Join Us (And Die)." Oh, I forgot how good the "Cup of Morning Coffee" was. Not to mention the "Showstopping Number"!!

Yall missed emma breaking the fourth wall 🤣🤣🤣

so much fun watching this with you again. your faces dropping when paul starts singing at the end is priceless, i did exactly the same thing lmao. are you guys gonna watch nerdy prudes must die? i hope so, i think youll really like it

I love this musical, it gives Invasion of the Body Snatchers vibes

Holy cow, Pauls actor was absolutely amazing!

With evidence from characters like Sam and Alice, both of which seem to have retained aspects of their previous personalities, honestly I can't see the alien virus as completely taking over. They would have to at least retain memories, I think, but it's likely there's emotions that still hang around.

i always saw it as the aliens getting access to their memories and using it to manipulate people to infect them
