things the world does not need

Here is something Broadway doesn't need: A musical adaptation of AMERICAN PSYCHO. Yes, folks, it's true, the macabre thriller is in development for the bright lights of Broadway! I'm picturing How to Succeed meets Chess meets Dance of the Vampires, and that's not a pretty picture. High hopes for a big tap number about high-quality business cards, and a sweet serenade titled "Hey Paul!"

What else does the world NOT NEED? Oh, how about a television show based on 10 Things I Hate About You? Seriously. Casting notices went out yesterday. Blargh!
