“Smash” is a smash hit

Published: February 22, 2012

NBC’s “Smash” premiered on Feb. 6 and is sure to be a popular hit. The TV show is a musical drama centered aro

und the production of a Broadway show based off of Marilyn Monroe’s life.

Karen Cartwright (Katherine McPhee), a fresh-face waitress who is the unexpected choice, and Ivy Lynn (Megan Hilty), a veteran actress favored to play the part, battle it out to see who is chosen as the envied part of Marylin.

“Smash” is sure to make it big and become one of the top winter TV shows. It’s along the lines of a musical TV show but doesn’t have the cheesiness so many of them do. I’m already looking forward to downloading all of the songs played on the show.

The show portrays the shocking action that takes places behind the scenes before the curtain is pulled back, and if you’re a fan of musicals, Broadway or simply a good dramatic competition, then “Smash” is a show you should check out.
