Season 2 sneak peak!!!!

My jaw dropped at "The Mob Song"!!!!! Love it!!! So excited!!!

[Disney's Divinity]

They were airing season 1 on the Disney channel last night. I just happened to see it by chance. I hope they might re-run it again. The first episode I started with was "Auditions" and I had a hard time keeping my eyes open for five hours straight no commercials. Especially with SNL and Toonami on afterwards, I kept passing out for a few minutes. I'm happy, because this is kind of what I was hoping would happen, that shows exclusive to Disney+ might show up on Disney Channel or Freeform occasionally after some time goes by.

I had no idea the new breakout artist Olivia Rodrigo was from this show until I saw you had her name written in the post above. I was going to say that I thought the girl who played Nini was the best part of the show, along with the redheaded girl. I'm happy for her that she's having success in the music world. Nini and the understudy girl remind me of Rachel v. Santana on Glee. The music teacher looked so much like Kristen Chenoweth.

[blackcauldron85]

I think it's great that they're airing it on Disney Channel!! Season 2 starts streaming in a few days, so surely it's to get more people knowledgeable about the show so maybe they'll sign up for D+. I'm glad you got to see some of it!! Olivia Rodrigo was on Disney Channel's Bizaardvark! before she was on HSMTMTS!! Kate Reinders, Miss Jenn on the show, actually DID play Glinda in Wicked!!

Lily isn't new to theater, is she?!
Ugh, Lily is a beeeeeeytch...
I don't know if that school is right for Nini.

Is EJ going to be Gina's Valentine? Ricky?

[bruno_wbt]

Episode 2!! (As usual, writing as I watch!)

What is Lily up to? I hate her!!!

I think she's going to play Ariel! I know she's a bad person, but she's very talented.


I'm so glad that this second season is obviously made for Disney fans.

[blackcauldron85]

She's from West High?! She infiltrated the East High auditions? WHAT IS GOING ON? And yeah, she has a great voice, but she is an awful person!

I loved the B&tB songs, and you are right that it's aiming for the Disney fans!

[blackcauldron85]

Episode 3!

-NOOOOOOOO!!!! Nini + Ricky!!!!!!!

-How is Kourtney assistant manager when she's a new employee and in high school? Good for her, though!!! #jealous

- Nini is not happy that she didn't know Ricky moved. I do not blame her, though.

- OMG Disney acknowledging the "Stockholm syndrome" theory

- Ashlyn </3

- Is Kourtney sleepy from working? Or she just isn't feeling the tempo?

- "What did you get me?" -Carlos. Ugh.

- OMG Big Red is stuck in a locker. ( Nini- "Again?!")

- Awww, Gina's speech

- Kourt + Seb = #friendgoals

- Is Gina trying to be with Ricky, or she just wants a friend who understands?

- Ugh, Lily. Bruno, I think you are TOTALLY right from your prediction last week!

- Mr. Mazzara + Ms. Jenn!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- Big Red's speech <3 He is too pure for this world. <3

- OMG Seb's gift + talk with Carlos! <3 awww

- Aww, Mr. Mazzara- he likes Ms. Jenn + he's sad that she has a crush.

- Kourtney's banana pepper movement worked, + Howie will be nice to her from now on!!! <3 (hopefully)

- OMG SEB'S TEXT + VOICEMAIL!!!!! <3 <3 He too is too pure for this world. <3

- Kourtney's B&tB!!! <3 Big Red + Ashlyn's dance!!! <3

- I had already heard Nini's + Ricky's song(s), but I still really like it/them! <3 (Is it considered one song? Two songs? Whatever it is, it's good. )

- Nini + Ricky won't work out + he'll try being with Gina? Or Gina just hopes that? (And earlier when RJ spoke with Ricky...maybe if Gina can't have Ricky, she'll get with RJ??? But for real this time?) #lovetriangle #lovesquare

- OMG The chocolates are from Gina's mom. I'm glad her mom reached out but OMG what will Ricky think about the text?!?!?!?!

- OMG BIG RED'S + ASHLYN'S SONG!!!!!!! <3 <3 <3 I LOVE THIS!!!! I am shouting.

- Sneak Peak: Ms. Jenn to Nini: "We'll get you back where you belong"---SALT LAKE CITY!

[bruno_wbt]

Episode 3!

- Ugh, Lily. Bruno, I think you are TOTALLY right from your prediction last week!

I knew she would be the main villain, and maybe in this case, a Villain Ariel xD

- Kourtney's B&tB!!! <3 Big Red + Ashlyn's dance!!! <3

that was so cute! I loved Kourney's rendition of B&tB!

- I had already heard Nini's + Ricky's song(s), but I still really like it/them! <3 (Is it considered one song? Two songs? Whatever it is, it's good. )

They are 2 different songs, even though in the episode they're mixed, in the official Youtube channel they put them separate, too:

Olivia Rodrigo - The Best Part

Joshua Bassett - Even When

Olivia Rodrigo, Joshua Bassett - Even When/The Best Part
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXDuPFzm-hQ

[blackcauldron85]

Cool, thank you! I wonder on the soundtrack if it'll be like that, the two separate and then the mashup song...

[blackcauldron85]

Episode 4!

-Poor Gina. She literally just told everyone the name of the song they'll be rehearsing, and Carlos is freaking out.

-But then in her monologue, she kind of feels how Carlos feels- they each want to be the only choreographer. Can they each choreograph different songs or something?

-LOL Ms. Jenn's iced tea repairman story!

-Ricky laughed at Gina's remark about Ms. Jenn's story and she had that flustered/distracted-for-a-moment look.

-I am guessing that Nini and Ricky will take a break and he and Gina will at least hang out.

-Gina and Carlos should have planned stuff together before showing it off at the rehearsal. And he called Gina's choreography -GASP- "Basic."

-OMG Mr. Mazzara loves Ms. Jenn. Awww <3.

-Aww, EJ.

-Lol, Kourtney's reaction at Big Red's & Ashlyn's "hold each other for warmth" talk.

-Gina's in charge!!

-Nini's talk with Ms. Jenn made me tear up. Poor Nini.

-Gina's heart broke about what Ricky wanted to text Nini. Poor Gina.

-LOL Seb and Kourtney and Mr. Mazzara! <3

-I love Seb and Kourtney!

-Awww, Ms. Jenn's Frozen talk. <3

-Mr. Mazzara is so great. I wonder if EJ will go to A.V. Club...?

-Big Red "probably tastes like pizza." LOL

-YAY!! Carlos and Gina are being honest with each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-HOWIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-Howie and Kourtney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

-Ricky is so sad. Poor guy has had so many changes in his life lately.

-Awww, Nini is staying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-I thought Ricky was going to break up with Nini, so I wonder what will happen when she gets to his house...

[bruno_wbt]

Episode 4!

-Awww, Nini is staying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-I thought Ricky was going to break up with Nini, so I wonder what will happen when she gets to his house...

I was wondering....

Now that Nini is staying, I wonder if she's going to be part of the musical... I mean, at the beginning she was the obvious Belle, but now that Ash has that part, I don't know what's going to happen... There's no more roles left...

[blackcauldron85]

It wouldn't be at all fair for her to just come in and take Belle, like alternate the role with Ashlyn. a) Ashlyn earned it, b) Ashlyn was struggling with not feeling like the ingenue, c) Gina wanted the role... Yay Nini is back, but that doesn't invalidate the auditions and rehearsals. Is there not a townsperson she can play, in the ensemble? Minor role for a "star," but fair is fair in my book. Next season she can audition for a lead role. Maybe for B&tB there is a behind-the-scenes role she can do...?
