It is, unequivocally, a film that never, ever needed to be re-made. And if anyone was going to insist on doing something so foolish,that entity should have been a major movie studio, not ABC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite featuring some solid talent -- \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0405103/\">Sarah Hyland\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0970122/?ref_=nv_sr_1\">Nicole Scherzinger\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005226/?ref_=nv_sr_1\">Debra Messing\u003c/a> all do the best with what they're given -- this thing is almost entirely lacking in any sense. The warning signs came early. \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgyaquCP6uk\">ET\u003c/a>, speaking to Abigail Breslin in a recent episode, as part of a preview for \u003cem>Dirty Dancing,\u003c/em> pointed out that the \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0449059/?ref_=nv_sr_1\">\u003cem>Little Miss Sunshine\u003c/em>\u003c/a> star had \"absolutely no dance experience.\" Breslin herself admitted as much: \"I was like ‘I wanna be like Baby. I wanna dance like that, but I’m the most uncoordinated human being on the face of the Earth, so it didn’t seem like a likely scenario for me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, everyone, ABC cast a non-dancer as the lead in a movie about dancing. And that one little nugget of info serves to symbolize the essence of everything that happened on our televisions last night. Breslin tried her adorable best -- in many ways out-charming Jennifer Grey's whiny Baby -- but her lack of grace on the dance floor was a major stumbling block and a serious oversight on the part of the producers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And as for Patrick Swayze's replacement, Colt Prattes? Swayze's shoes are simply too big for anyone to fill. And while Prattes has all of the abs, he's somehow lacking the sexual dynamism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-82492\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2017/05/swayze-gif.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Truly, ABC's \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> is a remake for people who want to see the original done with less dirt and worse dancing. And that's true, even after the added scenes where Scherzinger teaches Breslin about the power of her womanly groin. (No joke.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ABC's \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> has a weaker soundtrack too -- modern day covers of the golden oldies and \u003cem>DD\u003c/em> classics (including, criminally, Swayze's own \"She's Like the Wind\") that made the original so special, with some bizarre musical interludes thrown in. Like the part when Baby's dad finds out she has spent the night with Johnny and responds by going to the dance studio and inexplicably singing Frank Sinatra's \"They Can't Take That Away From Me\" to himself on the piano. Also, did anyone want or need the final dance routine to be performed as a group vocal number where even the parents join in? The answer is no. Just... please, no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a lot to complain about when it comes to the fad of live television musicals, but somehow, remarkably, last night's \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> -- utterly confused about what it wanted to be -- actually made it possible to miss the productions that commit all the way. At least when things are live, the promise of things going wrong at any given moment is tantalizingly there. ABC's \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> was all kinds of wrong -- just not in the fun ways.\u003c/p>\n\n",

It's over. We got too spoiled, and now we must pay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attempting to bear witness to these pseudo-theatrical debacles only makes the darkness descend further, for the message is clear and the message is this: not only are we out of ideas in 2017, the ideas being rehashed for us are typically presented in a manner that is distinctly crappier. Perhaps the networks think that we, as a nation of gif-making mockers and Twitter-based critics, simply don't deserve the undiluted joy of the originals. Perhaps they want us to make do with secondhand productions that neither capture the excitement of a real live theatrical play \u003cem>nor\u003c/em> the flawless gloss of modern television productions, because our cynical eyes just don't deserve the effort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-82482\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2017/05/grease-stud.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"624\" height=\"350\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even after the nation suffered through 2013's constipated \u003ca href=\"http://jezebel.com/the-five-most-excruciating-moments-from-sound-of-music-1478025029\">\u003cem>Sound of Music\u003c/em>\u003c/a> and the unintentionally comedic nightmare that was 2014's \u003ca href=\"http://jezebel.com/the-5-most-mockable-moments-of-peter-pan-live-1667392228\">\u003cem>Peter Pan Live\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, the networks have continued making these live musicals.

If the original \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> didn't need to be 3-hours, it is unabashed madness to assume anyone would want this one to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1987's \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092890/?ref_=nv_sr_2\">\u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em>\u003c/a> is a ridiculous film with a frequently insane script, but it remains much-beloved around the world because of its magical combination of '60s nostalgia, super-cute wardrobe, great soundtrack and, above all else, the electric chemistry between Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze. It is, unequivocally, a film that never, ever needed to be re-made. And if anyone was going to insist on doing something so foolish,that entity should have been a major movie studio, not ABC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite featuring some solid talent -- \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0405103/\">Sarah Hyland\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0970122/?ref_=nv_sr_1\">Nicole Scherzinger\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005226/?ref_=nv_sr_1\">Debra Messing\u003c/a> all do the best with what they're given -- this thing is almost entirely lacking in any sense. The warning signs came early. \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgyaquCP6uk\">ET\u003c/a>, speaking to Abigail Breslin in a recent episode, as part of a preview for \u003cem>Dirty Dancing,\u003c/em> pointed out that the \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0449059/?ref_=nv_sr_1\">\u003cem>Little Miss Sunshine\u003c/em>\u003c/a> star had \"absolutely no dance experience.\" Breslin herself admitted as much: \"I was like ‘I wanna be like Baby. I wanna dance like that, but I’m the most uncoordinated human being on the face of the Earth, so it didn’t seem like a likely scenario for me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, everyone, ABC cast a non-dancer as the lead in a movie about dancing. And that one little nugget of info serves to symbolize the essence of everything that happened on our televisions last night. Breslin tried her adorable best -- in many ways out-charming Jennifer Grey's whiny Baby -- but her lack of grace on the dance floor was a major stumbling block and a serious oversight on the part of the producers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And as for Patrick Swayze's replacement, Colt Prattes? Swayze's shoes are simply too big for anyone to fill. And while Prattes has all of the abs, he's somehow lacking the sexual dynamism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-82492\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2017/05/swayze-gif.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Truly, ABC's \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> is a remake for people who want to see the original done with less dirt and worse dancing. And that's true, even after the added scenes where Scherzinger teaches Breslin about the power of her womanly groin. (No joke.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ABC's \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> has a weaker soundtrack too -- modern day covers of the golden oldies and \u003cem>DD\u003c/em> classics (including, criminally, Swayze's own \"She's Like the Wind\") that made the original so special, with some bizarre musical interludes thrown in. Like the part when Baby's dad finds out she has spent the night with Johnny and responds by going to the dance studio and inexplicably singing Frank Sinatra's \"They Can't Take That Away From Me\" to himself on the piano. Also, did anyone want or need the final dance routine to be performed as a group vocal number where even the parents join in? The answer is no. Just... please, no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a lot to complain about when it comes to the fad of live television musicals, but somehow, remarkably, last night's \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> -- utterly confused about what it wanted to be -- actually made it possible to miss the productions that commit all the way. At least when things are live, the promise of things going wrong at any given moment is tantalizingly there. ABC's \u003cem>Dirty Dancing\u003c/em> was all kinds of wrong -- just not in the fun ways.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

In case you haven't yet engaged in the weekly trauma of watching this thing, here's a brief overview to get you up to speed:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005253/\">Elisabeth Moss\u003c/a> plays a strong, modern woman named Offred (birth name: June) contending with a new authoritarian system that has taken away her child, murdered her husband, and enslaved her -- and every other fertile woman in the country -- to act as what are essentially \"two-legged wombs\" for the largely sterile aristocracy. Failure to obey new rules regarding everything from language restrictions to dress code result in a variety of physical tortures and disfigurements that are better left discovered through the show or novel (also because the mere idea of describing them here is giving me the heebie-jeebies).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Try and get through this trailer without crying:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAXy_NyUN6k\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you are in possession of a womb in real life, this is basically the most terrifying thing that's ever been on television. Ever. It's all the more frightening, of course, because of our current political climate. With the Republican party going after women's reproductive rights on both a \u003ca href=\"http://nymag.com/thecut/2017/05/new-healthcare-bill-ahca-sexual-assault.html\">national\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.newsweek.com/abortion-texas-fetus-law-2017-576863\">state\u003c/a> level; and with an overwhelmingly wealthy, white, male government looking after wealthy, white, male priorities, \u003cem>The Handmaid's Tale\u003c/em> is particularly hard to watch right now.

In case you haven't yet engaged in the weekly trauma of watching this thing, here's a brief overview to get you up to speed:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005253/\">Elisabeth Moss\u003c/a> plays a strong, modern woman named Offred (birth name: June) contending with a new authoritarian system that has taken away her child, murdered her husband, and enslaved her -- and every other fertile woman in the country -- to act as what are essentially \"two-legged wombs\" for the largely sterile aristocracy. Failure to obey new rules regarding everything from language restrictions to dress code result in a variety of physical tortures and disfigurements that are better left discovered through the show or novel (also because the mere idea of describing them here is giving me the heebie-jeebies).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Try and get through this trailer without crying:\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/SAXy_NyUN6k'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/SAXy_NyUN6k'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>If you are in possession of a womb in real life, this is basically the most terrifying thing that's ever been on television. Ever. It's all the more frightening, of course, because of our current political climate. With the Republican party going after women's reproductive rights on both a \u003ca href=\"http://nymag.com/thecut/2017/05/new-healthcare-bill-ahca-sexual-assault.html\">national\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.newsweek.com/abortion-texas-fetus-law-2017-576863\">state\u003c/a> level; and with an overwhelmingly wealthy, white, male government looking after wealthy, white, male priorities, \u003cem>The Handmaid's Tale\u003c/em> is particularly hard to watch right now.

His father, a dedicated high school teacher, didn't make much money, but they bonded over late-night classic movies.

I don't want to get in trouble financially. A man's job is to make as much money as he can, that's it. That's it. ... That effed up my career in some ways; I didn't really do what I wanted to do careerwise. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a turning point, which I view clearly as a turning point, there's a spell of time there where I go and I don't do \u003cem>Prelude to a Kiss\u003c/em> on Broadway and I go do \u003cem>The \u003c/em>\u003cem>Marrying Man\u003c/em>, because they're going to pay me a million dollars for the first time in my life, and I thought, \"Well, that's who I am.

I said to Tom, \"What motivates you?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In some way Tom is mesmerizing to me, in terms of his career and his work ethic. I said, \"What drives you now? You're so many years into this.\" ... He says, \"I gotta give them their money's worth ... on both ends, the people who are writing me my check and the people who are buying tickets to the film. I've got to give on both ends.\" ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And I've felt that same way.

His father, a dedicated high school teacher, didn't make much money, but they bonded over late-night classic movies. Initially, Baldwin thought he would pursue a career in law and government, but he decided instead to go into acting — much to the chagrin of his mother. \"She was apoplectic,\" Baldwin says. \"She was screaming on the phone, 'What is wrong with you?' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baldwin details his entry into show business, as well as the highs and lows of his career and his life, in his memoir, \u003cem>Nevertheless.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Interview Highlights\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On his Trump impression on \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>SNL \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
