Giving it a 10 for the nerve to try and pull this off. The concept is amazing and there are moments of genius. The songs do go on a little long and the kids are a bit much at times.

The songs do go on a little long and the kids are a bit much at times. For example, I do wonder if the kid with the lisp has been coached by his parents and comes off contrived. And I know some people who loved the Mr. Music sketch, but it found it to B-flat.

Ok, this is just delightful. John Mulaney's writing is as hilarious as usual, the kids are great performers, the guests are very funny, specifically Jake Gyllanhaal as the funniest part, Mr. Music.
