Of all the things I know that I don t need to know, I probably don t need to know the words to (Not) Getting Married Today from
Company the most.
Knowing show tunes, and knowing Stephen Sondheim lyrics in particular, is like carrying a Birkin bag or having Tom Brady tattooed on your shoulder it signals to other people that you, too, care way too much about something that isn t important. It is for people who fall into this category that the new Apple TV+ comedy
Schmigadoon! was made.

“It’s like if The Walking Dead was also Glee.” That’s the despairing cry of Josh (Keegan-Michael Key, of sketch show Key & Peele), when, along with girlfriend Melissa (Saturday Night Live’s Cecily Strong), he finds himself trapped in a 1940s small town-cum-musical, Schmigadoon, where residents frequently break into song. Some viewers might share his horror.
Curiously, Barry Sonnenfeld, who directs this new Apple TV+ comedy series, is among them; he is, he’s declared, not a fan of musicals. But then
Schmigadoon! (exclamation mark very much earned) is as much a critique of classic Broadway as it is a loving homage to the likes of Oklahoma!, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, The Wizard of Oz, Kiss Me, Kate, and Brigadoon.
