Before Glee, there was American Dreams on NBC.

Jenna and Vanessa Lengies, filling in for Kevin, are taking it back to the early 2000s to recap the pilot episode of the nostalgic TV series 'American Dreams,' starring Sugar Motta herself! Vanessa shares behind-the-scenes stories from her time on the show, from her audition experience at 15, to her relationship with her co-star and next-door neighbor, Brittany Snow, and a scene she wishes she could have said no to. Plus, the music, the huge guest stars, including the one who made her so nervous she hid under a blanket, and spending her off-hours at the under-21 hotspot where all the biggest celeb teens, like Hillary Duff and Lindsay Lohan, were hanging out!!

You joined us as we relived the magic of McKinley High by watching all six seasons of Glee… and now we’re keeping the music going.

This time, we’re stepping outside the choir room and diving into some of the most iconic musicals ever.

Think: Rocky Horror Picture Show. Grease. Hairspray. West Side Story. Moulin Rouge. Wicked. And of course, High School Musical.

But we’re not stopping there - we’ll also celebrate unforgettable musical TV projects like Smash, Nashville, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend… plus those surprise musical episodes of shows you already love, like Grey’s Anatomy, Riverdale, and The Flash. 

We’ll be joined by cast members, musicians, and special guests to spill behind-the-scenes stories … plus the writers, creators, and friends who brought these projects to life.

And don’t worry, we’ll still have plenty of Glee surprises along the way.

If you’re a fan of musicals - on the big screen, on TV, or anywhere in between - join us every week as we break down the songs, the stories, and the magic that made us all fall in love with musicals in the first place.
