2009 Macy's Thanksgiving Parade - Bye Bye Birdie

[ycsdramaqueen]

Okay, one year after this was on Macy's, my school performed Bye Bye Birdie. The year after we did Willy Wonka, they started coming out with new Wonka candy commercials. I'm hoping this means a Once Upon a Mattress revival within the next year in accordance to this year's show?

[knmlover]

What's that in his pants @ 2:49?

[knmlover]

@ObssesivelyYourz How DARE you!!

[soccer52blu]

damn! look at those high kicks!! :O

[picardythirds]

John stamos, you clearly need to do more musical theatre and less TV :D great job.

And yes, it's supposed to be a little awkward. His character is a grown momma's boy trying to cheer up a bunch of teen girls :) context is important :)

[tasinmislam636]

I don't remember Uncle Jesse being THAT awkward... I'm gonna go watch some Full House now, for no reasons at all...

[5656prettyinpink]

I love this play!! Were doing it at my school this year!!! I cannot wait for it to come!! its gonna b great

[JubalCalif]

First time in fifty years??? I'm greatly surprised it took that long for this early 60's classic Broadway musical comedy to be revived on the Great White Way! If John & the young ladies were any cooler, they'd be frozen! What a cute clip! THANKS so much for sharing it with us! CHEERS!!! :-)

[geebeeman1]

He's looking like Jerry Lewis with that slicked-up hair!

[denzakilla]

omggg i love this play

[lwclark96]

How come he sang better in this performance than he does on stage?

[MeowcatBissy]

@lwclark96 I don't want to believe it was prerecorded but...........

[mikokat]

@MeowcatBissy Everything vocal is pre-recorded for the Thanksgiving Day Parade. I wish they didn't though.

[sk8terpurple3]

0:38 it's the girl who played cassie in 13!

[pricefan2007]

As much as he impersonated Elvis on Full House, I can't imagine him playing Albert Peterson.

[ilfranchi]

is he really about to fall off the platform at 1:44? or it is just part of the choreography?

[MeowcatBissy]

@ilfranchi I doubt he was really going to, I think it's choreographed

[misslindseyxoxo]

no

[1996gymnasticsfan]

He's still hot

[ilovehs]

I saw him rehearse this.. I had no idea it was him until I watched for a few and then I was like holy crap!!! I danced in the parade and it was wonderful. I also saw shrek the musical rehearse as well as cyndi lauper

[xodancer4life26xo]

im doing this song for my tap solo! i love this song! lol ;)

[Goingbeach]

Stamos is talented and versatile!

He's Greek!

[ycsdramaqueen]

2:20 If our Albert Peterson would do that, I would die happy XD

[Coristutoris]

lololol me and my brother watched this and couldnt stop laughing!!!!! How can people take this seriously?? We watch the parades JUST so we can laugh at the chessey broadway shows!

[DimeraFan28]

I Still Think It Would Be So Awesome If John Stamos was the Guest Host Of WWE RAW.

[biinamiyu]

ジェシーおいたん！！

He is so cool!!

[karlaabc123]

haha i did this song for a tap dance in 4th grade

[someone481]

I think he was a great Albert. Albert is usually more geeky, but I liked the way Stamos did it, he was a natural on stage.

[Snape1918]

If he was a little younger he could have been Conrad Birdie even though he makes a great Albert.

[rogerbartbiggestfan2]

No one will ever be as good as Dick Van Dyke though.

[DimeraFan28]

wouldn't it be awesome if John Stamos Guest Hosted "Raw"?.

[DorisMJFan]

2:21 LOL XD

[MirandaAugust64]

Is the song pre-recorded???

[brdwychc21]

@MirandaAugust64 they always are for parades.

[ycsdramaqueen]

...I heard John Stamos is playing Emma's dentist boyfriend on Glee. Dear god I hope it's right.

[theutrgirl]

I Knew he looked familiar!

[pika23]

awwww...I thought John was gonna be conrad birdie...given his rock persona on full house, he would have been awesome. He's young enough looking too...but I guess I can see him as Dick Van Dykes character Albert.

[LitaWhistleDog]

UNCLE JESSE

[daniiirouuu]

i love his laugh at 2:20!!!! haha

[Pinkpanda73]

whooooo!!!!hooooooo! go uncle jesse!!!!!

[BeccaEve94]

i wonder how old those girls are cus a lot can pull off being about 15. (i know from experience they usually use roughly 20 year olds for teenage roles) fair play to them.

[FutureLITTLEMERMAID]

@BeccaEve94 They decided to use an actual teenage ensemble for this cast. The youngest girl 13 (girl swing) and the oldest was 22 (male swing)

[DassMorris]

He's so nimble!! Seriously!

[pinkgolf31]

around 1:44 when he falls is that apart of the choreography? or did he really fall? the arms seems so dramatic...i'm not sure

[BroadwayBabeify]

@pinkgolf31 it wasnt part of the choreography but he covered up for it really well.

[BroadwayBabeify]

deanna is so good during this song and they gave her the funniest part, too.

[GeorgeLopezRoxxx]

Well in Twitter someone asked him if he was still goig be doing it a few days after today cuz she's going and he said no do there's still more shows

[moviesxoxo]

hmm thats weird. nahh its closed. :(

[GeorgeLopezRoxxx]

Well on twitter someone asked him if he's gonna be at the show a few days after today cuz she's going but he said no so he's just leaving today

[GeorgeLopezRoxxx]

It's not closing Jan 24, that's when John is leaving

[moviesxoxo]

no its closing tomorrow. It was when John was supposed to leave but they made it a limited run

[HappyMadisonDude]

[YourNewConquest]

[dadofasonofagun]

Fantastic!

[campodonicm2]

[cyoung55391]

the black girl in the lime green was in "13" the musical.

[Broadwayfreak411]

Ya, as Cassie. Her name is Brynn Williams

[tiffpink]

@cyoung55391 was Allie Trimm from 13 in this too?

[theatrekid07]

Yay I was so happy when I heard he was doing this

[linaresx]

I've never seen a broadway show before, I watched this on TV, a little advise, when on TV wear looser pants. From 2:47 on I felt things got a little too personal between me and uncle Jesse. I'm just sayin'

[fredalltheway]

i just bought tickets :)

[grandywins]

Don't believe the reviews. This show is adorable and is sold out almost every show.

[PhantomDawg594]

He was a pretty decent Guido in Nine a couple years ago, as well. He's one of the better television-to-Broadway actors we have.

[chrisrod718]

he actually played the M.C from Cabaret on b'way a few years ago.

[BlueManFanGirl67]

OMG! iITS UNCLE JESSE!!!!

[MissSmileyGurl23]

@BlueManFanGirl67 ik i was so excited to see that he got casted!!

[tylerk45]

@Gigit03 shut up

[Tbrandy123]

[italianman1992]

Wow . . . never pictured John "Uncle Jesse" Stamos on Broadway!

[brocktree4]

Have mercy!

[XXpimpilicious]

lmfao I was just thinking that! xD

[faggyboy2]

i love the choreo in this. he makes it work so well! and he's a very good singer obviously. i REALLY want to see this

[josa19042]

Any one knows where i can watch jimmy fallon and the roots perform?

[randomprincess919]

i absolutely love this choreography!

[BroadwayMusicalFreak]

That was okay... I DIDN'T think it was awesome. I think the scene could have been done way better.

[pjsloves5]

julia <3 great job!

[RosesNightengales]

JESSE!!!! O_O HAHA. HE'S AWESOME.

[lkkjuiind]

ahhh i love these girls! im friends with two of the boys in the shows theyre so nice when we visit :)

[wileyk209zback]

Uncle Jesse! LOL

[legallywicked16]

[albuginea9]

[jasminehare1]

[zadieziba]

Broadwayworld hates you too.

[Maestrojosh87]

Yeah, so do I. I stopped posting in that board for a while because they can be such killjoys.

[irishmom58]
