Must See TV

While painting last night, I watched the Stanley Cup. After that was over, I was flipping channels for something else to watch. As luck would have it, I came across some of the best television I have ever seen. It was Great Performances on our local public broadcasting station and in particular, an episode called Operatunity.

Given our country's (myself included) ongoing obsession for American Idol, I found Operatunity to be incredibly more than just a singing competition. It a little bit of Brassed Off and Little Voice, only it was real and so much more moving.

I don't know if or when PBS plans on rebroadcasting the episode, but it is worth looking out for.
