In good "Company" on TV

What a pleasure on Wednesday night to come across a TV listing for "Great Performances" on PBS, and that they were showing the Broadway revival of "Company," starring Raul Esparza. I had the great good fortune to see the revival production twice when it was in NYC, so it was like nostalgia watching it on TV. But with all the cranes and different angles and close-ups, at times it was like seeing it a third, different time. And for once, the show was run in its entirety with only an intermission break -- not the usual PBS trick of showing the most interesting stuff during a Festival fund drive. Loved it!
