The tickets are about go on sale. Judging by how quickly her site crashed, I'm guessing there's a chance they sell out.

NYC sold out in like three minutes, but I nabbed two seats! I hope my girlfriend can see from the balcony. It was heartbreaking watching all the dots for available seats disappear rapidly, but then I realized that in another TicketMaster tab I had seats reserved! Whew.

The ticket sales process was bullshit. Ticketfly said I got the tickets, but then had a "hiccup" and basically took them away. Now I've been on hold with their customer service for 40 minutes.

I just panicked again and made sure mine were confirmed. That sucks for you. :( I hope she adds more shows, because I realize I only got tickets through pure luck and so many people didn't.

After 90 minutes, the TicketFly customer service basically said "whoops looks like your order didn't' go through."

There's a lot of suspicion that bots bought them out because they're being resold right now for like $300+ each.

edit: I guess they came down since they were $300 but the price is still nuts:

Same thing happened to my friend who was getting tickets for the Chicago show. Hopefully they add more showed.

The last thing I went to that was sort of similar was Bob's Burgers live about two years ago. I had no real issue getting tickets there. Has it gotten worse since then?

It's not like Rachel Bloom and her manager can prepare for it, because the tickets are sold by someone else, all she does is promise a show. It's all on TicketMaster and the other companies selling tickets. The only thing she could do would be to hold them in a larger venue (more money up front that her manager/producer/whoever might not be prepared to lay out) or hold multiple shows (up to her schedule, and if even one of those shows doesn't sell out I don't know how much of a hit they take), am I right?

I guess I'm not really mentally prepared for the live show market. I thought I could just wait until the weekend and maybe not get the 110% best seats but still something reasonable. This is a relatively niche show. :smith:

The making of, focusing on the last two episodes, is also very good.. Choice quote:

quote:

There was some initial concern that the girls’ parents might balk at the content of the number, but luckily, they approved. Burns recalls: “One of the moms was like, ‘Well you came out of my vagina,’ and the little girl was like, ‘Mom!’ And she was like, ‘Well, it’s true. I gave birth. It’s in the song.’”

It really feels that with the uncertainty about being renewed they had to play it too safe and rush to close storylines before the end of the season.

I hope like hell that is not the final episode however.

This whole season felt off, but that last episode was really jarring. I felt like it had two episode's worth of plots crammed into one.

Paula's song was awesome though. My pregnant wife really loved it.
