Hairspray Live! felt like a well-earned victory lap. And he checked in across our great nation with participating NBC affiliates in Houston, Baltimore, Atlanta, and Philadelphia, the only four Hairspray viewing parties in the country without wine. And he grooved, in realtime, with the official Hairspray Live! social squad. In the breaks between the show and the commercials designed to look like the show and the Oreo commercial inside the show itself, Criss announced those impressive-sounding statistics. "Three thousand lightbulbs," said Darren Criss, "50 thousand feet of audio cable, 58 cameras, over 600 members of the cast and crew!" Hairspray Live! was a massive production it didn't miss a chance to remind you.
