Tuesday’s Video Pick | Jesus Christ Superstar
September 22, 2009 · Print This Article
This week’s pick is inspired by C-Monster’s End of summer at PS1 in NYC post. I must confess, I love musicals and when I saw a photo of of the Jesus Christ Superstar album I knew it had to make it’s way onto the picks. I don’t think anyone can deny Carl Anderson’s talent as Judas. Ugh, such a guilty pleasure.

This was such an unexpected treat! I don’t disagree with you on Carl Anderson as Judas, but Josh Mostel as King Herod – the best character in the whole musical!

Kerri,
I am glad you liked it. It was a toss up between Herod’s song and Judas. Both are equally fantastic.
