Musicals as a whole don't make a lot of sense to me. Here's a bunch of people, going along their normal business, doing whatever it is that they do, then all of a sudden they break into song and start running around all over the screen...if that happened at the grocery store or post office they'd all be committed to the loony bin. I can sort of understand the occasional romantic melody sung by a courting beau, or a sad lament from a jilted lover, but when they all start running around singing about the weather or some inanimate object I gotta just shake my head.

She always looks hot, but I'll poke my head in while Gail's watching that tonight just to confirm.

Who was the moron that came up with that idea? Had to be a woman, or something similar.
Samuel Goldwyn and Louis Mayer, I think...I dunno. MGM was always touted for their "lavish musicals". Whoever it was, they didn't do future generations of straight men any favors.
It may have been cool 80 years ago but I think it's time that genre dies a quick and painless death, rather than putting us through a slow and painful one. Burn the tapes. Pass a law.

Ain't gonna happen. If Lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood couldn't kill the genre, and they sure as hell tried, who else could?
I'm thinking Chicago could be in with a shot, just by virtue of the massive number of albums they put out. But if it's a group that came around much later than any of the ones that have been mentioned, I'm afraid it's too new to me.
