Mostly Harmless

"Did you ever wonder what Anthony Ruivivar's singing voice is like? Did you ever want to listen to Sean Hayes caress a Mel Torme tune? The answers to these and other unasked questions can be found on this NBC-themed Christmas CD.(It was a charity production for the Children's Miracle Network, so I feel like I'm kicking out some poor kid's crutches. Please consider donating directly to the worthy charity of your choice. That takes care of my guilt; back to the review.)The CD-ROM enhancements may be the best part, with interesting video tidbits from Martin Sheen, Katey Segal and others. About the music, to be positive, some tracks sound like they weren't recorded by amateur singers.If you can pick and choose the bits you enjoy, this CD is worth maybe two stars. If you just pop it in the CD player for your holiday party, it could clear the room."

Sexy Wendie

"Wendie Malick could make reading the back of a cereal box sound sexy. That is why it is such a shame to hear how she was directed on her tune of "Santa Baby". Should have been done to a slower tempo with her in a lower register and it would have been great I am sure. I bought this in a bargin bin at the thrift store and bought it only for Wendie (one of the best looking and sexy voiced woman to be found, been a fan of hers for years) and consider it a waste of a buck.

"It's for a good cause, but it won't be good for your ears. These kindly folks whould just stick to their day jobs. However, if you need an ego boost, when you sing along, you will actually sound better than those on the CD."
