In the O2 performance, all three cast members from three different London productions come together to perform in one show at the same time. Viewers will watch more than 300 "Les Miserables" performers on stage including Nick Jonas of the Jonas brothers. For nine months, Nick played the part of "Gavroche" in one of the "Les Mis" productions.
PBS execs say the show gives everyone front row seats to great arts and culture programming and a chance to see presentations of some of the greatest music of all time. A DVD of the performance was released February 22.
It's ironic "Les Miz" airs against new episodes of ABC's 'Desperate Housewives', a surreal drama where many of the characters' pasts are constantly catching up with them. The "Desperate Housewives" season seems extra long because every other week ABC has been hosting special events. Last week The Oscars interrupted the show.
When viewers last tuned in, Wisteria Lane housewife Gabbby Solis and husband Carlos visited her small and rural Texas hometown to reconcile demons from her past.
Housewife Bree's young boyfriend, played by Megan Fox's husband, Keith has to reconcile his past with a homeless ex-girlfriend who moved away to Florida with the young son he has just discovered. Bree paid the girlfriend to take her son and go away, but then had a change of heart.
All eyes are preparing for the season premiere of NBC's "Celebrity Apprentice." Although there are many stars on the show tonight, the spats between "Real Housewives of Atlanta" personality NeNe Leakes and former talk show host and attorney Star Jones' are expected to draw huge attention.
"Celebrity Apprentice" will draw a huge audience from Bravo's cable crowd who tune in faithfully and in large numbers to view NeNe and the cast of Atlanta on Bravo during the regular season. Leakes' appearance is expected to draw many "Real Housewives of Atlanta" fans as the ATL wives' season ended a couple of weeks ago.
Star Jones was content to ignore Leakes and not the let the rumors of the fighting between her and Leakes take over. But Jones couldn't resist temptation and responded via Twitter about the ugliness some time ago.
Apparently, the bad words and bad blood between the two began off the camera when Nene called Star a fallen star. Star, reportedly made comments about Leakes's failing marriage which in turn left Star open for criticism about her celebrated marriage with a known bisexual.
Star said she tires of comments about Al's sexuality and her divorce that happened a long time ago.
"Celebrity Apprentice" ends at 11 EST, "Desperate Housewives" ends at 10 p.m. the same time "Les Miserables" ends its four hour show on PBS. 'Brothers and Sisters" airs at 10 p.m on ABC, still in competition with 'Celebrity Apprentice" and Donald Trump's two hour premiere.
After a full day of NBA basketball on network television, the arts and entertainment choices tonight are plenty, but PBS's performance of "Les Miserable" is a best bet and best pick.
It's also a great time for PBS to air the colorful and spectacular live London' performance of "Les Miz" because PBS is still urging the GOP not to cut the network's funding.
