High School Musical

Having recently played a small part in a version of High School Musical for my basketball team, I figured it was time to see this now decade old, made-for-TV cultural phenomena. It was everything I expected for a decade old, made-for-TV musical. Cliques and angst appropriate for high school, catchy songs, jocks and nerds crossing social classes and opening the eyes of their friends to solidify an "everyone is valuable for who they are" social message. And all this made better by watching with my age-appropriate niece and nephews. So while I can't actually recommend this for your viewing, I will say it was a valuable filling in of a gap in my cultural wardrobe.
