April 5, we bid a sad farewell to The CW’s critical darling Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Over the course of its five seasons, the musical dramedy served up special appearances by such divas as Patti Lupone and Tovah Feldsuh, sexy shirtless guys, memorably hilarious tunes, deliciously high camp drama and its fair share of LGBTQ representation. The good news is that the show went out with a bang. The Yes, It’s Really Us Singing: The ‘Crazy Ex-Girlfriend’ Concert Special! aired Friday immediately following the series finale episode at 9pm.

And there was plenty to choose from: The songwriters of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend have written more than 150 tunes for the series, which has also spawned the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Live Tour and talks of a possible theatrical adaptation. cwtv.com
