Chicago finally made it to Broadway, Gwen really gave it to Bob, and Liza saved the day. But what did Twitter think about all this?
Amber Treadway
Everyone – including director and playwright Amber Treadway – was talking about Gwen reading Bob for filth:

Caissie St. Onge
All that Fosse flair reminded Busy Tonight writer/producer Caissie St. Onge of another groundbreaking dancer:
More Content from MetrosourceWatching Fosse/Verdon, then falling down my favorite rabbit hole, YouTube videos demonstrating how obviously inspired Michael Jackson’s dance style (particularly Billie Jean) was by Bob Fosse, particularly in his role as the snake in “The Little Prince.”

Alan Sepinwall
Rolling Stone Critic Alan Sepinwall reminded us that – even with all Michelle Williams’ “Razzle Dazzle”, you never know what will happen come Emmy time:
It's funny how last summer, Amy Adams seemed a lock to win a ton of awards for Sharp Objects. Then Patricia Arquette swept the winter awards for Dannemora and seemed unbeatable at Emmy time. And now here comes Williams. A really impressive group. https://t.co/vr5yqudP2m

Katie Kawa
Katie Kawa of “Nerdy Girl Notes” still can’t get Chita and Gwen doing the episode’s title song out of her head:
I've been singing "Nowadays" nonstop since last night's #FosseVerdonFX so I hope my coworkers like Chicago. pic.twitter.com/PxtKci8B6n

Alex Lacamoire
And Fosse/Verdon Supervising Music Producer Alex Lacamoire gave us a glimpse of that very same moment behind the scenes:

Tim Cummings
Meanwhile, actor and author Tim Cummings screen-capped one of Gwen’s more traumatic moments:
When Fosse tells you that Liza’s gonna replace you in CHICAGO after you inadvertently swallowed confetti during a performance and it screwed up your voice so bad you have to have surgery. #FosseVerdonFX pic.twitter.com/fQsPJxgsH4

Lin-Manuel Miranda
Our adored and adorable Lin-Manuel Miranda (along with special guests) gave us another taste of the music of Chicago:
One last #FosseVerdonFX singalong:

And for his final watch party, he has promised us the most special guest of all:
Next week is the last episode of #FosseVerdonFX.
I’ll only have one guest on my couch, the only way to say goodbye:
Nicole Fosse.
Can’t wait to watch with you.— Lin-Manuel Miranda (@Lin_Manuel) May 22, 2019
