Critic Reviews of "The Wiz Live"
Rolling StoneDecember 09, 2015This show was a treat to watch. Please, NBC: remember to keep making them this good.
The AtlanticDecember 07, 2015If Thursday night's The Wiz Live! shared the exuberant punctuation of 2013's The Sound of Music Live! and last year's Peter Pan Live!, it surpassed both of those previous efforts in terms of energy, spirit, and watchability.
NPRDecember 07, 2015At a time when the country is reeling... there is no better time to experience a soothing, expertly executed celebration of family, friendship and black culture.
Orlando SentinelDecember 07, 2015Maybe the sincere production of The Wiz Live! will inspire young theater lovers, but it didn't soar.
Hollywood ReporterDecember 04, 2015The most important elements in the success of The Wiz Live! come from Leon and Robinson and their accumulation of a rather remarkable assortment of talent to populate the stages at Grumman Studios.
New York PostDecember 04, 2015Imagine that: a TV musical you could enjoy and not just hate-watch for the sake of a few pithy tweets. NBC might well be on the right track.
Common Sense MediaDecember 08, 2015Brilliant, star-studded performance is great family fare.
We Got This CoveredDecember 05, 2015While it may not be enough to renew every musical-lover's faith in live-to-TV performances, The Wiz Live! certainly proves that musicals have a place on television right now - and not just in late-night monologue jokes.
Yahoo! TVDecember 04, 2015A noble effort with flashes of amusement and an abundance of talent, the new version of The Wiz on Thursday night couldn't overcome a few key flaws and the fact that this simply isn't a classic piece of material.
GuardianDecember 04, 2015Everyone agrees, Shanice Williams will ease on down the road to super-stardom after this performance. Her voice was incredible and her performance top-notch.
Boston HeraldDecember 04, 2015NBC's annual musical finally lived up to the hype, the hope and the promise of great live TV. "The Wiz Live!" last night was expertly cast and lavishly produced and introduced the world to a new superstar.
VoxDecember 04, 2015It was exuberant, and even a little cocky. It was different from anything else NBC has aired all year, but hopefully its success will inspire more programs like it in the future.
