Hairspray Live! NBC, 8/7 c

1985, John Waters wrote an article for Baltimore Magazine about the reunion of performers from teen dance show "The Buddy Deane Show," and it sparked an idea. This idea was the first step toward his creation of the 1988 cult classic film "Hairspray," starring Ricki Lake and drag performer Divine.

The "Hairspray" story has been told a number of times since Waters' film, including in the form of a Broadway musical, and the latest iteration is NBC's live production, "Hairspray Live!," which is set to air December 7 at 8 p.m. EST.

There's an edginess and risk-taking you don't get from 'Take 24.'

We saw promos for Wicked and Bye Bye Birdie.
