Wildly inventive new ‘Schmigadoon!’ season spoofs ‘Cabaret,’ ‘Hair’ and all that jazz

Josh (Keegan-Michael Key) and Melissa (Cecily Strong) visit a new musical comedy world, this one built around edgier shows of the 1960s and ’70s, in Season 2 of “Schmigadoon.” (Apple TV+)

They should stage “Schmigadoon!” on Broadway, for real.

Each of the first two seasons of this wildly inventive, thoroughly entertaining, beautifully cast and utterly infectious Apple TV+ series from Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio is a pitch-perfect salute/satire of some of the most famous musicals of the 20^th century, and each could be distilled into a full-length Broadway production. The premise is that great, the songs are that memorable.
