...workshop of crisp final instructions--"it is imperative"--but King labored more broadly to overcome festering doubt and confusion about why they must go to Washington. He thanked his father Daddy King and others for fill-in speeches to cover his tardiness. He made a faltering joke about the tepid response of friends with their coats still on--"they act like it's cold in my church"--and betrayed rare unease in a defensive speech...

...with variety shows from the '70s and a sense of glamour from Dynasty. The participants include thickly accented dancers and judges who add to the cheesy Eurovision Song Contest vibe. The set contains enough mirror balls, fairy lights and glitter to be visible from space. The songs are tepid wedding-band versions of American pop hits. This is a show you would not be surprised to see if you turned on the TV in your hotel room in, say, Bulgaria...
