User blog:Bigpurplemuppet99/Pokemon Live! As NBC's Future Musical Telecast?

Many of you may or may not know that when the original Pokemon Series aired (which was also when 4Kids distributed Pokemon by the way), there was a touring musical of the show called "Pokemon Live!". This featured some very interesting things in there that were not/probably semi-/ canon to anime. This feautre Pokeshipping being one-sided on Misty's side. Delia Ketchum, Ash's mother, use to date Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, long before meeting Ash's father. Briefly, Team Rocket somehow finally captured Pikachu and show it to Giovanni too. And boy, I wonder what would happen if someone modernized and updated the musical to fit the standard of the current version of the anime.

Recently since 2013, NBC has done live telecasts of musicals. The first was The Sound of Music Live! which was big in ratings. This tradition later went on with ''​Peter Pan Live!, The Wiz Live! and Hairspray Live!''​. Next year two musicals will be telecasted. Jesus Christ Superstar in April 2018 and Bye Bye Birdie (starring Jennifer Lopez) in December 2018.

Now recently someone posted a petition on change.org to hopefully get NBC and Pokemon International to collaborate and make the abandoned musical Pokemon Live! a future telecast. To get it updated and fit for old and current audiences.
