It's the end of the month already, which means it's time for our new feature: the most read and most commented on posts of the previous month.  

So, here you go:

• The most read post of the month:  Fun on a Friday: A cartoon actor that is oh so real.  (once again proving that what you, just like every audience, really want, is some fun.)
• The most commented on post of the month:  My Top 5 Broadway Special Effects (once again proving that having a spectacle doesn't hurt either.)

Since this is the end of last month of the year, stay tuned for Monday's post:  The 10 Most Popular Posts of the Year!
