Hairspray Live! was quite the exciting TV event for those who really love Hairspray, no matter if we're talking about the 1988 movie, the Broadway play or the 2007 big-screen remake (or all three).
But with the Adam Shankman-directed film -- starring Zac Efron, John Travolta, Nikki Blonsky and more -- being the reprise of most recent memory, it's hard not to compare the movie musical version to NBC's live-action special. So we did.
Check out the differences we noticed between the 2007 movie musical and Hairspray Live! below.
Noreen and Doreen Are Missing
Perhaps one of the smaller details that only mega Hairspray movie fans will notice (Noreen and Doreen weren't in the Broadway version), there's nobody with rhyming names in the role call during "Nicest Kids in Town." InHairspray Live!, Luanne is followed by a girl named "Kooks," while in the movie it's Joey, a quick-take of several people and then the ever-so-memorable Noreen and Doreen. Sorry gals, guess you didn't make the cut for live television.
