My one would be the final polish and out-of-town tryouts for Follies. Not that I think it is Sondheim's best musical (though it is second behind Sweeney Todd in my mind), but the unique combination of personalities that were working on the show would be fascinating to watch.

I couldn't find the race-walking on TV, but I really wanted to watch it, just to see if it was ridiculous as it was in that Malcolm in the Middle episode. Did you find the canoe racing a bit weird (not the kayaking, but the one where they are on bended knee)?
