My overall reaction...good, not great. I really liked the Little Lincoln character. I think part of that may have been that Lincoln is held up as such an iconic figure in the U.S. that any tweaking of him is enjoyable. Obviously, Little Lincoln and Actual Lincoln are two different things, but still...but even though I liked him, I was glad when Little Lincoln's uppance finally came.
I also have to say that the musical number wasn't all it could have been. I'm glad they did it, and I hope they do more, but for me, on a musical level, something just wasn't there. The tempo seemed a bit off, for one thing. Also, the lyrics just didn't really do much for me. Can't really explain why, but there it is. Still, pretty darn entertaining, all in all.
