2023-2024 Broadway Season Ranked

I saw every new show that opened on Broadway in the 2023-2024 season. Once more, perfectly normal and not at all cost-prohibitive. Compared to seasons' past, this one was plentiful in new musicals and utterly bereft of quality. Usually I have at least four shows that rewire my entire circuitry, but not this time.
Do you have strong opinions on any of these new shows? Are you filled with unstoppable rage at this list? Do you agree wholeheartedly? Discuss.

BROADWAY DIVAS SUPERLATIVES: And the Tony Goes to...
Video Clips Beneath the Cut: More Polls
youtube
So, two of these three shows didn't release trailers on youtube, so that's their loss. Bit odd from a marketing standpoint, but hey, why bother when your whole show is just sold on your big movie star lead. (I'm not bitter or anything.)
Anyway, please enjoin the ENTIRETY of Purlie Victorious on PBS.
