Goofs:

Continuity: When the 2gether guys are taking the teddy bear test the third one Bob Buss throws is a brown one and then Mickey catches it and throws it back, it is pink.

Quotes:

Bob Buss: [while doing interview rehearsals] Okay, QT, what's your favorite color?
Jason "Q.T." McKnight: Blue.
Bob Buss: Jerry?
Jerry O'Keefe: Blue.
Bob Buss: No! It can't be blue.
Jerry O'Keefe: But it's *always* been blue. It was blue, since before QT was born.
Bob Buss: You guys! There can't be any overlap! Let's say a girl picks up an issue of Teen Beat and there's an article with you guys. Her favorite color is green - but no one in 2gether likes green, ergo no one in 2gether likes *her*, ergo she does not matter as a human being!

Battle Hymn Of The Republic

Sly, funny parody of boy band groups.

Not bad for a tv movie. The movie is a funny look at putting together a pop boy band. Funny bits include preparing answers for press interviews (and the implications of every type of answer), choosing members for their "type", rehearsing in different costumes and the mocking, silly lyrics to the songs. Good job MTV.
