Season Two of Smash premieres Tuesday night, with the cast and crew of the Marilyn Monroe bio-musical Bombshell returned to New York to continue its drive to Broadway. Need a refresher on who did what to whom in season one? Or did you not watch (or hatewatch) but are thinking about giving season two a shot? Either way, you could catch up by reading the incisive yet hilarious recaps (okay, I'm biased) posted last season. Or you could read this handy primer, covering the characters and events and other assorted highlights.
Ivy & Karen
Much of the first season focuses on the battle between Broadway chorus veteran Ivy Lynn (Megan Hilty) and fresh-faced Iowa ingenue Karen Cartwright (Katharine McPhee) to land, and keep, the role of Marilyn. They are neck and neck through the pilot and not even a duel duet of the signature song “Let Me Be Your Star” settles the question.

"Smash" has found its Marilyn Monroe in Ivy Lynn (Megan Hilty), and Karen Cartwright (Katharine McPhee) is well on her way to taking the stage as part of her first Broadway ensemble. So, what's next on "Smash"? Drama, guest stars and lots of songs.
On the docket: "Shake It Out," a Florence and the Machine cover McPhee said she enjoyed doing, "Rose's Turn," "Our Day Will Come" and in episode five, "Let's Be Bad," an original song that Hilty described as "epic."
"It can be kind of confusing because I'm Megan playing Ivy Lynn who is playing Marilyn who is playing Sugar in 'Some Like It Hot' and she's wasted so she's messing up the whole number," Hilty told HuffPost TV from the set. "But she's still kind of fantastic in some moments."
The "Some Like It Hot" number, which has been seen in some commercials, is a focal point of the episode.
