'Real Life: The Musical'

Do you wish people sang more? You know, just around the office or at home? No? OK, but if your answer was yes, you might want to check out this new reality series. Each week a vocal coach, choreographer and music producers help people create a "flash musical" to express themselves and surprise someone they love. Tonight a 26-year-old prepares to sing a Lady Gaga song to her best friend. 10 p.m. Friday on OWN (seattletimes.com/tvlistings).
