When we think Peter Pan the musical, we definitely think of Girls star and daughter of Brian Williams, Allison Williams. And it's impossible to think of Captain Hook without immediately thinking of Christopher Walken, right?

Nope. Those two are not exactly our first (or ninth) pick for a live TV musical, but we're going to give them the benefit of the doubt when NBC airs Peter Pan Live! tonight. After all, they can both sing and act. But a musical? Live? We're praying for them.

Hey, it might be a smash and we'll be eating our words tomorrow. But not without making a drinking game out of this first, because we don't want to grow up quite yet.

As always, we have to remind you all to drink responsibility, lest you become like this dude who broke into a salon and ate all the hot pockets. This drinking game will be most effective (and less sad) if it's done with three or more people. Have fun and cheers!

Take a Sip:

•Every time Christopher Walken pauses between a line

•Every time you feel the urge to scream "Rufi-oooooooo!"

•Every time you or someone else does scream "Rufi-oooooooo!"

•Every time the words "grow up!" are in a song

•For every missed note

•Every time you or someone else notices they changed something from the original musical

•Every time Peter takes flight

•Every time you or someone else wants to "pour one out" for Robin Williams

•Whenever someone says Sound of Music is better or worse than Peter Pan

•Every time someone has a suggestion for next year's musical event 

Do a Shot:

•Every time you question the choice of fishnets on Peter's sleeves

•If someone in your viewing party starts talking in a British accent

•When someone asks: "Isn't Scandal on Thursdays? Are you DVRing it?"

•When you or someone else realizes that Scandal is a repeat tonight

•Every time there is a wardrobe malfunction

•Every time there is a sword fight

Finish Your Drink:

•Every time one of Allison's Girls co-stars tweet about how amazing she is

•Whenever Peter Pan crows

•Whenever anyone says the Disney version is better

•Every time you feel an overwhelming desire to turn it off and watch Hook instead

•Every time you or someone else comments on how Allison Williams as a boy is still prettier than most girls

•Every time you or someone else screams out "yarrr!" like a pirate

Waterfall:

•If there is a wiring mishap, drink until it's resolved

•Every time there is an awkward silence from a missed cue, drink until the next line is said

•If you have to clap for Tinkerbell, drink until everyone in your group stops clapping

•If there is a song you've never heard of, drink until it's over

•If there is a song you have heard of, drink until it's over

Chug an Entire Beer/Glass of Wine/Mixed Drink:

•You don't have a single mocking thing to say about the show. You are clearly not liquored up enough.

You can also play this game with water, pop (yeah, we said "pop" and not "soda"), or hell, even pudding if you want to get weird. Or, make up your own rules if you don't like ours! We're OK with that. Because we follow the gospel of Ron Freakin' Swanson:

Peter Pan Live! airs tonight at 8 p.m. on NBC.

(E! and NBC are both part of the NBCUniversal family.)
