'Glee' on FOX HD - Page 70

Wow this season is awful. It's just painful to watch anymore. The characters are completely uninspired and just annoying. They really should have sent the show off on a high note at the end of season 3. Finn leading the Glee club I guess would be the shark for the show.

No idea why I am still watching this....BUT

The Sue Sylvester/Nikki Minaj song was the most cringeworthy, hilarious 3 minutes I have ever seen on TV.

Occasionally, they still do something amazing. The musical dream Shu had with he and Emma the week before singing & dancing in a rotating room was phenomenal (and expensive!). I don't know what old musical inspired it, but it was wonderful.

It's a very famous Fred Astaire creation from Royal Wedding (1951). They even used the same song.
It's more difficult to do with two people in the room, and they pulled it off.

Since AI went long last week, my DVR cut off during the "Footloose" song/dance.....did I miss anything of importance after that?

++! Jane Lynch was screamingly funny and her send up of Nikki Minaj was dead on. I actually thought that last night's show was one of the best of this very uneven season. It had a lot of throwback to the first two seasons in the terms of the story lines and the musical performances. When her stint on Glee ends, I can't wait to see where Naya Rivera's career goes. The girl is smokin hot, can sing and moves pretty well.

BTW, did anyone notice that Heather Morris was nowhere to be seen last night. I can't recall that ever happening before.

That's the spirit! ... Now we're back to the Glee thread of old.

I rewatched the "How to be a Heartbreaker" number with Brody and the other "escorts " with the Cougars. It is very impressively staged and shot. Glee can still hit one out if the park on occasion.

I've stuck with Glee, even as it got more erratic over the past two seasons but last night's episode left a very bad taste. It was like a Law and Order "ripped from the headlines" stunt to me. Gunshots at the school, terrified kids, confessions on video tape and to top it off, the glee club members doing everything that you shouldn't do in this situation? Feh! On top of that, being broadcast during a week of very high and intense emotions surrounding this issue in the real world was a triumph of poor timing. And then, at least IMHO, doing a terrible disservice to kids with Down's Syndrome by preying on Becky's justified insecurities and having her bring a gun to school? Has anyone ever heard of one instance of a Down's student bringing a firearm to school? I doubt it. There are times when Ryan Murphy gets too clever for his own good and last night's show was an example.

Has anyone ever heard of a show that did a "school shooting" episode that actually turned into a "accidental firing of a gun" episode (but still playing it like a serious school shooting episode)? That's beyond ridiculous, even for Glee.

Not to mention they don't give you the payoff on the catfish storyline.

IMHO, this is an episode where even the most ardent Glee fans (if they exist and are over the age of 17) can't argue when you say it is beyond terrible.

Nor did they shift back to the New York part of the show and Rachel prepping for her Funny Girl audition which they've been teasing for weeks. At this point the NYC scenes are more interesting than the ones in Lima. The whole "trials and tribulations" prior to Regionals gets old. I noticed that Sam Larson wasn't in the show this week and Vanessa Lengies (Sugar Motta) who is painfully underutilized anyway, was once more nowhere to be seen. One of the problems with the show now is that Lea, Amber, Diana, Naya and even Corey were so dominant, playing finely etched characters, that the show's current Lima cast, while very talented, just can't measure up to the originals. Maybe that's why we get outlandish stunts like this week's episode as the show runners try to hold everyone's attention.
