UnGLEEful- Page 11

The number of various storylines has become comical. And disturbing.

But OF COURSE the Pepper girl knew Lea Michele's character. Even though we had never seen her before - how did she know that Lea was obsessed with Schuster?

So confusing.

Because it's not the real world. It's its own reality! Anything can happen, even if it contradicts what happened last week/last month/earlier in the episode.

And I liked how the only previously was about how Quinn's parents didn't know she was pregnant. Way to telegraph the entire upcoming episode, Fox.

I hate most of this show yet (like others here) I still watch. It's almost become a game to see what absurd plot-lines they bring up, (then drop) and to see how out-of-character certain characters have become. Two observations:

1. I'd bet that we will NEVER see Sue's sister again. This was a quick, easy, pathetic way to show her "humanity".
2. The more I see and hear of Finn, the more I am convinced
that this was a really horrible case of mis-casting. He
has no personality, and CANNOT sing. The only time I laughed last nite was when Kurt told him his "voice was his weapon", or something like that.

I look forward to Jonathan Groff's episodes, since they might bring some life (and decent singing) to this show.

"The only time I laughed last nite was when Kurt told him his "voice was his weapon", or something like that."

I laughed at that too. I mean, was Kurt having him sing to Quinn in front of her family a legitimate attempt to make things good between them, or was it part of his plan to bone Finn by causing tension between them? I have no idea anymore.

It also seems to me that trying to really sell a ballad and make it incredibly moving and passionate THEN singing it to a teenage girl is just asking for a lawsuit. Then turning around and trying to communicate your desire for said girl to stop crushing on you through a mash-up? Come on, at least TRY to make the songs flow naturally.

My bet for the plot that will be abandoned: Next week, Quinn will have moved back into her parents' house and no one will mention it again. I'm banking on something big.

For how many weeks has Mr. Schu been saying "Sectionals are just a few weeks away."

Agree with previous poster: Does Kurt think he can "turn" Finn? I don't get it. Doesn't this go against the "People are born gay or straight" theory? Kurt feels he was born gay and could never be straight. Why does think Finn could be any different?

And, I too, really don't like this show anymore, but I keep watching it. Very upset no Sue Sylvester in the last episode.

And Modern Family - LOL, milk out the nose, funny.

At this point I watch it for Matt and Lea, and am glad they decided to take some real Broadway talent for this show. If only they had casted Aaron Tveit for Finn like they were considering... Would still need new writers, though.

I like how Lea Michele went from "STOP RUINING MY LIFE" to being in love with Matthew Morrison just because he sang some ballad. And if he's so scared of the legal issues, driving her home by himself is just not very smart.

Yeah, it is hard to buy Finn as the amazing singer everyone thinks he is. Kurt and Artie are much better.

I'm sure Groff will sing well, but you won't be able to tell because he'll sound like a robot.

What the heck is with everyone acting like Quinn's pregnancy is entirely Puck's fault? It takes two to tango.

This show is completely inane! And I really want to like it. I try each week, but I just can't.

I'm listening to the Glee CD, and am struck by how loud and often Lea breathes. You can hear every breath she takes in the songs.(Same with Kevin McHale on Dancing with Myself)

What I don't understand is how Finn thinks he's the father if they never had sex, and how Matthew Morrison doesn't realize his wife isn't pregnant - I assume they aren't having sex either....

WTF? "Hey, come to our school to watch us sing and then we'll invade YOUR number!"

That mashup. WHAT THE EFF? I like glee and I love Hair...putting them together just makes me sick!

[Just_John]

Posted: 11/25/09 at 9:59pm

What I don't understand is why they have 3 or 4 kids in the Glee club but they have never said a word.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

I wonder what handicap they are going mawkishly fetishize next.

Every episode pretty much reverts back situationally to where it was when it started. Every episode.

ActingIsLovee-i completely agree with you. The only thing i could think of was it was intentionally supposed to be that bad. I did learn tonight that Hair should never be used in a remix of any kind (especially in a mesh with a Beyonce song).

Posted: 11/26/09 at 1:08am

I don't know where to start with the show this week.

Worst. Episode. Ever.

Tonight was just...bad. I definitely downloaded the renditions of Imagine and True Colors though, but the ep itself was just so jumpy and ridiculous that I had issues with it.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 12/2/09 at 10:47pm

I thought this was the worst episode so far, then the scene where Will got mad at Terri happened and I just laughed and laughed. I love when he cries. And then I still thought it was the worst episode so far.

I forgot OCD Lady (is she still OCD) was marrying the coach. I swear that got called off.

I liked when will said "Who said anything about DIVORCE?" Didn't he say like one scene before he was thinking about leaving his wife? His acting was really bad in this episode.

I was just confused for this entire episode.

Why are the kids SO bipolar about being in Glee Club?? Didn't the last episode end on a really positive note, with them singing together as a happy group?

One picture causes the kids to completely turn their backs on the Club? So many questions. I don't think they'll ever be answered or resolved. Ugh.

That whole scene with Will and Terri was just too much - It sincerely felt like they were mocking the entire thing. I just don't even know.

And the songs this week were...well...just strange.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 12/3/09 at 12:38am

I thought it was going to be a dream! The Will and Terri scene, I mean. Matty GoingStale with the glycerin in his eyes. Him grabbing her. Him getting all actor mad. It was so gay.

Have all the other students forgot that stutter girl used to stutter? I can't wait till the season final when Artie walks.

And weren't these pictures for the yearbook (I make a vow that I delete it as soon as I watch it, even if there was something I missed)? They get their yearbooks the next day in Ohio? In Ohio where it never gets cold? In Ohio where Glee Club means Show Choir? In Ohio where the pregnant girl throws herself all over a mattress.

About ten minutes in I thought this was going to be it for me and I was going to give up this filthy habit like I gave up cigarettes. But that epic kitchen scene. All those Marys on the Carrie thread misunderstanding what camp actually IS needs to see THAT scene.

Uh-oh. Sue is trying to destroy them again. Who F*CKING cares?

[MusicSnob1]

Posted: 12/3/09 at 12:42am

I just want to see Kurt go straight and f*ck the fat black chick.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 12/3/09 at 12:43am

I still don't understand why - and I mean this beyond BWW - I was the only one who thought it was so rude and patronizing for them to totally bust up on that deaf people number last week?

[MusicSnob1]

Posted: 12/3/09 at 12:45am

Because it ended tastefully.

I, too, found it offensive and strange at the beginning of the song. But they attempted to find some consolation in the fact that these deaf kids were able to inspire the cripple/black chick/gay/jock/blonde whore/asian/etc./etc. (other stereotypes) and ended as a unit.

I don't agree with it but that's part of the reason it's not receiving as much attention as it should. Had they continued to just make fun of deaf kids throughout the entire song, it would be a different story... I think.


eta: I just can't wait to sit down and make my list of questions for this Fall season. It's ending next week, you know, Phyllis.

CAN YOU SURVIVE UNTIL APRIL WITHOUT YOUR BELOVED "GLEE"???

Both of you are taking this fictional television show a little to seriously.

Posted: 12/3/09 at 12:54am

Ahahaha, that was so bad it was almost good. Another point I caught is that, yes, actually Ken IS that vindictive. He's the one who made the football players ditch Glee Club just because he was jealous of Will.

I'm so sick of the "NOBODY LIKES GLEE CLUB" storylines.

And why would Terri keep her fake stomach in a drawer like that? Come on.
