I actually thought this ep was better than last week's. I tend to get really bored during this show when there isn't a musical number happening.
I agree that Jane Lynch's character needs a better motivation. Right now there are no funding problems, so why does she want Glee to go so badly? Right now I feel like she has some personality disorder. Even the cheerleader who has more of a reason (she's scared to lose her boyfriend) has lightened up, so what gives?
Also, I just don't think Lea Michele's character is a likeable enough lead. I feel her personality is uneven and it's hard for me to get attached to her.
Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM!
