Any Gleeks?

[AdoreMyDogs]

"Thank you grilled cheesus" had me crying from laughing so hard, and of course "I Want To Hold Your Hand" was stunning and heart-breaking. I'm a total Gleek!

[Karen]

Yes, I was worried what song they would choose, but "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" fit perfectly, and heartachingly sung. That was one where I got tears in my eyes, and I am usually pretty stoic watching TV.

I thought the episode really handled religion very well, and was pretty darned respectful of each character's beliefs without being preachy.

And I simply adored the "You had me a fabulous hat" line, and the outfits of people in Mercedes' church, just so very well done without making fun.

Oh, and I thought the child they chose to play younger Kurt was a GREAT choice, really looked a lot like him!

What are people's opinions about the new photo spread in GQ? I haven't read the story, so I am curious about why they went with that style of photo, but I've seen the pictures and they are pretty racy, especially Lea Michelle!

I was disappointed when I saw the photos (what they could show on TV, anyway).

I believe they took the photos last summer. Probably trying to draw in more male viewers. But, do we really need to see another crotch shot? Do we really need another photo of a guy grabbing his co-star's butt?

Did anyone see last night's show yet?

I did, and as the opening part was sung, it took me a second to figure out whose mouth it was, but I knew pretty quickly. Turns out there was some guessing online - some folks thinking it was Quinn, some thinking Tina ... but I was right on who it actually was ...



*** Did you figure it out? I am VERY visually oriented, so maybe I have an advantage.


anyway, the show revealed it today, it was









Santana - did you guess that?

i thought they did a decent job at Rocky Horror - I couldn't imagine how they were going to tame it to be acceptable at an Ohio high school, but it was pretty well put together. And I loved that they performed the show just for their own selves at the end, not an audience.

I also think Kurt's character should never sing in that low a range - it is not his best voice for sure!



Oh, and as for the GQ "controversy," I think it is a bit of a stretch - all the actors are adults, after all, they just play high school students. In poor taste? Maybe, but worthy of controversy? I don't think so ...

[Nomilynn]

I enjoyed the show last night, but I didn't really like how it ended. I didn't like how the song ended, and then it was just.... done. I'm not a huge fan of Rocky Horror either, so I wasn't super excited about it.

I knew it was Santanna as well, Karen!

So did anyone see last night's show of Glee? I watched it - we DVR everything - and thought the girl's performance of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" was so very very well done. Just moving, and not at all corny and false like some numbers can be ...

And I never even was a fan of the original song, I knew it well, but didn't really care for it ... or honestly, give it much thought.

What did you think?

And every once in a while "Moves Like Jagger" has popped into my head today, too.

[Roxyluvsme13]

I loved the performance of First Time I Ever Saw Your Face, and Moves Like Jagger. I was also really impressed with Rachel's version of Without You. I think I might actually like it more than the original.

I used to watch it every now and then during the first season but I sort of drifted away from it. I did hear that there was an Aspie character who was just an awful misrepresentation. Of course I haven't watched it myself but that is what I've been hearing.

A character with Aspergers? I can't think of who that would be. There is a girl on the show that has Down's Syndrome.

I liked last nights show. Moves Like Jagger is one of my favorite songs right now lol and I normally listen to Country. so when it came on the show last night I cheered out loud LOL. it was a sweet episode and I liked the ending

I love the episodes where you see a little crack in Sue's hard exterior

I guess her name is Sugar and she is self diagnosed. While self diagnosis is not a problem, (some people don't have the resources to get a proper diagnosis) I guess she's using it as an excuse to be really awful to a lot of people.

Yes, the character claimed to have "Self-diagnosed Aspergers" and used that as an excuse not to self-censor. She thinks that will let her get away with being just plain rude. However, now that she's "in" the group (although she cannot sing well, she can dance okay), she has toned down that behavior.

No one ever portrayed her as really having Aspergers.

Sad news today about Glee cast member Cory Monteith. Found dead in his hotel room, only 31 years old. His struggles with addiction were well know, and for now it appears they may have done him in. Rest in peace, sir. Your character touched millions of lives.

I wonder if Glee will address substance abuse and addition at all in the next season ... hard to do tastefully, but it seems more important now.

[Scooter's Mom]

This has really made me sad today. I haven't watched Glee in a year or more, but seeing someone with such a bright future leave this world so young... just makes me sad.
I have said a prayer for Cory's family as well as Glee cast-mate Lea Michelle, since they had been dating.

[Casper]

I saw this early this morning and was quite surprised and saddened by it. I've never kept up with his personal life, so I wasn't aware of his substance abuse. Its hard to see anyone, but young people in particular, struggle with their demons. Even sadder to hear of someone so young losing their life. Hopefully he has found some peace now.

My sister and I were chatting about this earlier and both agreed that we didn't like the character he portrayed while in highschool, but we really took a liking to him in this past season. He'll definitely be missed.
