Glee...a guilty pleasure

[Julien]

Yes, I watch Glee. Am I a "gleek" I don't know. What I do know is that I love Sue Sylvester played by Jane Lynch. Last week Sue stepped into Madonna's shoes for a shot by shot rendition of "Vogue". It was great. Anyone else watch this show? Who is your favorite character or what is your favorite scene?

[Darth Denkay]

I watch it. I started out because I'd been told by so many people that I would love the music - and I definitely do! The talent of those kids is amazing! At first I didn't care much about the storyline but it's grown on me. Can't really say who my favorite character is - more of an ensemble cast for me. Can't think of a favorite scene, but have enjoyed so many of the musical numbers. But yeah, I tune in each week. :mohawk: One a side note, it's Puck's fault that I now sport a faux hawk :buzz cut:

Since the first episode, hooked.

GLEE!!!!

I didn't want anyone to be confused as to how I felt
about the show.

[Gemme]

Know those new Windows commercials where people think MS created it just for them and/or based on an idea they had (forgetting that they didn't tell anyone about said idea)?

Well, I'm one of those people and Glee is MS. I love Madonna and had hoped they would do something using her material, but to give me a "Power of Madonna" episode (in addition to the fabulous Vogue rendition)???

Glee loves me. :stillheart:

[Diva]

Oh and yes! I thought the Sue Sylvester/Vogue thing was STELLAR! And au so magnifique!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the show.....did I mention that? :dance1:

[Julien]

If you can check out the upcoming TV Guide. It has the cast of Glee on the cover. The women are dressed in costumes that highlight Madonna's career. Got to love Jane Lynch's look. If I could figure out how to post the picture I would. :beatcomputer:

[DapperButch]

I admit it. I watch the show. I am hooked.

The first episode I watched pulled me right in...it was the one where the gay guy (yeah, I watch the show every week, but, as usual, know no one's name), came out of the closet. I thought it was freakin' hilarious.

[Sybelle]

Missed the first few episodes. And then over on facebook, comments from the kids I have done shows with tweaked my interest. Hooked! And like Gemme, I think that they made it for me. LOL!

Last week's episode was peppered with "taking time to get to know yourself" after a breakup and not rushing in to anything - HELLO (also the show's theme!)?? When the director of Vocal Adrenaline says to Will that he still didn't really know who he was - just coming out of a long marriage - again I say .. Hello???

The music, the dances - I love how they have instrumentalists just "hanging around" waiting for jam sessions. And I love Jane Lynch as Sue Sylvester. But I've liked her in most anything she's done.

Having been a show choir kid in high school, I can say we didn't have it quite that bad. And we had football players and cheerleaders in our group. The only downside was that the cheerleaders insisted on picking our outfits. Which was always great for the cheerleaders, but not so great for everyone else's figures. Of course, I thought I was fat in High School, too. Looking back at pictures I realize the folly of that thought.

Show choir saved me though, kept me in school. My parents used it as their motivational tool. Not every kid is going to be a jock or cheerleader. They all deserve to shine, somehow.

And that's how Sybelle.... C's it!

[cinderella]

Monty, don't have a clue what Glee is...too busy watching TCM - not there's a program!!

Glee and Madonna what a match. What did you think about the show tonight? I especially liked Sue (Jane Lynch) going after Will's hair all the time. She has some funny lines and her delivery is right on. Did anyone notice the pamphlets in Emma's office? I know on the first show they said some really bizarre things. I wish I could remember them. I liked the songs and how they fit into the show. "Like a Virgin" was great. "Vogue" was fantastic.

Oh yeah... I really liked the part where they sang "What it feels like for a girl" and looooooooooved "Express Yourself"!! Sue cracks me up so much I'd love to see the outtakes for her shots.

Saw the pamphlets. One said something like "In love with your stepdad?"

[Julien]

I found a website (of course there is one) that has the titles of the pamphlets in Emma's office. They are:
1. RADON: The Silent Killer
2. My Mom's Bipolar and She Won't Stop Yelling
3. So, You Like Throwing Up,
4. Wow, There's a Hair Down There
5. I Can't Stop Touching Myself
6. DIVORCE: Why Your Parents Stopped Loving You :pointing:

enjoy :cracked:

[Ldyluck88]

I thought the show was great last night!! They have some great actors/singers on the show. I loved it when they did Vogue, it was pretty awesome!! I give it 2 thumbs up, hehe

[Diva]

Yeah, they showed "Vogue" at the end of last week's show.....VERY awesome!

I love this show!

[Apocalipstic]

Sue Sylvester!!!!!

VOGUE!

Loved it!

[Julien]

What did you all think about the three couple version of "Like a Virgin"? I thought the cutting to each couple singing the song was very well done. Santana has a very good voice too. What do you think about the aftermath when Rachel and Finn were talking about their "dates" and they both lied about "doing it". For Rachel she pretended like she did when she really didn't. Finn said he chickened out, but actually had sex.

I loved those scenes especially! The whole lying about doing it thing reminded me of an old Kristy McNichol movie where she was at summer camp and lied about having sex (said she didn't but did) and her friend lied about doing it, but didn't. Can't think of the name of it though. :thinking:

[Diva]

I am VERY thrilled to know that there will be an encore presentation on FRIDAY of last night's Glee episode!

I. Am. So. HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :choir:

Thanks for the heads up. I haven't looked yet, but I heard that American Idiot, er um, Idol went over and that the end of Glee was cut off. I'll delete it from the Tivo and retape on Friday.

It will be an interesting storyline. And when you factor in the "defection", it makes me not like that guy from Vocal Adrenaline even more. But that's what makes it dramatic - conflict and resolution. :movieguy:

To have a good story line and good music is great. Good for Rachel. The preggo cheerleader storyline was needing a break. And based on promos (think the woman getting waxed for Will in that preview) other stars will be shooting for guest spots on the show.

On MySpace, they have an audition invitational. One of the kids I'm in a show with locally, made it to their regional auditions. Not sure what happened with it yet. Crossing fingers.

[Gemme]

The Idol of America did run over and the end of Glee was cut off by about a minute or so, so I am looking forward to the encore episode too, since you never know what they are going to throw at you in the last minute.

You can also watch it on Hulu.com. Not sure how that works, but usually they have the episode the day after the show airs. Maybe not in this case since they are doing an encore?

If you can stream video - watch it there!! You can move the bar over to the end so that you can see "Just Like a Prayer"!

I had missed the entire rendition of "Like a Prayer" the first time and was glad to see it on the encore.

Rachel's new boyfriend Jesse is played by Jonathan Groff. Groff performed with Lea Michelle in Spring Awakening on Broadway. He is also openly gay. Here is a link to an article about gay actors playing straight.

So what did you think of tonight's GLEE? It looked like Kristin Chenoweth's night to shine. I looked her up and she's been on tv and on Broadway, most notably in the musical Wicked. It was odd not seeing Lea Michelle sing, but they brought out some characters who are usually back up. How do you like that Sue skated by with the journalist misunderstanding of the performance and called her a "hero" of sorts. Pretty funny. You got to study the reactions Jane Lynch does with her face. She's good.

I liked tonight's show well enough. Some tough issues to cover via song, eh?

Next week, Olivia Newton-John ?? The stars keep popping up to be on this show. It's gonna be great stuff - keep watching!

Her expression was priceless! I love to hate her! ;)

I watched this for the very first time tonight and I am smitten with this show! First of all, I dont like musicals, and secondly, I have the attention span of a gnat in regard to series. But now i have to go back and watch all the glees I have missed!:goodscore:

You will enjoy GLEE. Tonight was an odd format because of the return of one character played by Chenowerth. It wasn't all that much school focused. Although we have Sue, love to hate her as Diva said. Go to Hulu and see how far back you can go to watch their episodes. Have fun.:clap::giggle::rofl::thumbsup:

[Gemme]

Word is, since the Power of Madonna episode was so well-received, that now talk is one with Britney's music is in the works. Other names thrown around for future episodes include Led Zepplin and Hole. Hole? You gotta be kidding me, right? :blink:

LOL Diva! She actually is funny in most anything comedy related that I've seen her perform. Has a great sense of the comedic timing. I'm serious when I say I'd love to see their outtakes of her stuff. How could you not crack yourself up being that goofy?

Great article. I could tell right from the beginning that GLEE was just a left wing political tool to take over the world. The great thing is they do it with songs so the unsuspecting viewer will internalized the liberal message. :rofl::doh:

hey everyone,
what did you think of Tuesday's episode? How did you like the guest star of Olivia Newton-John? and the Physical routine with Sue. Can anyone tell me if Jane Lynch is doing her own singing? I know last night's performance was enhanced. I just asking the braintrust if anyone knew. I like the last song that Rachel and the guys sang. I can't remember who did the song originally.

I had never heard it, but I liked the video they put together. "Musically promiscuous"....ha! I loved that.

[Diva]

I think my favorite part was seeing the softer side of Sue, as she read to the woman on the bed....VERY sweet, VERY loving.....

It was just nice to see that. (Though I DO appreciate her evil side, too!)

:stillheart:

You mean her sister? I agree. That was surprisingly touching and I love that Sue put the girl with Down's (I think) on the Cheerios.

[Julien]

Congratulations to Jane Lynch on her marriage today.:love1:
Speaking of Sue Sylvester, my favorite scene from tonight's episode is when she is sitting in the restaurant waiting for Will. I love the fact she wears the same old red track suit, but this time she has a pearl necklace on. Too funny. It's the little things we should appreciate.

[Gemme]

I was only half watching while at work (luckily, I record it and can watch it back later today) when I saw Wil getting all weird and date-y with Sue. I thought I'd ventured into an alternate universe but thankfully I was proved wrong. Now, I really need to watch the rest of the funk episode. :blink:

[Julien]

What did you think about Santana's coming out episode on tonight's "Sexy" episode of Glee? I find it great that this show continues to push/break boundaries in terms of sexuality. It was a bittersweet situation for Santana and Britney (sp?), since Santana voices her true feelings for her friend and then let down by her. The show addresses the fear of labeling as voiced by Santana. What do you think about tonight's episode?

I also liked Kurt's father having the big discussion about feelings along with sex. Very cool.

[Chancie]

I loved the scene between Kurt and his father.

But, there were two scenes censored on my local channel.

I missed some of the scene when Kurt's new friend (boyfriend?) starts to talk to him about sex.

And I think the other scene was between Gwyneth Paltrow and Will, hubba hubba, towards the end.

[Gemme]

I haven't been watching lately and have no idea what's going on now. Would someone catch me up to date? I remember seeing the ads for them going to NYC for competition and there being some drama but that's about all I know.
