Glee! [merged]

[Thynight]

It redeemed itself a bit for me tonight.

[icefan]

Loved the Bohemian Rhapsody scene! Finale's are usually dramatic, but this one seemed more so when I think about some of the more silly episodes leading up to this one.

[icefan]

What is farfetched about that? A lot of the time those who are homophiobic turn out to be gay or those who pick on others have a hard time themselves.

Farfetched not in real life, but for the storyline. I was thinking if the jock becomes Kurt's boyfriend, then who else is going to throw slushies at them?

[hurriwelli]

I agree with you, when he looks at Rachel he just looks like its awkward to him... maybe he should come out and be Kurt's boyfriend HAHAHAHA j/k I hope they give Kurt a bf kind of like Finn, just not Finn

I think it's more a combination of the character being the way he is and the actor being the off-screen best friend of his supposed love interest. Lea Michele is probably the first person he came out to.

[Toy-Boy]

JGroff has an amazing ass. Those slacks were hugging his ass perfectly. Fit him like a glove

[-Callum-]

It was a decent finale.

I have mixed feelings on the whole sectionals to regionals bit again though...hopefully it doesn't take a whole season. I don't particularly want to watch them mope and fail for 22 episodes all over again.

This is my feeling too - it was a good season finale - so they lost at regionals - they have another year - let's hope the next season gets over the sectionals part quickly and focuses on them working towards regionals.

[Ohiospeedo]

Good finale, but I thought the sectionals episode was better music than the regionals. I was hoping that Vocal Adrenaline was perform more songs but all we got was bohemian rhapsody.

[tommy_2_0_0_0]

I though Bohemian Rhapsody was alright, but it was pretty much Jessie singing and everyone else just dancing. I loved the Journey number though!

[knobby]

I have a feeling that when Kurt does get a boyfriend Finn might be jealous. Not because he wants him, but because he won't get the attention from Kurt.

This would make for a great story line!!!

[matt1980111]

^I agree. I think that would be an awesome storyline. I think it could create some hilarious situations.

[aijalon18]

I think it's more a combination of the character being the way he is and the actor being the off-screen best friend of his supposed love interest. Lea Michele is probably the first person he came out to.

Still I think that speaks to his lack of acting skills. Kristen Bell and Zach Quinto are good friends but they were very believable as a couple in Heroes.

I though Bohemian Rhapsody was alright, but it was pretty much Jessie singing and everyone else just dancing. I loved the Journey number though!

There was way too much going on in that number. It wasnt even a glee club it was like a broadway musical. But New Directions was no better. Finn should not be the male lead. His voice isnt good enough. And Rachel sings WAY too much. It makes me hate Lea Michelle. Especially because the other girls can sing. We have learned later this season that Santana can sing. I actually prefer her voice to Rachel's. And everyone knows Mercedes can sing but they always have her belting at the most random times.

OK I Know it does sound rally bad but seriously Jessie comes across as Gay he doesn't come across straight. Let me just say there are Gay actors who act well and you believe whatever character they are playing may it be man, woman, ailean lol, it may be that this guy cannot act because to me when he is with Rachel he doesn't come across as a tennage boy who despite what he has done is in love with Rachel. Its hard for me to put into words and I really don't want to offend maybe its down to bad acting.

It doesnt sound bad. The gay media is kinda bullying everyone into thinking they are being homophobic just for having this opinion. Granted the other media outlets who discussed this issue have been so tactless. But Jesse DOES come across as gay. I had no clue who Jonathan Groff was at all but I new he was gay since the first time I saw him on screen. I couldnt believe they were trying to sell the idea that he was into Rachel. It is not impossible for a gay actor to play straight I'm sure there are plenty of gays closeted and out playing straight every day. Neil Patrick Harris plays straight guy. It's really not that hard.

[aijalon18]

maybe he should come out and be Kurt's boyfriend HAHAHAHA j/k I hope they give Kurt a bf kind of like Finn, just not Finn

I hope they dont give him a bf like Finn. I hope they give him someone like him or nerdy. I hate when gay guys especially feminine gay guys are only obsessed with straight or straight acting guys.

The Glee Cast Singing "Don't Stop Believin'"

[YeahWhatever]

Having watched the rerun that aired tonight (the "Push It" episode), I realized how different the first half of the season was from the second half.

The newer episodes seem to be really preachy and rely heavily on cheesy moments and cliches. It's like every episode of the second half is a "very special episode of Glee." The writing used to be pretty good, but it's been exceptionally bad lately. I still enjoy the show, but I miss the references to premature ejaculation and gag reflex...

Yah you can definately tell there is a much different writing style from the fall episodes to the spring ones. The spring ones have a lot more over-the-top moments that make you just want to look away from the screen. Not because they are bad but rather they are just "too" camp. On the other side, the falls ones tend to be much more preachy (like you said) and not as camp.

It’s going to be hard for Gleeks to face the long, hot summer without any new Glee episodes, now that the first season has sadly come to an end. But those rabid fans are in luck: EW has some scoop on what we’ll be seeing next year. “We’re plotting the first 11 and we already know the first six of them and they’re really big fun, moving episodes,” says co-creator Ryan Murphy. “We always go back to the idea of how does our society treat and feel about funding for the arts, and the answer is not very good.” Here’s what else Murphy says to expect in Glee‘s second season:

•More Musical Tributes: “The Madonna episode was so popular, I think I’m gonna do two tribute episodes — one in the fall and one in the spring — and we’re figuring out who those artists are.”

•New Characters: Murphy already let it slip that Susan Boyle might be appearing but he and producers are also looking to add some new members to the club, including a boyfriend for Kurt. “I just want him to be an everyday dude,” says Murphy. “And I want him to be sort of struggling [with his sexuality] and Kurt helps him deal with it and in the process they fall for each other.” Also look for a potential love interest for Mercedes and a Carrie Underwood-esque, Christian country singer who will be a rival to Rachel. “When people hear we’re going to do that, they will expect that we’re making fun of her,” says Murphy. “We’re not. The show is about inclusiveness and about giving voices to a lot of people.”

•A Major Season Finale: “I know that season two ends with Nationals in New York. I don’t know if they’ll make it — we haven’t figured that out.”

^ Should have put a spoiler warning before that, bud.

[jazzhands]

Opps, sorry about that. New here. Not sure how to edit it.

[giftart]

This last episode was my fav beside the lady Gaga episode!

So many times I had tears in my eyes!

[Irish Queer]

OMG Sue has a heart after all lol.

Loved Josh Groban(Sp) and Olivia N J setting themselves up I laughed hard at them.

I agree with an earlier post let Santana and Mercedes sign plz I'm getting fed up with Lea. Also Puck sings waaaaay better than Finn let the man sing more. For the love of God stop Kurt and Artie singing next year plz.

[Irish Queer]

I want Matthew Morrison more after seeing this. Its near the end BTW

Matthew is adorable, but I just LOVE Harry!

[closet-boy15]

[ame]www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlPZjWLLcYQ[/ame]

Totally thought Matthew Morrison was hot in this and I feel that Lea Michele did an awesome job, but might have overdone it a little to much towards the beginning.

By the way, does anyone else notice how good of a job the makeup and costume department does on Glee because look at how much older Lea Michele looks

[josher]

^^She really messed up the first half of Don't Rain On My Parade, while singing in the aisle, but she finished strong.


Strangely, she sang the same song at that very venue (Radio City Music Hall) just a few days earlier at the Glee concert, and it went fine. She may have just been nervous.

[Irish Queer]

Seriously with all that talent on Broadway and around the wqorld on stage why haven't musical films made a comeback???

[josher]

^^In a sense they have come back. After about 20 years with hardly any musical films being made, there have been quite few in the last 2 or 3 years.

Hedwig And The Angry Inch, Phantom Of The Opera, Hairspray, Chicago, Nine, Dreamgirls, Sweeney Todd and Mama Mia! come immediately to mind.

But few of them have been critical and/or financial hits.

(There has been some talk about a remake of My Fair Lady, which I feel is a terrible idea.)

And of course there are the Disney animated films and their High School Musical series.

But the problem is:

1) There are almost no young(ish) composers or lyricists who write the kind of songs known as standards. Broadway has had very, very few original traditional hit musicals in the past 4 or 5 years. Even Sondheim's and Lloyd-Webber's latest shows have flopped.

The overwhelming number of musical productions on Broadway for some time now have been revivals of traditional book musicals from the 30s to the 70s.

And those original musicals which have opened are pretty lame for the most part. (Part of the problem is that it takes $ 5-10 million to open a new musical.)


2) It takes very special skills to direct, choreogpraph and film a movie musical, and there aren't many people around who have those skills any more.

And Hollywood studos are pretty much only interested in making films that appeal to teenagers and people who are in their early 20s. This is not the audience for a tradtional musical.

[matt1980111]

Leona Lewis and Matthew Morrison singing 'Over The Rainbow'.

[jazzhands]

WOW! Also lol at MM.

[Lord Booticus]

Well apparently I find people twirling Sai's a turn on. Who'd of thought it?

Hmmm, I wodner if this episode is on BBC iplayer ... Yes it is!

[infectedkisses]

any one see the cast on chatty man tonight thought the interview was rather small

[neoachilles]

HUZZAH!!! Who's ready for the glorious return tonight?! Just two more hours!

[Thynight]

^With any luck I will remember to watch.

[tommy_2_0_0_0]

Things to love about the premier:
1. Harry Shum's abs.
2. The new blonde kid's arms.
3. The new coach of Vocal Ad.

[pmgunnerxx]

I love how the opening of the show was basically one big FU to all the Glee critics from last year. Good episode IMO

[ILoveYouandFB]

Puck was right, Sam does have a Big Mouth. I'm anxious to see how Kurt and Sam end up together. Kurt is like so shallow, and Sam seems really cool.

[neoachilles]

I am on pins and needles waiting for next weeks episode. It seems like it's going to focus more on Brittany, who I love (who doesn't?). As for tonight, it could have been better, I guess, but, hell, it's not like I'm going anywhere. Harry Shum looked awesome shirtless. I always figured he was hot, but damn. And that Sam guy is the one who's supposed to become Kurt's bf, right?

[hotb0d]

I love Charice....but she's on Vocal Adrenaline now? huh?

[bostonboy20]

oy....another season of GLEE...another season of me watching every week and thinking...this show sucks....and then downloading all the music and singing along...lol

Glad the Britney episode will focus on Brittany...she's really the only good part of the show...lol

[Thynight]

It was good tonight.


However I didn’t like the new people much at all. The guy might get better though. The girl seems to be a real life Rachel Barry. She tries too hard. At least with Lea she is acting.

[StlKj]

1. True
2. TRUE!
3. True.

Love Brittany.
"People thought I was on summer vacation but actually I spent it roaming the sewers."

ROFLMAO! Thanks for posting that; I missed what she said. Holy shit that character is great.

Tonight's episode was great. Loved it.

[braex27]

^ Agreed - it's come back to form. And I am soooo glad Cheyenne Jackson has join the cast! Can't wait for him to sing!!

[Ohiospeedo]

Sam probably is not gay in Glee and will not be Kurt's boyfriend...most likely.

http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2010/09/...chair-casting/

I love the show last night. I just hate it though when they allow Artie to rap, it just looks so awkward.

[jazzhands]

Actually my least favourite episode of the show. Still looking forward to next few though. I need more Cheyenne!

Sam "Evans" is necessarily going to be pair up with Kurt, at least not in the beginning of this season. There are some rumors that he may be involved with someone else.

[BigDestiny]

Chord Overstreet has a lot of nice body parts. That last scene in the locker room? I kid you not, I was distracted by his KNEE. I'm going to need to see him in a burka before I can tell you if he's a good actor or not.

Cheyenne Jackson is already amazing. He totally sold the Hello Kitty backpack.

Agreed. I'm a total sucker for blonde hair and hard bodies.

[LiquidSky]

Agreed. I'm a total sucker for blonde hair and hard bodies.

I usually don't go for blonde guys but he is very cute.

[MrBubulino]

I didn't like how they exaggerated Rachel's character.
Ok, she's usually self-centered and annoying... but they took it too far. Seemed a little bit too much even for her.

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Quinn as a cheeleader!!!
And the message about Santana's boobjob is great!

That Charice girl, she can sing! I had never heard her before. She reminded me of Christina Aguilera back in the 90s!
