    I actually preferred it when the Glee club was this low budget production. Do you guys remember their first song/dance number? Shuffling around in the classroom while one person pushed Artie around. I thought that stuff was great. So were the storylines about how the Glee club was a lot poorer compared to other schools, couldn't pay for a special bus to accommodate wheel chairs, didn't have the money to compete on the same level costume/production wise as Vocal Adrenaline, etc.

    And now there are these crazy ass elaborate numbers where they're not even trying to ground it in reality. Like I said, it's like a cartoon show.

    Carol Burnett has been the best guest star this season. She was hilarious, and her song with Sue was very good. I hope she gets an emmy nomination for this appearance.

    Now that the plot is finally moving forward I hope the show picks up. Also any time Fynn has a solo I cringe. Or Schuester for that matter (he's a decent singer but he looks so sleezy doing it).

    I loved her as a Nazi hunter, it was so out there XD I also loved their duet, it was really cute.
    I'll have to disagree on moving the story forward though. The one thing that shows that they are moving forward was the mention of a setlist for Sectionals,but otherwise we're still in the bully arc for Kurt.

    You'll have to forgive me if it sounds biased or whatever, but there's just too much of Kurt this season just like it was too much of Rachel last season. Even during the wedding sequence when it was supposed to be about the people getting married,it was all about Kurt; their vows to each other both mentioned him and during Finn's best man toast which was supposedly dedicated to his mother really ended being about Kurt.
    Too much exposure :/
    People think he's the best character and deserves all of this praise because he's the only one we've really focused on when there are about 5 or 6 other characters that we've barely scratched the surface with.

    Murphy is just stupid when it comes to other characters. there has been loads of Kurt development but everyone else is kinda left behind. The consistency is just x.x He could actually be furthering the plot and development of MULTIPLE characters rather than all this guest star nonsense.

    Lamer than Paltrow's episode? That was pretty high on the lame scale.

    I thought Paltrow's was fine.

    People are finally starting to take notice that Kurt has a problem, they have his back, Sue and Schuster are on the lookout, his father and stepmother are aware of the issue, and suddenly now he has to transfer schools. "I have a bunch of people supporting me now? Oh well, I'mma take my parents' honeymoonn savings and transfer anyway." Lame.

    And, okay, throwing together a wedding in less than a week? With choreography? Come on. Even for TVland that's ridiculous. Keep it simple and save for a honeymoon? With that many guests, that is at least a $20,000 wedding. Easily. Could be double that, depending. And the bridal gown was hideous and bulky. And as previously mentioned, (and in addition to being way over-the-top cheesy even for Glee) it was all about Kurt. And that snippy comment by the preacher at the start of the ceremony pissed me off. Why didn't he just say "Well, we usually pray in church, but this homo hates God so instead I'm just going to shut up and let the bride and groom talk about how much they love their condemned son anyway"?

    The Sue marrying herself thing wasn't funny weird, it was just way over the top stupid and added nothing to the story. All of the scenes with Carol Burnett could have happened without the ridiculousness of Sue marrying herself.

    The plot holes in this show just piss me off.

    And they didn't even have a song for the first 17 minutes! WTF!

    Totally relevant.

    That said, I've not seen the show, but I've heard a couple songs preformed by the Glee cast.

    THe last one being Only the Good Die Young, and oh my god was it painful to hear. I can't vouch for the singers actual ability, but the entire song reeks of this terrible studio altered sound. The stories and characters could be amazing, but if even half the songs come out sounding like that, no way would I sit through it.

    I actually liked this past episode since it utilized alot of the other members of the Glee club, namely finally giving Santana a solo, and also finally redeeming Rachel in my eyes,somehow.
    Her little talk with Kurt was really cute and touching, but she still kept her self-absorbedness, which I like since it's still part of her character (just in moderation Ryan Murphy,plz).
    THIS episode moved the plot forward,finally.

    Hey, it started off pretty good! Until it choked on its own hype and started spewing up bile.
