I know that they need to develop some of the story lines, but focusing on just one or two story lines in a single episode...slows...everything...way...down... I'm not used to seeing that on Glee. Maybe doing it once or twice to shake up the devices that they use to tell the stories, but not consecutively.

I get that the show is trying to reflect the way things pan out in real life - like Kurt and his dad navigating Kurt's coming out, or Rachel's coming to terms with growing up without a mom - in real life, this stuff can't be resolved in a day or two. That is one thing I really enjoy about Glee - they managed to do it well with quick-paced action and dialogue, interspersed with moments of quiet and reflection. Why are they changing it now?
I completely agree. These back 9 have been focusing on one or two story lines. I think thats what made the first 12 so good, is that it jumped around. One episode my friend goes "Where's Finn?" cause he wasn't in any of it and had about one line. I know guest stars can only stay on so long so tahts why they had to push the Idina and Lea story line but still.

Hopefully it will change now that they know they're on for at least two more seasons.
