I totally LOLed about that. Also laughed about the preview where Brittany thinks her cat has been reading her diary!

Oh, she's been doing that for a while! I like his curly hair, though!

My husband doesn't get Glee. He thinks it's weird that I am in my 30s and watching a show about high school kids.

I told him it is kind of like eating a Whatchamacallit Candy Bar- yummy and wen you finish you want more, but it doesn't really have any nutritional value- but that's what you need sometimes.

Glee is fun and campy and at the end of the hour I always want more, but it's not the news or The Great Gatsby or anything. But not everything has to be!

That's why I found it so funny when Jesse said to Rachel through the door, "Come out so we can talk about it, OR sing about it." Kind of poked fun at the genre.

How funny was, "When I pulled my hamstring, I went to a misogynist."

I am only a casual Glee fan- the husband is the one who watches every week!- however I was captivated by last night's episode. Madonna was my childhood, with Borderline being released during my 6th grade year, and most of her huge selling albums being released during junior high and high school. Interestingly, the lead (Rachel?) has a better voice than Madonna does, so it was great hearing her versions. I felt like such a dork wanting to get up off the couch and dance the whole night.

Other moments that I loved: the background Madonna's (from many of her videos) while the main characters were singing in the hallways, Sue's "Vogue" and of course the pamphlets on Emma's desk. Good stuff. Mostly though, I just loved the music.

Never has a TV show been so much fun! One of the most entertaining hours of television I have ever watched.

I couldn't agree more I LOVED the "Like a Virgin" scene last night!

As soon as she said it, I was ready to quote it on greekchat! HILARIOUS!

OK, for those of us who thought Glee has been feeling a little "different" since coming back from hiatus, I'm curious what you thought about tonight's episode. I thought tonight's show was superb, one of the best they've done. The singing was so beautiful!

It made me realize that I think there's just too much Rachel in most episodes. Not just too much Rachel, but too much neurotic Rachel. It was nice to have a break from the whole Rachel-Finn storyline.

I also like that next week it looks like Emma calls Will a "slut!" They certainly have been throwing the women at him lately...a little unbelievable if you ask me.

I had never had an interest in Glee before. Last night, I had a guest over who asked if she could watch Glee, at least a little bit of it. It was the scene where the plastic has-been woman shows up at the home of the coach and then they start singing a medley of a song I don't know and "A House is Not a Home."

I liked it.

Might not make it a religious habit, and I will still watch Lost instead, but once Lost is off, I could get into it.

LOVED that line. Kurt's expressions are priceless.

I actually loved the interaction between Mercedes and Quinn. That scene could have come across so contrived, but it seemed very organic. Kudos to the writers and actors.

I did miss the usual group numbers. I love Kristin Chenoweth, and I really enjoy hearing the Mr. Shu singing, but the club barely had any "sing" time.

Great Line!!!

Didn't Brittany have some good lines in the episode as well? I don't quite remember. I just remember her saying something funny.

Oh the sand. Adding sand to their "sue" drink.

Ever since Glee came back from hiatus, I'm just not loving it the way I used to. The storytelling isn't as good and, even though there are more musical numbers, I'm not impressed. I think the who thing with the V.A. kid is obnoxious. And the only things I am enjoying are Santana and Brit's banter and Will and Sue's insults.
