I don't want to wish anyone else to go to hell, haha, but Journey was my very first thought too.

I don't associate it with Glee. I have never been nor do I think I will ever be a Gleek. I've been in show choirs, and that ain't it. I do think Sue's character is funny though, and what a lovely name too.

lol
Also, I'm a college student & I thought Journey?
I don't see why the song would be connected to Glee. Yes they recorded a version of it, but Glee does tons of song covers....
Doesn't make them their songs...

Sorry gang, but this makes me think of the Steelers first and foremost. Everything else is secondary.

Okay, okay, so maybe I overestimated how connected it is to Glee, and (I'm glad to say) underestimated recognition of Journey.
But as for Glee, yes, they've done lots of covers, but "Don't Stop Believin'" was pretty much the theme song for the first season, sung first as the climax of the pilot (which aired in May before the season really got started in September, but which got lots of internet play) again mid-season, and then a third time the high point of Regionals in the Season 1 finale. It was also the first single they ever released, and was used throughout Season 1 in commercials and promos.

LOL.
I admit it -- I love the show. (Or at least loved Season 1. Season 2 was more iffy.)
My name is MysticCat, and I'm a Gleek. I also love Broadway musicals: Sirius XM Channel 72 -- "On Broadway" -- keeps me very happy, and I can have a show tune for almost every occasion.
I am comfortable with who I am.

I have to admit, I don't really get this criticism. I've been in courtrooms lots and lots, and most if not all legal shows bear little resemblance to what trials, or the practice of law, are really like. They'd be beyond boring if they were to true to life. I'd bet doctors can say the same about medical shows and law enforcement types about police shows.
These are fictional shows designed to entertain and tell a story, not documentaries about real life.

Well that's probably part of it for me. I'd rather watch a documentary than reality TV any day. Plus I just think the whole story line is silly. I know a lot of my good friends like it, but I just never got into it. Give me House or Arrested Development or the Big Bang Theory and I'm a happy girl.

Love Big Bang Theory and Arrested Development. (House, not so much.) But I'd rather go to the dentist than watch a documentary. THey bore me to death.
Seriously, everybody has different tastes, and that's fine. It's just that when I hear someone say that they don't like a fictional TV show or movie because "that's not how it really is in real life," I kind of want to say "And that's different from all the other shows how?" But it's all good.
