Glee season 2

[AOIIalum]

So I'll be in the minority and say I HATED this episode. Hated with a fiery passion and then some. The only slightly redeeming bits were the mini-Gleeks, the Schue/Chang duet and the previews for next week. Then again, I deeply detest Paltrow so I dreaded this one as soon as I knew she was guesting. Sadly, it was even worse than I expected.

To talk about the whole Kurt/football player thing... I think that maybe the football player will actually try to hurt Kurt, but that Blaine or that blonde kid who is dating Quinn will be there to save him!

I'm glad someone else didn't like the episode as well! At the end I was just meh. It feels to me like Glee is becoming the Kurt Hummel show. I like Kurt, but it seems like he is the only one with an actual storyline this season.

I agree! What happened to the whole Artie-Tina-Mike love triangle? What about Rachel-Finn and Quinn-Sam?

I looooved this episode! Probably my favorite of the season. I loved Gwyneth Paltrow.

There'd be no way in hell anyone could ban tater tots from any school in Idaho. We had the potato commissioner at the coin toss for our last football game and I live in the wheat growing section.

I felt bad for Mercedes because no one likes it when their friend is in a new relationship (though Kurt says it isn't one) and all they do is talk about the other person or invite them along like a third wheel, if they don't flake on you. The story line of her just wanting a boyfriend or date kind of trivialized people who just want friends and a social life, and I felt reinforced the whole coupling and partnering of society and that if only we could find someone we'd be happy.

I lost it so hard when the conversation at Breadsticks was Mercedes hearing "gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, GAY" and a pink purse fell out of Kurt's mouth. it reminds me of a dear friend everyone assumes is my boyfriend until, as he describes it, he opens his mouth and six yards of taffeta fall out.

To me it's refreshing to have something, anything, other than Rachel and...whomever. Rachel has almost worn herself out of the show for me. They need to bring her away from the edge for me to embrace her again. And I'm tired of Finn, because he can't sing. And yet they keep giving him the male lead in songs, and it so doesn't work.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was rubbed the wrong way by that scene. I thought Kurt's "You replace love with food, go find a man so you can love yourself" thing was really condescending and I was surprised when it became an "aww BFF" moment.

Bahahahahaha - I laughed out loud.

Nooooo Kurt! Come back!!!



(Sue's track suit wedding dress was fierce.)

I wish I could say I liked it, but I had more criticism than praise.

I think the Kurt bullying plot line is timely, but its starting to be the main focus of the show, which isn't really holding my attention. Did anyone else think it was odd that he was star of the wedding? I understand that the kids are the main characters and not the parents, but they're the bride and groom, why are we talking about how awesome Kurt is at their wedding? It rubbed me the wrong way. In any case, I think he'll be back at McKinley in three episodes, so don't fret.

This episode was also a little short on music, so I was "meh" about that.

Carol Burnett, however, stole my heart in every scene.

[SMTTT]

I knew it, I knew Sue Sylvester would marry herself..I mean who else would tolerate her?

While the Kurt bully plot is the main focus right now, I think they are doing it because of what is going on in the real world. Too often we are hearing about a young adult take their life because of bullying, now it is becoming more prevalent with homophobia. If this plot line can help one person stand up to the bullying then I say more power to Glee.

Same here. Maybe my least favorite episode to date -- the wedding grated on all my nerves, as did Finn's toast. Hey, best man, toast the bride and groom, not someone else.

This episode was also a little short on music, so I was "meh" about that.

The first song didn't come until almost the halfway point.

Carol Burnett, however, stole my heart in every scene.

Yep, as she always does with me. As fas as I was concerned, she was the only redeeming part of the show last night.

[IrishLake]

I <3 Carol Burnett!!!!

[ASUADPi]

I love Sue marrying herself and being her own minister. Classic Sue!!!!!!!
