Glee Season 2 - Page 10

But for the sake of being considerate, I will apologize.

 

There is a chemistry between Finn and Rachel since the first season, being based on their singing together. I really don't understand why it's so hard to understand. Explain the attraction between Quinn and Finn then?

 

Also, I didn't say you said, "ZOMG WHAT THE FUCK." I insinuated the attitude of your opinion. ;)



You simply have to watch their duets of Don't Go Breaking My Heart, The one they did during the Madonna episode, and No Air to see how good they are together. And talent is sexy and Rachel is very talented and most herself when performing. When singing with Finn, that gives off sparks.

 

Quinn and Sam had chemistry, but Santana was right in calling them Ken And Barbie  They looked good singing together, but it was very sweet and chaste and not sexy at all. You get the feeling that Rachel and Finn want to rip each other's clothes off after duets.  The few times Quinn and Puck sang together(Papa Don't Preach comes to mind) generated heat.

I wish the writing lived up to Jane Lynch more often. Really enjoyed this ep. Between this, Rumours, and Prom Queen, Glee's been inching back to what I loved in the first 13 of season one.

Really weird seeing clips in the next week preview that were only shot six days ago.

Probably my favorite episode this season so far... but I'm biased. I had a mentally retarded uncle growing up who passed away in a similar manner.  The funeral here was a sucker punch to me.  Mad props for the Wonka song as well, I'm not ashamed to admit I misted up during it.

 

 

As to the attraction debate (if that's what to call it)... I'd point to Puck and the fat chick (who's name escapes me at the moment)  seems like a bigger WTF? than Finn digging on Rachel. But hey, there wouldn't be BBW sections on porn websites if there weren't a good amount of dudes who are into bigger gals.. so bottom line: People are attracted to whatever they are attracted to, there's not always a rhyme or reason to it.  Not all of us fall into line with the media's so-called "ideal" woman who's usually rail thin (to the point of anorexia often) with unnaturally big tits and blonde hair.   

 

But that's getting a bit too off topic.  To  put it simply, I think the who-is-attracted-to-who complaint is a silly one.  This show has its' flaws, It's not difficult to produce some real ones rather than bitching about THIS.

I wish Jane Lynch had been allowed to perform her own monologue instead of stepping aside and letting Morrison read it. I sort of get it from a character standpoint-- Sue's too overwhelmed to continue-- but it felt like the showrunners were worried that having her speak those words would have humanized her more than they really wanted.

 

Meanwhile, Emma voluntarily kissing Schu was kind of a big deal for her character and the show just sort of skated past that.

 

But yeah, Mercedes totally won. Liked the callback to Brittany's talk show too.

 

Looking ahead: Does Schu have any prospects in New York or is he just hoping to land a show once he gets there?

I was happy about that. GLEE tends to signpost character development so strongly that a a significant moment quietly playing out comes as a breath of fresh air.

Oh, I'm sorry, I see you meant in the context of the show... Fuck that. You guys are seriously stupid. We need something to complain about so I'll complain about the attraction between Finn and Rachel. Hmm, Jesse is attracted to her? What the FUCK? Why? OMG!?!? Oh wait, this is a show about high school students... I forgot that suspension of disbelief stops at high school and everything has to be 100% fact and of an elitist adult mindset. Cool...

 

 

 

 

 

I've got three kids in the approximate age range of the glee characters.  I don't have a problem with the moronic teen thing.  Honestly.  But even high schoolers know stuff at this point.  Rachel is a wreck of a human being.  Great set of pipes, though.  But other than perhaps for Jesse, that's not anywhere near enough.  Rach and Finn have enough of a history that he knows she's amazingly high-maintenance.  Talented is sexy and all, but there's gotta be some putting out.  And the ability to converse about something other than her future diva-dom.  And some basic human decency.  But mostly the putting out.

 

Mercedes pissed me the fuck off because of her response when Jesse brought up the whole "rehearsing" thing.  "I feel my shit.  I live in the moment.  I don't need to rehearse" was what she came back with, right?  Except that even in high school the music nerds know that the equation is "practice equals success".  I was in the show choir in high school.  We knew that already. 

 

Kurt..."The group has dealt with the gay boy singing women songs.  It's old news."  Except, no....it's Nationals.  I like Kurt, but Jesse had a point:  It's not like there's not a few decent broadway tunes for guys.  It's Nationals....let's not throw the whole "gay thing" into the contest.  The group may be all enlightened and stuff but there's no guarantee the judges will be.

 

Jesse.  "I took a class in reality show judging at college.  My comments will be scathing and not helpful in the least."  Okay, that was a little funny.   

 

I don't watch the show by choice.  My wife loves the shit out of it.  So do both of my older daughters.  I can't get away from it.  I consistently enjoy the music...but man, the rest of it can get rough to wade through.

The Quinn Finn attraction is pretty obvious...pretty popular kids are drawn to pretty popular kids in HS.  I always liked that Finn dug on Rachel even though she wasn't conventionally pretty and certainly not popular. Though they do both have that making weird faces while they sing thing going for them.  I haven't seen yesterday's ep yet so I can't complain or praise anything, but am psyched to see the Sing Off now!

Glee is fantastic comedy/musical show. So far i have enjoyed each and every episode of this show. Today glee season 2 finale is going to air. I am much excited for this upcoming episode. I think all fans will excited to watch it online equally. I'm sure this episode will amazing.

As I've said all along, the show works best when the Glee club comes to together and sings as a choir. The funeral service was wonderful. The rest of the episode was meh, save for Merecedes' amazing solo. However, a huge red flag immediately went up shortly after that when Jesse St. James repeatedly called Mercedes lazy. Of all the characters, the writers sure rely on racial stereotypes the most with her. It's beyond absurd now.

 

Also, LOL @ Rachel's John Mayer face comment.

post #462 of 470

Wow, I just finally got around to watching the last episode.  That funeral scene was incredible.  The rest of the show could have been Tina picking her nose and I still wouldn't be able to complain about it.  I don't see how anyone who has ever had someone close to them die could stay dry eyed during that.  Yeah, I'm gushing.  And HELL yes, Mercedes won and the lazy thing pissed me off.  I'm so ready for tonight now!

a bit surprised they are making next year senior year.  Should have been an extended episode.

post #464 of 470

The finale was the worst episode of GLEE in a long time. Just terrible.

And with that I bid adieu to Glee. Wish I could say it was fun.

post #466 of 470

I wasn't totally blown away by the finale as I wanted to be, but it had it's moments.  Brit's cup song and the look on Puck and Artie's faces was a really fun bit.  I thought it could have been an extended episode too, but was glad they didn't make it past the first round.  There's still growth to be had by New Directions.

You mean Nude Erections, right? Cause that's what I hear every time they say their group name. :P

 

post #468 of 470

Just thinking of Nude Erections gives me oral intensity.

post #469 of 470

Didn't like any of the original songs.  And the whole episode just felt weird.  I guess it was a side effect of filming in New York, but something about the editing or direction was just...off.

HAHAHA!  Well NOW I do.  Damn how I missed that is beyond me. 

 

Edited to remind you all what I should have said... "there's still growth to be had by nude erections."  I'm a perv!!!  And a confused one.  Once it's nude and erect...shouldn't it be done growing?
