Here's the thing

I like Glee, but sometimes I get the idea that their writers' room goes something like this:

"Hey, I know! We could have Sue say, 'Well, actually William, if your little Glee Club doesn't win whatever competition is coming up next, your funding will be cut'."

and then someone else says, "Great idea! And then Will can look really mad and say, 'You're not going to get away with this, Sue!' and then Sue can turn around and say something really mean and hilarious."

Then they give each other high fives and Google the latest gossip about Lea Michele so they can feel like they're a part of it all.

Your thoughts.

(Also, not that I'm fishing for gifts or anything [or maybe I am, simply by telling you this. I haven't quite figured out the Psychology of it all], but tomorrow I will be 25. I'm not into it. I never thought I would already be dreading my next year while in my 20s, but here we are.)

I find the storyline of glee to be lame. i find the singing to be fantastic and i love listening to the songs. those are my thoughts.

and also, don't dread being 25. if tomorrow weren't my xmas party I'd def get you something.

i used to watch glee, but have found that A. the writing sucks and B. it's filthy. i put up with a lot on tv... probably too much, which i am not proud of, but glee was just too much. i can't even believe that they cater to teens - it's trash.

but the music is amazing. i'll grant them that. if only the plot were up to par.

Yeah, I think that the past few episodes have been better, but the story line is the same old boring crap! Oh, and the Glee kids always think the NEXT competition the win will make them popular. Okay, well it didn't work this time, but the NEXT one will. Lame.

And the first 4 episodes of this season were SO TRASHY! I was seriously shocked. But, the last few have been good.

Those are my thoughts.

And you are so old! Jk. I've already told you how terrified that I am to get old. So, I feel you, granny.

I agree with you all. In magazine about Glee they always have these nasty pictures of the cast. They advertise Glee as joyful and fresh, but really it's just a cover up for a dirty show. Sometimes I love it because there are some hilarious lines. Also, I like the music. But why the trash? They could have a big following without the trash because the other stuff is actually really funny.

Agreed with everyone. Sometimes I feel like the writers sit there and think which social topic have we not pushed to the extreme lately.....? Religion! Let's base a whole episode on why God sucks, OR how everyone is secretly gay OR why EVERYONE should sleep with his or her significant other because they deserve it,OR cheating on your spouse is acceptable just because she's crazy. Lame sauce. I could go on, but I won't. The best part of the show are the one liners from Sue. The rest just is garbage.

25 was my favorite year ever. I'm sad that it's multiple years behind me now. [sigh] Enjoy it for me, k?
