I started watching Glee….right now I’m on Season 1 Episode 20. It’s a good show, not a great show.

The musical numbers are pretty good. Sometimes.

The high school drama is…. repetitive. It’s less dramatic than say, Dawson’s Creek or One Tree Hill.

I think Dianna Agron is very nice to look at (and I enjoyed her appearance in I Am Number Four, despite being a terrible movie). But she sounds like she’s always got a cold. And also, she can’t act. It’s like watching January Jones in the X-Men.

I think Lea Michele is a great singer. But her character is SO OBNOXIOUS.

I think Matthew Morrison is like an older, less vocally strong Justin Timberlake. He’s good…but…not spectacular.

Anyways, what I really enjoy is that every once in a while, they’ll do a fantastic musical number. It’s nice just sticking around for that…

Also, every once in a while, they deal with difficult issues. I love that they have a physically disabled character in the show. The group has a lot of ethnic diversity. I love that the group is filled with all the cliques; jocks, cheerleaders, nerds, goths, geeks, and homosexuals. The group deals with all the issues that a cast of misfits like these would deal with. Racism, teen pregnancy, sexism, homosexualism…and well, just dealing with jerks most of the time. Every once in a while, they give me a show that makes me feel something, while the rest of the show is just…well, a series of events where I have no emotional attachment to. It’s more real now than it was at the beginning, but it’s still so…..high school. Most of the time.

Anyways, I should sleep…just wanted to write a bit about this show now that I’ve almost finishes Season 1. After that: Season 2 and then…who knows!

    I agree pretty much on all of this… Season 2 is just more of the same. But the Thriller/Zombie song they do is AWESOME. Still my favourite from season 2.
