You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I gotta recommmend Silent Library on MTV. It's based on a Japanese game show where you have to keep from laughing while completing comedy stunts. One guy just got run back and forth through a "car wash" made of gyro meat. Before that a guy had to put on giant suspenders that another guy snapped... OK maybe only recommended for fans of shows like Jackass.

I could not believe what Glee got away with last night. Emma's gag reflex comment made my jaw drop. And I can't recall ever having seen the heartbreak of premature ejaculation depicted on network TV before.

Didn't like the musical performances that much though. They were WAY overproduced, to the point that it didn't sound like it was the kids who were singing.

St. Elsewhere did it over twenty years ago.

That was the only thing I didn't like.

Friends made a joke about it but it was only a juice box.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I remain charmed by the background music they play behind the non-musical scenes--those little numbers are really clever but not distracting.

I haven't been able to get the show's version of "Gold Digger" out of my head.

I do love Jayma Mays. I have sat through some really crappy movies because of her.

I was thinking the same thing. Poor lamb.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

At least she got a plot, and a song lead, even if it was a fantasy one. Show is still on probation with me.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

She's a terrible actress, though. I don't want to be mean, but I don't think that her voice is good enough to make up for it. That scene where Kurt came out to her was painful.
