I am annoyed at Glee's complete suspension of logic. Disbelief, sure, but there has to be some sense involved. It is stupid to build up the situation between Kurt and his dad only to have the complete anticlimactic "I've always known and I love you for who you are" speech. If that was true, he wouldn't have taken the car away when he found the tiara collection. And I don't mean to be classist, but why did they go to the trouble of making Kurt's dad look like a blue collar galoot, but there's clearly money for Escalades and Marc Jacobs sweaters? And then they threw in the bit about Kurt's mom being dead, where did that come from?
Just ugh.
Had to change my tagline after seeing last night's ep. I really thought that Stephen Toblobowsky would be a one-time guest star in the pilot--nice to see he's got a regular spot in the cast now!
It was all worth it for the entire football team dancing to the most inappropriate song possible. Um, is cheerleader girlfriend really preggers? I totally thought that was a ploy until mohawk dude came into the picture.
Yeah, but preggers from mohawk dude, right?
I'm thinking I need to regard the whole show as wildly implausible but I'm going to roll with it. Dancing football players! Also, making the dad think, huh, guess he was practicing for football. Hee.
But yeah, not too sure why they went some of the directions they did with characterizations. Also! The blushing insecure stammering Asian girl does not seem consistent with her audition. I'm just saying, that was not a performance that lacked confidence.
Still having problems with the diversity issues; I hope they go where I want them too, but it's requiring a lot of patience and faith for a show I don't know.

I think that the anvil that we're trying not to be hit by is that when she sings, she has confidence, but not in "real life"
I continue to love The Big Bang Theory.
Sheldon's mother: as weird and forthright a woman as ever.
"You know, at our church, we have a woman who's an amazing healer. Mostly she does crutch and wheelchair people, but I bet she'd be willing to take a shot at whatever third world demon is running around inside of you."

that's Laurie Metcalf! Has she been on the show before? I love her.
Has she been on the show before?
Just once before, I think. She's fab.
Oh, I forgot the other logical fallacy of Glee that annoyed me: The offense can't hold the line long enough to keep the quarterback from being sacked, but they can hold it long enough for Kirk to do his whole dance?
They were loosened up! They were pumped that they could *actually* win a game! It was a Friday Night Lights MIRACLE!!!
They should film it and show it every year at Homecoming.
