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.

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.

Bwah, Aims! Also, I think the other team was supposed to be shocked and unable to move, you know, until the number was over.

Sure, but the West Side Story performance she gave was tentative. And she was all wrought with giving it up for the teamness and imposter syndrome immediately afterwards. Harumph.

ALSO! WTF was lead chick doing complaining about getting the alto line? Anita's part is the best song in that show! Freaking sopranos.

Hee. "A BOY LIKE THAT! COULD KILL YOUR BROTHER!"

It's not like Rachel is really a soprano anyway. I mean, she's got the range, but she's more the belty type. I'm sure Tina's got the range too.

"A BOY LIKE THAT! WANTS ONE THING ONLY! AND WHEN HE'S THROUGH! HE'LL LEAVE YOU LONELY!"

And right? Rachel's totally a belter.

Took a day or two to get to The Office. The A-story felt like a set-up for the season's mayhem. This will not end well. "We're taking over Buffalo's workload" is a great explanation for keeping the two extra salespeople, though it would have been nice to add a transfer from Buffalo to the cast. Or maybe not -- the cast is pretty big already.

And I thought Toby had more sense than that.
