A good review of Glee's ep this week by Mo Ryan of the Chicago Trib, complete with a few clips and link to one of the songs at the end. Loved this bit:

I must acknowledge the show's addictive elements. Dolton native Jane Lynch is giving one of the best performances on television as cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester, a driven woman who would be better suited to a gig as the dictator of [a] small, fearful country. I must also note Iqbal Theba, who plays Principal Figgins with a perfectly calibrated mixture of world-weary ennui and canny opportunism.

Um, a little preview song for Glee (I believe this will be on tonight's ep)-- Proud Mary," sung by Tina and (I think) one of the footballer backup guys. This a freakin' amazing version!! It might be my favorite song yet this season. Can't wait to see it performed on screen!

Good lord, that video was precious. What a cutiehead he is.

Dip and nunchaku! Oh, Puck.

I'm not sure if Puck or Kurt is my favorite right now.

I ... I did not like this episode much. I will go into more datail later, after the west coast airing.

I didn't think it was possible for Puck to be a woobie, but he totally is! And I am really disliking Quinn a lot.

Loved the scenes with Kurt and his dad. Of course, I'm still wondering how Kurt is affording Alexander McQueen. I wonder if he got his SUV back. (my supposition is that whatever killed his mom resulted in a big lawsuit/settlement)

It is so very hard to choose. I love 'em all, those crazy kids.

What Vortex said. And I am still sceptical about this humanization of Sue Sylvester.

Oh but damn if Jane Lynch didn't sell it. She made me cry.

Aims did you not like it because most of the female glee clubbers were by and large unlikable in this episode?
