I thought "Man's World" was hilarious. Wasn't it supposed to be funny?

Mixed feelings here. Quinn sang the hell out of it. The choreography was better as a statement than as choreography.

I think I'd have liked "Good Vibrations" better if they'd have tried to bring something new to the song. I mean, more than "Pucky Puck." Maybe playing a little more with the boasting in the lyrics.

And I suspect I'm in the minority on "Tear the Roof Off the Sucker." The choreography was brilliant. The vocals -- didn't really have that much soul/funk. Technically very proficient, but not exactly funky. Kind of like the Carpenters' version of "Please Mr. Postman," except that it's easier to get away with pop-ifying a song called "Please Mr. Postman" than one called "Tear the Roof Off the Sucker (We Want the Funk)."

And it still doesn't explain how Idina['s character] could let her kids beat up on her daughter that way!

Because WINNING IS EVERYTHING!!!! And she doesn't really want a daughter, she wants a BABY!

The egging came after she had her conference with Figgins (where she was very reasonable given the expense of the vandalism - I'd have pushed to boot the knife-wielding kids into juvie!), so maybe she just knew about the toilet-papering prank.

ahem ... since this is a show in which high school singing groups manage to come up with at least one cast-wide professional-level costuming, plus the singing, arrangements, and choreography, I myself don't expect much in the area of realism.

Mark Salling and Matthew Morrison sing "Over the Rainbow,"

Beautiful. I hadn't realized how much I miss the mohawk.

Watching the "Faithfully" preview for the season finale got me to thinking. They could totally replace Finn with Arnel Pineda. He can sing any genre and could easily pass for a high school kid. He would, however, bring down the height differential significantly.

Word.

Every week I want to ask, how do they afford all those matchy-matchy clothes, much less all-out costumes?

Realism. NSM.

Realism, fine, too much to expect. Some kind of internal relationship coherency would be nice. But then, we didn't get it from BSG...

Yeah, Finn and Kurt sharing a bedroom didn't bother me at all, even though it's probably negative on the realism scale. But the Rachel/Jesse/Shelby thing has bugged me, I guess for smonster's reasons.

Realism, okay. But can I get some continuity?
