I'm sure Cory Monteith is a perfectly lovely fellow, but since he can't sing and can't dance,
and the acting is a little suspect as well.
This must be what going mad feels like.

OMG, the trashing of Finn is making me laff.

But not as pretty. Okay, Finn wasn't pretty, I'm just a sucker for rugged military/cop types.

They're both Finns! I just realized that, d'oh!
I finally saw the pilot! Now the rerun from last night makes sense...well, as much sense as any episode does!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We want to start watching Glee but I can't find the pilot or any but a handful of eps online. Are they somewhere to be found?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Isn't FOX rerunning most of them this summer?

I think Corey actually may be the second best actor on the show (after Jane Lynch, of course). He sells a lot of ridiculous scenes and adds little nuances to his character that really make me feel Finn as more real and present than most of the other characters, including the ones played by Broadway darlings.
Of course, I find his singing perfectly acceptable for what it's supposed to be: beginning efforts by a talented novice without much vocal training. I just don't like it when they assign him male lead on songs way out of his range and then use the auto tune so much it sounds like Lea Michelle is singing a duet with a Cylon from 70s era Battlestar Galactica.
