We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

They reran the pilot last night, and running the rest of the series on Thursday nights for the rest of the summer.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

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.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Last night they ran Epidode 2, not the pilot. I had to buy it on iTunes to see the Pilot.

Which reminds me of the two characters that were in the early episodes but are largely absent from the later ones, and whom I find particularly annoying: Shue's soon-to-be-ex, Terri and the Coach. Boy, I don't miss them one bit!

I got caught up and I really liked the Tiger Beatdown piece about "Glee" that was linked above. I also loved the comments.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Wow, did anyone just catch Mathew Morrison and Lea Michelle on the Tony's? No auto tune there :)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

"Boondocks" killed me this week. Too many priceless moments to list.

The first episode of the new IT Crowd has been made available early on 4OD over here, but that might mean it's available for ahemming early too.

Also, it's very, very funny. Quality Moss.
