As harsh as that AV Club review is, I'd have to agree with almost all of it.
Newsflash for me--I thought Quinn was the lips, not Santana!
Mal: Does.. um.. does this seem kind of tight? Kaylee: Shows off your backside.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
did they say *Ohio*???
There's an ongoing thing where various kids say something like, "I want to get out of this place, not just stay here and end up a Lima Loser." There was at least one time that Emma (the guidance counselor) told a kid something like, "You don't want to end up a Lima Loser. You're better than that." Which made me blink a few times, since I can just imagine the parents' reaction to a kid being told that.

Oh, I thought that the lips were Quinn too.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I could tell Santana's voice.

Huh. I thought it was Quinn because of the voice.

Gripe aside, I did love "Toucha Toucha Toucha Touch Me" because it was the one number that stayed as true to the original, with Santana and Brittany eavesdropping.
Except it bugged me that the context for it was Will wanting to practice his non-existant part. I wish the impetus would have come from her side.

“Not dead yet!”
I wish the impetus would have come from her side.
Good point. That would definitely have added an interesting edge to the scene.

Not to mention he was "practicing" a song in which he barely has a line.

Isn't that the very definition of a flimsy excuse?

The one thing I did like this episode was that is showcased how much Emma is changing and growing as a result of dating Carl which I doubt would have happened if she had continued to date Will.
Isn't that the very definition of a flimsy excuse?
Yeah and contributes to my ever increasing annoyance at how Will is being written, because if we are supposed to think he's a douche, then they are doing a fantastic job of it, but I don't know if that is really their intention, which is bad. He's so skeevy now, I sorta want to punch him in the face.
Overall, the daughter and I were both sorta meh on the whole episode. She gave it a 5 and I gave it a 4 for some of the song renditions, the look on Barry Bostwick's face when he was considering explaining the toast to Sue and Sue's pumpkin. (Full disclosure, I've seen RHPS over 100 times and seen the stage play in London so I set the bar low to begin with but I was sorta hoping they’d hit at least a 5). I wished we could have seen Kurt do more as Riff Raff because he was spot on. I think that Mercedes over-sang Sweet Transvestite too.
