It was.

I like Gwyneth Paltrow - Scrappy - Shakespeare in Love and Sliding Doors are two of my favorites too! I thought that she did a good job and agree that Becky as Sue's minion is gold.

I enjoyed "Make Them Laugh"; disliked the Rachel/Gwyneth number and wasn't that into the big finale Singing in the Rain thing.

Sliding Doors is in my top three favorite movies bucket. I like GP in Emma as well.

I am increasingly dismayed with Glee, but have to confess that I have watched "Forget You" entirely too many times. I went out and got the Cee Lo original as well. That's about the bounciest, bitter diatribe I've ever heard.

I had to pull up the original "Make Them Laugh" to watch right after the episode. Ahhhh, much better. Think I'm going to need to do a full Singing in the Rain rewatch today.

Yeah, "Make 'Em Laugh" was just copying the singing and dancing of the original almost exactly, but the original was better. Didn't add anything, just subtracted. I'd never realized how much of what makes the original great is Donald O'Connor's facial expressions, but it really is, and neither of those guys could get even close.

I haven't watched The Office in ages but Kelly sums up how I feel about Glee fairly succinctly: [link]

I liked the Journey joke, and Becky, and was enjoying Will and Mike Chang's "Make 'Em Laugh" number until I remembered I'd seen Joseph Gordon Levitt do it better only a couple of years ago. But about 90% of the episode left me cold. Usually I at least enjoy the music, but there was only one song I liked tonight.

Yeah, I didn't like the song selection at all. I thought the idea of having a "substitute" plotline was great, but they tried to do too much with it. And none of the subplots were interesting (although Becky was great).

I haven't been watching Glee regularly, I think I've decided I like watching the numbers more than watching the show.

I liked Gwyneth, she wasn't horrible. Becky was great and the Journey jokes.

I didn't like Make 'Em Laugh, I think I would have if they hadn't tried to redo the original -- like if it was set in the school and they still did some of the gags in context of the school.

I liked the Cee Lo Number and the Singin in the Rain Mash up, I didn't like the song from Chicago - it was more dance than song and just eh.

I HATED the whole "bipolar rant" thing at the end but that's my pet peeve.

Is that HRG on The Office?

YES. I screamed. Angela doesn't deserve him, tho.
