Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

No less realistic than thinking that even a Broadway stage would be big enough to handle a musical number choreographed by Busby Berkeley.
Which is why Glee often feels like such an odd duck of a musical. One minute, we're in "ignore the plot, just enjoy the music" land. Next minute, we get a serious social issue as Karofsky threatens Kurt again.

I am so tired of Rachel/Finn drama that I could cry real tears.

Why did New Directions get two numbers and everyone else got one? It wasn't even a mashup, it was two numbers.

The Hipsters number reminded me (and was surely based on) the young @ heart chorus. Watching the documentary about them had me with the same expression on my face as Puck had on his. Choke up city.

I think we just saw one sample number from each of the other two teams. Last year each team supposedly did three numbers at sectionals.

Okay, but there should have been some indication of that. Something like when the Director of the DMV was talking at the end, he could have reintroduced the groups, i.e. "New Directions, singing 'I Had the Time of My Life', 'blah', and 'blah'" (hold for applause) "The Warblers, singing 'Hey Soul Sister', 'blah', and 'blah' ", Etc.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Yeah. I think they basically have 15 minutes or so to fill. (I'm pretty sure they don't draw an audience like that for an ostensibly ten minute show.

Perhaps, but let me ask: "Would you have then be mad to not hear the Hipsters singing 'School's Out for the Summer' or whatever? I think it would be unnessecary, and probably even more annoying.

No. I would have understood why they did it.

Didn't at one point, when Will was yelling at ND for the umteenth time, say something about working together for six minutes? I don't have a DVR, but I thought, well, that's just one song, seems short for Sectionals. Then ND did two numbers, while the other two groups did one.
I was also confused by the age of the Hipsters, as I thought all of this was for high school glee clubs. I know, logic not driving the Glee train.
Curt continues to break my heart. And I really really really want to see Puck and New Girl beat up Krawalky (or whatever the bully's name is. I have a hard time with names on this show.).
