Ann, that's a ferret.

("She's Not There" isn't a classic?!!??)

I don't think of it as one of The Great Rock Songs of the '60s. Not on the level of, say, "Satisfaction" or "You Really Got Me." A fine song, yes -- but not one of the Greats.

Was there anything after the half-time show?

Briefly -- the team goes on the field wearing the zombie makeup. They come back, and Karofsky makes a key block on at least one play. They win with a hail-Mary pass as time runs out.

The Cheerios don't win regionals, and Katie Couric rubs it in while interviewing Sue -- Will gets the Cheerios' budget.

Finn tells Karofsky that he's welcome to join the glee club permanently if he apologizes to Kurt, and he refuses. Finn argues that Karosky could help change the social order of the school by joining the glee club, but Karofsky likes things the way they are. Quinn, now in street clothes, gives Finn a you-had-your-chance goodbye kiss in the hallway.

ETA:

They tried that in the first episode with "New York"

That's right -- I'd forgotten. Still, Artie rapping or R&B'ing would be more likely to impress football players as "cool" than Rachel and Puck going country-pop.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh, I would definitely consider "She's Not There" a classic. It's probably the only Zombies song that most people know, aside from "Time of the Season."

Anyway, it still gets plenty of airplay more than 40 years after its release.

Art Crawl!!!

Yes, I believe that those are the only two Zombies songs that I know.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yes, I believe that those are the only two Zombies songs that I know.

You need to rectify this! The entire Odyssey and Oracle album is classic. Super gorgeous, smart weird late sixties pop.

And their earlier singles are also fantastic, with those cool Colin Blunstone leads and jazzy, electric piano chords: "Tell Her No," "Just Out of Reach," "Whenever You're Ready." All awesome.

The Zombies and the Hollies have two of the best, under-explored catalogs of the sixties. The Hollies are the only band that can really match the Beatles vocally, and on songs like "I'm Alive" and "Look Through Any Window" they're every bit as good.

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

They win with a hail-Mary pass as time runs out.

wait, what? Did I fall asleep and dream the most awesome ending ever? I thought the plan was to force the opposing QB to fumble on the snap, so the team started groaning for brains, the stadium took up the chant, the ploy worked & I forget who picked up the fumbled ball and ran for the final touchdown.

I totally remember the Katie Couric interview too. Weird.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Damn! You're right, Laga. I goofed -- it was a fumbled snap.

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

Aha! I was totally fooled because a couple times I have fallen asleep and dreamt alternate endings to movies and TV shows.

Wait, wait - I've heard "Tell Her No."

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Santana comes from the "wrong side of the tracks"? Did they say on another episode that her father is a doctor?
