I was curious to see how they were going to top or even equal last year's episode, but I really enjoyed it tonight.

It was a quick 30 minutes that's for sure. Enjoyable all around, plus it's tough to go wrong with Josh Holloway in the mix. He's network TV attractive, don't ya know.

I can't believe, even in the surreal world of Glee, that Principal Figgins would be so obtuse that he would have read that card out loud. (Should I still be tip-toeing around this for the west-coasters?) That he wouldn't have picked one of the other names. And that later he wouldn't have skipped the "Dancing Queen" scene, because honestly, did he expect that to go well?

No need to white font or obscure. Once it's aired on the East Coast it's blackfont territory.

Hasn't that happened in real life, though?

Kurt seems to occupy a different reality than the rest of the show.

Yeah, I don't get why Karovsky won. Except maybe that Finn was gone? But there was no hint of a joke on Kurt. That just seemed so left field.

I'm actually convinced the entire show is actually being told by Kurt many years later, while tripping on acid in college.

I mean this as a compliment.

But there was no hint of a joke on Kurt. That just seemed so left field.

My suspicion is that everyone thought they were being clever. Which actually is the sort of thing teenagers do. (Which I can vouch for, having spent much time on student government committees and having the discretion to skip the obvious joke entries. Figgens.)

But speaking of Karovsky: that actor is nailing it. He's found something believable and human in a character that could be a cartoon (and indeed, started as one.) I know a lot of people were mad at "Glee" for trying to deepen the character, when really, they just wanted to see him punished. But I like the idea -- one it shares with the Harry Potter books, actually -- that the kids aren't beyond saving. They don't need to be locked into the silly patterns inflicted on them. That's a message that's really at the show's core, and it always fires best when it stays true to it.

Glee: I figured that the vote was held school-wide, rather than that evening? I found it interesting that they didn't actually explain whether it was a prank, or intended to be a compliment? I mean, teenagers are often not smart. Kurt's feeling about it is indisputable, though, and that's what's more important than how they intended it.

I didn't see the twist coming with Karovsky but I enjoyed it. Characters that grow! Now if Glee could just have more than a few of them.

I'm an episode behind in Glee. Did Sue as Bowie actually have different colored contact(s)?
