Gossip Girl Season 4 Ep 17 : Empire Of The Son





Having to wait until April really sucks. I want the Dair kiss fallout now.

Dorota being suspicious because Blair was serene cracked me up. Just like Rufus's horror over the idea of Dan's secret friend being Blair.

So Serena you find out that the father of one of your oldest and closest friends was beat up on the say-so of your new boyfriend and just, what? Shrug it off and don't think to tell Nate or the Captain? Ugh. Also why on earth did Serena keep the affidavit? And in her underwear drawer of all places? Just in case you needed it? For what Serena? To hold over your mother's head the next time you were pissed?

I'm not too shocked to find out that Raina's mom was killed in that fire but I don't understand why Russel is hiding it from her. It's better for her to think her mom bailed instead of tragically died? He's the reverse Bart!

90210 Season 3 Ep 17: Blue Naomi






Hallelujah! The Emily saga is over! I also saw the set-up coming a mile away. I knew Liam wasn't stupid enough to blow off Emily's manshirt ploy.


As for Silver/Ade, how ridiculous. Silver already filmed herself having sex with Dixon and showed it to the school, is another naked picture of her really going to be worse?

I did like Naomi and Max. It's a very silly storyline, but I do think Naomi is the best character on the show, even if she seems to have confused flirting with starring in a porn movie. That was the only way I could explain her sexy school girl outfit in the library. 



I can't even speak as to Snoop Dogg. I felt dirty just watching that sad excuse for a poorly product placed moment disguised as a plot point.


And lastly, Ivy. Aw. She's got a rough road ahead of her, I can tell.

Parks and Recreation Season 3 Ep 6 : Indianapolis





Was Dennis Feinstein's license place "SMELLS"? Awesome.

I really liked this episode. Ron was absolutely incredible. Although he had many award winning lines, his demands for "All the bacon and eggs you have" won me over.

I'm glad Andy and April gave the money back. (That was definitely April's intent too, right? Since they both came to a conclusion at the same time, I just heard Andy, and saw them dump the money in the jar.) I have no clue how she managed to get a gigantic plate of Pigs in a Blanket made for a party of 25, but well done.

I figured that the woman's razor and pink cap would belong to Chris, but did not see that break-up happening. At least we get to keep Ann in Pawnee a little longer.

Community Season 2 Ep 17 : Intro to Political Science





I about died during this episode. Some of my favorite lines:

Troy- "Do you just constantly have your own little side adventures?
Abed- " Yep."
Troy- "Yeah. Me too."

Britta-"Well I don't want to be that guy..."
" I don't care."
Shirley-"Well Pierce, we're glad to have to you back I'm assuming."

And I could go on so I'll stop while I'm ahead. Donald Glover's line delivery are getting ridiculous at this point, I mean how do you make every line you get funny? Giliian Jacob's too, I can't believe there was a time I didn't find her funny on this show. I love her now. Oh, and Magnitude's "POP! POP!", should have wore on me, but every time he did it I laughed harder and harder. Maybe it was because the audience did too. I loved this episode got to rewatch to catch some more.

The Vampire Diaries Season 2 Ep 16 : The House Guest





Loved this episode. Has there ever been a show where SO much happens in one hour?

I was hoping Matt would turn, but this is actually much more interesting. Poor Caroline. I am a Matt fan so I still have some hope that those crazy kids can work it out. I liked that Matt immediately remembered what Vicki had said in the hospital, it made me think that he had been ruminating about it at least a little bit, instead of just assuming she was super out of it when she said it.

Candice Accola's voice is awesome and that scene made me smile.

I'm relieved about who the deaths were- I was so afraid that either Matt or Jenna was going to die that it wasn't so bad when Jonas and Luka died instead (though it was sad). Though I wish Elena had started to fill Jenna in at the end- I thought when they were talking in the kitchen that that was going to be the moment where Elena began to come clean. Though, as she put it earlier in the episode, how do you tell someone something like that? I think the best way would be if she just gave Jenna her diary (which I don't know if she still writes in), because that would be the most comprehensive way for Jenna to find out. It worked pretty well with Jeremy, when he stole it, because that way he learned about everything "off-camera." I mean, there is WAY too much to explain at this point.

I'm very curious as to what Bonnie's role will be in this curse thing. I wonder what Jonas revealed to her. I have a feeling that he didn't tell Stefan everything.

Loved, loved, LOVED Damon telling Katherine to get out of his room. Way to grow a pair, Damon.

I am hoping that more doppelganger hijinks ensue when the show finally comes back from hiatus (seriously, April 7th? Boooo.) I love the "Is it Elena or Katherine" moment at the beginning of the episode- I genuinely had no idea which was which.

Modern Family Season 2 Ep 16 : Regrets Only





Who knew Ed O'Neill could sing?

A very good episode, with some great lines, and the sight of Mitchell leaning his head on Cam's shoulder during 'Harp Attack' made my heart melt.

The Game Season 4 Ep 6 : You Say Goodbye I Say Hello





Well I think the theme this season is Consequences and Repercussions. Every character this season is learning that and tonight's was Kelly Pitts turn.

Kelly learned a hard lesson that in wanting to be a celebrity everything comes at a price, and that price was in the form of having your 13 year old daughter posing half naked on the internet. I loved that the show is looking at how usually the kids of reality show stars are always toxic, and Brittany Daniel delivered in her scenes of grief, anger, and sadness over her realization that she's not really a great parent.With Brittany Daniel only signed on for half the season it looked as if we won't see her for a while, sucks cause they gave us a nice Jason Kelly scene at the end.

Malik also got some great advice in the form of his lovely rehab partner. He realized his part in his problems and ended up making up with TT in the end. Hope it lasts

Glee Season 2 Ep 14 : Blame It On The Alcohol





This was just pure entertainment all the way through.

And it was good to see Emma again. The adult storyline was meh, but it didn't want to make me tear my hair out.

Weepy drunk Santana = life made.

Heather was incredible on that Ke$ha number.

I guess they sort of left the bisexuality thing open-ended. Which works if they pull of next week well.

All in all, I was beyond entertained. 
Drunk Glee Kids are hilarious. I love that the episode was saying "Yes, drinking can be fun to a point...but don't over do it." So many "special" episodes only have negative things to say.

Gossip Girl Season 4 Ep 16 : While You Weren’t Sleeping





Dair continue to be the only reason to watch. Love, love, love that last scene. I let out an audible "awww!" at Blair falling asleep on Dan's shoulder. (And talk about being practically on his lap!)

I'm going to mentally block Blair saying she tried to speed up her powerful woman process so that she could get back to Chuck. The dope isn't worth your time, Blair! Get over him! He obviously doesn't get a rat's ass about you!

The whole BI plot continues to be boring. I was so excited when Lily slapped Chuck and said she no longer supported him after the way he treated her last week, and was inflated and not surprised but still horrified that it was a fake-out.

I'll join the let's kill Chuck off petition! He doesn't add anything to the plot nowadays and even his outfits are boring (or are too bizarre to like) these days.

90210 Season 3 Ep 16: It's High Time





Okay, I liked the episode. Navid and Dixon goofily dancing together at a gay club made it for me.

I liked Naomi and her nerd, and I loved that he rejected her. I even liked Adrianna finding out Silver was cheating with Navid.

As for Annie and Emily, bleh. You know what actually will look bad to colleges Annie? THAT YOU KILLED SOMEONE AND COVERED IT UP! I mean, jeez, a three day suspension is the least of her issues.

Desperate Housewives Season 7 Ep 15 : Farewell Letter





Susan .seriously, manipulating people with her disease -- I hope she dies horribly painfully and alone, as once again she and Mike have no screentime together.

Gaby of course knocks it out of the park. Again. I thought the switched-at-birth storyline was going to be a bunch of shit this season, but it's really given Eva Longoria some great material.

I don't get the Paul-Zach story. I guess Zach blames his childhood trauma of seeing Mary-Alice murder Deidre on Paul? I'm glad he finally came clean with Beth about Felicia.

Lynette and the boys, I don't care. Of course Lynette accepts blame as usual. Wait, no, I still don't care.

Bree: "But I've never fallen out of love with my children!" Except that one time I abandoned Andrew on the side of the road and he wound up a homeless rent-boy.

Could the women start interacting finally? Maybe?

Young Justice Season 1 Ep 7 : Denial




This episode had a nice vibe to it.  Kent obviously got on well with the kids, and his longing for his dead wife was palpable.  The chemistry between Artemis and the rest of the team is starting to gel, and she and Wally will become an item.  I don't know how the spy subplot will work it's way in, but I'm sure it will.
 nteresting that Aqualad's powers are technomage-ish, no?  
 In the World Building department- it looks like there was a Justice Society back during WWII, but there is a huge gap between the JSA and the JLA of today, time wise.
There also appears to be a living Martian society.  J'Onn and M'Gann do not seem to be the only Martians in existence.
 Overall, a good change-up pitch in a rapidly developing universe.

Parks and Recreation Season 3 Ep 5 : Media Blitz





Good god, so funny. LOVED the recurring Pawnee folks, esp the newspaper reporter and how Leslie was once again suggesting ridiculous headlines.

April/Andy - her 'bratty' behavior honestly hasn't bothered me. Her liking Andy in the first place was such a step outside of the constructed personality she had made for herself, so it always felt like she was taking a chance wanting to be involved with someone that was so open and sweet while she's more comfortable hiding in her shell of sarcasm. She is only 20/21 - when I look back at myself at that age, man, I could be a huge idiot. Add on that the Ann threat was something that was always in the back of her mind, and then that threat basically came true. Plus, as lovable as he is, Andy's a flake. Her testing him so hard made sense to me. I loved the kiss! It was sweet (and dare I say hot).

Damn, they left us hanging with Ann/Chris - didn't realize I was so involved until they didn't finish that conversation!

I would love to be Ron's assistant. Being rude and uncommunicative on my boss's behalf = heaven.

And yeah, Lost Bird Guy for the win- I rewinded that 3 times. 

Community Season 2 Ep 16 : Intermediate Documentary Filmmaking





Hilarious episode thanks to Levar, Gillian, and especially Donald.


Donald Glover is always funny, but Troy's freakouts were epic. Rocking on the floor of bathroom, crying and singing the theme to Reading Rainbow shouldn't be that funny, but with DG, it is hilarious.


Pierce is still not redeemed. Still an addict. Wonder where they are going with this, but after tonight's episode and its many callbacks to previous shows, I totally trust that it will be handled well and humorously.

Abed wasn't bequeathed anything. Why? He appeared in the documentary, so what's up with that?

Oh, Jeff. Aw. Damn. So sad. Great acting from McHale. Great story.

The Vampire Diaries Season 2 Ep 15 : The Dinner Party





Well, Wow. Regardless of what happened after, the set up and execution of Elijah was amazing! My jaw dropped. I literally screamed “HOLY SH*#%T!! at the television,I was blown away by Alaric with the dagger.

I can’t believe Elena would fail to mention the next line in the journal. Good Grief. Always read all the instructions before attempting murder. So much for dotting all the I’s and crossing all the T’s.

Manwitch takes Bonnie’s powers. I suspected as much from the promo.

Elena's BIG MOVE at the end! That ending was ridiculous, completely unexpected, and perfect in every way. 


Katherine wins in the end. Yeah. I knew that whatever she was telling Damon, she wanted the opposite.

And I missed Lexi, RIP.


Maybe the best ep of Season 2 so far.

Modern Family Season 2 Ep 15 : Princess Party





"I'll miss Alex's graduation and all of Haley's weddings!" Good one, Gloria!


More Matt Dillon please.

Oh and Luke doesn't have to try and be cute, he just is. Loved when Jay and Gloria recorded the audio book for Lilly, Made me smile.


I cracked up at the rehash of Dede choking out Gloria and Phil trying to break them up with his "I've got Gloria!", and simultaneously found it kind of annoying that the show did said rehash of the exact same gag from Dede's last appearance.

The Game Season 4 Ep 5. Didn't You Know Who I Was





Tasha Mack again got a dose of reality this week from Dante. I liked what the character brought to the table. Someone that didn't let Tasha walk all over him and was able to mellow her at times. With all of that said i loved Rick and Tasha and hope to see him by season's end.


Kelly also got a dose of reality this week. Judging by next week, her acting a fool on her reality show wont be good her daughter either. I do like that the show will be tackling how embarrassing it must be for the children of reality show people.


Jason just can't help being a dick. He still manages to make laugh right next moments where I wish he would just shut up.

I think it was clear by the end of the episode where he went to rehab that Malik really did need help. He has been hitting the liquor hard for a while now and it has started to affect every aspect of his life. I think the pill popping part is there just to add to his issues while touching on the very real problem of athletes over use of pain meds.

Mel seems lost right now. It's like I barely notice her right now. I'm not even blaming this on the show or anything because I hope it leads to somewhere. I hope Mel starts to question what she is doing with her life by the end of the season.

Glee Season 2 Ep 13 : Comeback





That was...excruciating. I can't even...so painfully bad. Everything about it was dumb, dumb, dumb. And damn, I wanted to be excited over Rachel and Mercedes doing "Take Me or Leave Me" and the totally awesome "My Chemical Romance" song, but the former was ruined at first by bad context and the latter by bad staging and Sue. If the MCR song was done as a real group number to close out the episode, with better costumes, it could have been EPIC.

Don't even get me started on the Bieber. For all of Ryan Murphy's talk about introducing a new generation to old classics, lately it seems all he's doing is forcing poor, innocent souls like me to hear the current crap that's on the radio. Now I can't say anymore than I've never heard a Bieber song. Fuck. Lauren's number was also painfully bad and embarrassing. Were they seriously drunk when they put this shit together?

"I'll do anything to get into those enormous pants." Nice. Real nice. If Puck/Lauren is just going to be a bunch of fat jokes, I'll pass. Although actually, Puck was the only thing at all worth watching this episode.

I'm sorry to say it, but the Sue character has been run into the ground

Gossip Girl Season 4 Ep 15 : It Girl Happened One Night





Blair went inside a Duane Reade?

And Russell is so upset over getting dumped by Lily that he's doing all this nonsense? I guess.

Speaking of, writers, I saw the first season. Was Lily invisibly dating Russell? Because how did she have time to flit around Brooklyn with Rufus, do the secret thing with Bart AND see Russell? Or was she dating him before the show started when her son was off committing suicide and her daughter was not getting statutorily raped by her teacher? I just don't get it and should know better than to try to make sense of the GG time line.

Serena and Ben. Whatever.

Damien!! So excited to see what happens next with that.

Dair is looking better to me than it did when the rumors started so I'm gonna just delight in it because nothing else is even coming close.

I am shocked that this show remembered that Lily adopted Chuck and he isn't her stepson, but her legal son. Age of majority notwithstanding.

90210 Season 3 Ep 15: Revenge With The Nerd





Okay, I must admit, I kind of liked Naomi and the nerdy guy, Max? Yes, it was predictable, but AM is acting the hell out of Naomi so I am finding myself enjoying pretty much whatever she gets into. I also think Max is kind of cute and I like seeing Naomi be her high and mighty self but then be so self-aware. I think that's why I love Naomi, she can be so out there but she always is honest with herself in the end. It makes her a very sympathetic if not lovable character even when she's completely irritating. I also think she and Max could be cute.

Liked the Teddy and Silver scenes. I like their friendship, it comes off as very genuine. I also like the Navid/Dixon scenes when they are cutting up.

Okay, that's it for what I liked. Ade and her reality show bullshit is just tiresome. As much as she is on my nerves, Navid's attitude towards her sucks. This is only going to end badly. Her threatening tone about finding out who the other woman is at the end when she's talking to Silver is lame. Who cares.

Annie and her SWF storyline is ridiculous. Emily was completely cartoonish at the end when threatening Annie. So stupid. And we are going to be subjected to everyone being so completely blind to it (a la Oliver on the OC) that it's almost not even satisfying when it's resolved. If only they could bring Jasper back to take Emily out, I might take notice.

Desperate Housewives Season 7 Ep 14 : Flashback





Hallelujah, DH is back! And with a good episode, IMO.

Terrific acting from Cody Kasch tonight! Not many can pull of a coke additoin well IMO but I thought he nailed it.

LOVE the dark humour in the Scavo storyline tonight. A bit silly, but still fun.

I so can't blame Susan for backing out. For a moment I thought I was going to see another George appear. Though maybe a more geeky and less creepy George.

Bree's storyline was probably my leasat favorite storyline tonight but even this stoyline had it's good moments

Gablos continues to be my favorite couple on the show, and as usual, they were my favorite aspect of tonight's episode. There were so many moments of their greatness tonight. I especially enjoyed seeing them in therapy together and Carlos catching Gaby trying to sneak out.

All Star Superman Movie




Plot : "All-Star Superman" is the tenth DC Animated Film by Bruce Timm, directed by Sam Liu and written by Dwayne McDuffie. It stars James Denton as Superman/Clark Kent, Christina Hendricks as Lois Lane, Anthony LaPagia as Lex Luthor, Francis Conroy as Martha Kent and Ed Asner as Perry White. The film also stars Matthew Gray Gruber, Linda Cardellini and Arnold Vosloo.

The film is based on the 12 issue series by Grant Morrison and Frank Quietly, which centers on Superman's last days.

Young Justice Season 1 Ep 6 : Infiltrator











Robin's new word of the day: Outfiltrator
Yet another great episode- the telepathic interplay between the team while they were being 'stealthy'  was hilarious.  The team bickering  silently was priceless, and the fact that they kept forgetting (or selectively remembering) that they were all linked emphasized their developing relationships.
Artemis is interesting.  She's far too good to be a new sidekick, as Green Arrow and Batman claim.  She has secrets, but it would be far too obvious for her to be the Light's mole.  I'm thinking that she was the one watching Young Justice a couple of weeks ago, and Green Arrow and Batman flushed her out.  She may be the mole… or more likely a double agent.  In any case, the overarching plot just got another wrinkle.

Parks and Recreation Season 3 Ep 4 : Ron And Tammy Part 2






Loved this ep. Tammy is evil. Hitting herself with beef jerky to turn Ron on was hilarious. Nick and Megan work so well together.

Ron with cornrows was disturbing and funny all at once , not to mention the missing part of his moustache. "I didn’t shave it off. It rubbed off. From friction. lol

Leslie is uber-competent. I love that she knew exactly how to ask the favor of the police department: "Post-pizza, pre-ice cream, betw the third and fourth beer. They’ll be full but not stuffed, tipsy but not drunk. Should be around 9." She didn't know that this wasn't necessary, that the police captain would do anything for her.

The police at the bar were hilarious.

Community Season 2 Ep 15 : Early 21st Century Romanticism





Jeff's voicemail at the end of this episode reminded me of his revelation in "Accounting for Lawyers" when he said he "caught" caring at Greendale. It's one thing for Jeff to say he cares, but when he realized how much he actually does care and how much power the group has in his life, he freaked out. I love seeing the evolution of Jeff from his early aloof self to the current guy with a heart.

I wasn't too crazy about Britta's plot, but the rest of the episode made up for it. You can put me in the crowd of people who wanted to see Britta and Annie make out. I love that Annie leaned in. She was so tightly wound at the beginning of the series and starting from "Debate 109," we've seen a much more sexual side emerging (ex: her D&D sex scene).

Troy and Abed's storyline was so incredibly sweet. When a potential interest insults your best friend, there's no choice but to end it. And that's exactly what Troy did.

P.S. Troy's dance was amazing. I gain more respect for Donald Glover's physical comedy every week.

The Vampire Diaries Season 2 Ep 14 : Crying Wolf






I'm sorry, but Damon getting tortured was long overdue. 

I don't like this weird pattern of my favorite characters getting injured. First Caroline and now Alaric and Stefan. I knew all of them would be fine, but it still hurts to see them in pain.

Elijah means business! He is magnificent. However, he wants Elena dead, so I'm a bit torn here. Speaking of which, Elena is the shit. She was amazing and smart while dealing with that Brady guy. Also, thank God he finally bit it. He was an asshole.

Jenna is starting to get a clue, finally. Too bad her source of information is John Gilbert. Alaric should just tell her the truth if he doesn't wanna lose her. Another person who needs to know the truth: Matt. It's obvious they don't know what to do with him anymore. His character is going nowhere, he's stuck since he's so removed from the main storyline.

I thought I would hate this, but Bonnie and Jeremy were kind of hot.

So...Tyler is gone? Huh, what...

Pretty great episode! A.

Modern Family Season 2 Ep 14 : Bixby’s Back





Pretty solid episode tonight. The Phil and Claire role playing storyline was funnier than last years Valentine's show.

I'm getting tired of the Cam and Mitch storylines. Each storyline seems like it's "Hey look at us. We're two gay men!" I used to like their storylines but this season it just seems that they're trying too hard to play gay men.

The Game Season 4 Ep 4. Men In Crisis







Well tonight's episode was all about lesson learning. First up Tasha Mack who like her son Malik has a penchant of going overboard with the flashy and obvious. Dante provided sage advice for T Mack when he let her know that it's ok sometime to be a little understated, but of course that was lost on Tasha and her decelerations of being a baller lol . Terrance J was actually pretty good tonight as Dante and he and Wendy have a natural chemistry, I believe them as a couple.

Loved the two brief scenes that we got with all the ladies drinking and cracking on each other.

Then we have Mr Derwin Davis who definitely learned that in The Game of a baby mother and a wife you can't play both sides to keep the peace.  Throughout the episode we learned that Derwin was essentially lying to Melanie about going to court with Janay , and lying to Janay about Melanie which resulted in a nasty exchange between the two women and Derwin getting busted. I know there aren't many fans of Janay, but Gabrielle Dennis was excellent in her confrontation scenes with Pooch Hall.

As always supporting players TT and Javon brought the funny.

Glee Season 2 Ep 12 : Silly Little Love Songs






I know Santana has done some awful things, but she still did not deserve that beat down by Lauren. Violence is never the answer.

Puck/Lauren: They are hilarious duo. But, oh Puck you are not in love. You definitely love the idea of Lauren and her no bullshit attitude. He definitely is crushing on her though. I definitely hope Lauren can help Puck learn that his way of treating women is not cool.

I have this feeling though that Lauren is going to be the one that breaks Puck heart. Kind of like Puck actually knowing the feeling of heart break.

Finn/Quinn: Thanks Finn! You chastise Rachel and Quinn for cheating on you with Puck, but now you are basically pushing Quinn to cheat on Sam with you?

And Quinn...I was loving you, and I still do. But, just stop with the cheating. I did not like you and Sam together, but Lady Lips does not deserve this behavior at all.

Rachel: Yay for single Rachel and her actually having friends and a sleepover. You deserve happiness and if Finn/rachel get back together, you better have Finn grovel at your feet.

Santana: You are a hilarious HBIC. The crying after the gleeks all called you out on your behavior was hilarious. And Naya + Nurse outfit= amazing.

Tina: I just wanted to hug you. :(

Gossip Girl Season 4 Ep 14 : Panic Roommate





I know this is Gossip Girl but Blair getting that huge promotion out of nowhere was just stupid.

I like Raina. I liked that she squeezed in some sex with Chuck and then was all, "ok gotta go and do my job". Too bad she started to fall hard for Chuck's lines until her father showed up. Stay strong, smart and capable Raina!

Now that Ben and Serena are finally together and getting it on how long will it take before Serena is distracted by the next hot shiny guy? Because this can't last. I hate that Dan has to be ok with Serena sexing up a new guy in his own home. It's just gross. I seriously hope Ben is pulling the long con on the whole group and they all end up finding out how stupid they've been. Does Serena think the whole revenge plot was all Juliet's idea and that's why they haven't talked in a while?

I felt bad for Damien for getting sold out to his father but he was a dick to Eric. But then again Eric should have known better after seeing what went down with Jenny and Damien.

90210 Season 3 Ep 14: It's All About A Boy





So Ivy becomes a better surfer when she is stoned? I have no clue where they are going with her storyline, but I just hope it isn't some lame ass "Ivy's addicted to pot" type thing. Surely after all those years with her mother (who if I remember right, does actually smoke pot(?)), Ivy isn't a newbie to weed or anything.

I liked Teddy's storyline right up until the lame ass end. I mean, who does something like that, and honestly believes things are going to work out? "Oh Teddy, sorry I blackmailed you to get my way and have you come out, but yeah, totally love you babe!"

I am glad Naomi's cult experience came to an end quickly. I was very scared when she started calling her friends whatever version of "negater" this show was using, we were in it for the long haul.

As for the rest, dumb. Why is Hallie Lowenthal still employing Annie after the egg fiasco? And sorry show, but I've already seen Single White Female, I've even seen the ripoff the original 90210 did. The third time is not the charm.

Also, shut up Adrianna. No one cares. And it isn't really a love triangle when the guy at the center of the triangle despises you.

Glee Season 2 Ep 11 : The Sue Sylvester Bowl Shuffle: AKA Thriller





This was a total trainwreck, but it was sort of good at the same time.

It pretty much highlighted what the problem has been with Season 2 - a bunch of random ideas thrown together with no basis or reason for any of them occuring. But I excuse them for that this time since they obviously couldn't do a 'normal' episode to hold on to the NFL audience. For what it was, it was better than what I was expecting from a season that has had some truly bottom-of-the-barrel stuff come out of it.

Katie Couric's list of losers was the best part. Thriller was a pretty cool number. All in all, this was OK for what it was, I think. I didn't have high expectations for it, and it generally entertained. I REALLY disliked Sue in this episode though, and I love that character. They just took it too far. She's supposed to be a cynically realistic nemesis of the Glee club, not a psychopath.

Finn and Quinn would be such a mistake too. There's no reason at all for them to be together after the events of Season 1. Can we stop pretending that S1 didn't happen because Ryan Murphy is obsessed with pairing off characters?

I like that Mercedes, Rachel and Kurt seem to have a little circle of friends forming.

All in all this was a really weird hour that I don't know if i liked or not. It did pretty much nothing for the show, but it had some good moments, so I guess I can say it was a success.
