Glee Season 2 Ep 17 : A Night Of Neglect





I liked Brittany knowing all there is to know about cat diseases, Santana sticking up for Kurt and Blaine and verbally taking Karofsky down (at least for now), Mike's dance, and Mercedes' performance. Gwyneth's performance was decent, too. The rest of the episode was boring, disjointed filler.

I have the same complaints about this ep that I had about much of season one -- people acted out of character because the writers needed them to to advance the plot (Will and Holly are suddenly both jealous enough to endanger their relationship, despite neither being the jealous type?), events occurred just because the writers needed them to, not for any legitimate reason (the club needed to be poor again? Of course Sue hid the Cheerios money in offshore accounts. Will needed to be free to get back together with Emma? Of course Holly conveniently got offered a four-month job), and the songs seemed to be chosen for no real reason other than the producers liked them (how many of those actually fit the night of neglect theme?).

Also, while I liked that both Mercedes and Mike got a few lines about being ignored and unappreciated, I was annoyed that Tina got crapped on. Again. We barely got to hear any of her song.
