Glee

Show choir vet and music teacher here as well! I found I really identified with much of the show: the kids, the teacher.....Music was my "sport" when I was in school (still is, I guess) and I know what the teacher meant when he said that it's the place where he truly feels like he "belongs".

And I liked that it was wholesome without being cheesy or patronizing.

I hope they let the teacher sing at some point. His name is Matthew Morrison and he's got Broadway cred.

I just watched it and I loved it! I'm going to make the family watch it when they get home!

I watched it and loved it. I thought it was going to be a summer series so I was bummed to see it won't be on until Fall. Trying to decide if I should let my 13 year old watch it. Any thoughts?

Funny story...I told Miranda (the one who thinks Kevin is famous) that I was going to watch this show about a guy who wants to bring the glee club at his high school back to the program it was when he was there. She giggled "Glee club! Their dorks. People make fun of glee clubs." I looked at her and said "Glee club is another name for Show Choir basically." She is totally into choir, drama, etc. She looked at me and said "Oh." End of conversation, now she wants to watch it.

I just watched this tonight and loved it! I was also bummed to hear that this is apparently a tease for the fall, and not the start of a summer series.

I'd let a 13 year old watch it, I think. Was there something that made you think it might not be appropriate? You're the best judge of your own child, but it seemed OK.
