The Official GLEE thread

[Disneychix]

I thought it was a well done episode.

I do have one problem that's been bugging me for weeks though...

Didn't they make a big deal during season 1 that you had to have 12(?) members to be an "official" glee club and able to compete in Sectionals?

New Directions has:
Rachel
Finn
Artie
Mike Chang
Chang's girlfriend (can't think of her name)
Blaine
Kurt
Puck
Devin(?-- the kid who won Glee Project)

Troubletones has
Santana
Mercedes
Brittney
Quinn
Summer
(a bunch of other Cheerios?)

Am I missing some?

I was thinking the same thing

Why o Why would Puck tell Quinn about his affair?? You know she's gonna use this to get Beth back.

Good point picking up on this! I hadn't even thought about that. You're right!

I loved that Coach sang in last night's episode. I hope she has more opportunities to do so.

And wow, Puck's an idiot. But he's still my favorite.

OMG, what a beautiful arrangement of "Girls Wanna Have Fun".

Agreed. It took me a few seconds to recognize the words. The arrangement took the song in such a different direction.

Aaaaaaaaaaaand once again Rachel's impulsiveness has gotten her into trouble. I'm wondering how not having her for Sectionals will affect New Directions even with getting Sam back (and WTH is Sam doing in the promo? )

I may be mistaken, but I got the impression that Sam was performing with another group in those previews for next week?

I think he was performing in a strip club. Rachel asks Finn for a dollar.

It looked to me that Sam is a Chippendale's dancer lol!

I have a real problem with the Puck and Beth storyline. It seems that this year is a "lets accept everyone for who they are". I'm sorry but a teacher and student affair crosses the line. I don't care that it's a female teacher and a male student. I don't care that Glee suspends reality, none of that. It's molestation, pure and simple. Any way you look at it.

In light of the Jerry Sandusky and Bernie Fine scandals, I find it reprehensible to go with this. Esp. for a show which seems to be about accepting gays, I don't think I can accept child molesters.

I get what you're saying, but I don't think a teacher having sex with a HS Senior is a child molester. Is it wrong? Yes (although if I had a teacher that looked like Shelby... ).

My guess is Quinn is going to report the affair, Shelby gets fired, Troubletones then have to rejoin New Directions.

It is NOT molestation. Puck is 18.

 

[sharbear]

I did not know that Puck was 18. Still it is very inappropriate and not a storyline I like. If it wasn't the year's storylines about accepting everyone and every kind of love, I think I would be happier with it.

Here's what I found about the age of consent in the state of Ohio (where Glee takes place) http://www.ageofconsent.com/ohio.htm So it looks like Puck is over the age of consent but I am sure it violates any teacher contract.

I just have a problem with this storyline. It comes close to a relationship which can be prosecuted and is in very bad taste.

puck made mention of him being 18 in one of the past episodes to the teacher.

Sure...in real life NO WAY would this fly and the teacher would lose her job. So would Coach Sylvester for the way she behaves. And any of the heinous acts of bullying showcased would've resulted in immediate explusion and criminal prosecution. PERIOD.

Way back in 1979 we had a young student teacher... he liked one of the girls in our class. He actually went and asked her parents for permission to date her and now over 30 years later they are still happily married.

I am not totally comfortable with the puck story line however...

 

[Dancind]

Yeah, I think that's how they will get the show choirs back together. Shelby will be leaving after Quinn tattles. I still like her, though!

Looking forward to Tuesday's episode, looks really good! I have seen Troubletones number online, can't wait to see what ND does to top that.

Yep, this has been bugging me too!!! They do have to have twelve, and neither has close to that. And the others are Tina and Damian, the two you didn't know.

I was thinking the same thing

Cuz he's a total idiot!! Quinn is horrible and of course she will tell.
That said, it's sooooooooooooooo inappropriate. They look awesome together and all, and he did make a point of saying he's 18, so at least it's not a crime, but it's still wrong. I don't know if Quinn will tell, or if Shelby will quit, but she'll be gone soon I'm sure.

Sam was stripping, and Rachel asking for $1 was hilarious!!

I loved all the music this week. I didn't even recognize Girls Just Wanna Have Fun at first, and Beiste did awesome with Jolene. That has always been one of my favorite songs.
I loved I Kissed a Girl too, watching Damian was so funny!!

The numbers thing has been bugging me, too. In the past, they made a big deal out of how 12 people were needed in order to participate in competition. Here's my count:

The New Directions:
1. Rachel
2. Finn
3. Quinn
4. Puck
5. Kurt
6. Blaine
7. Tina
8. Mike
9. Rory
10. Artie

If Rachel is not allowed to participate, that takes them down to 9.

The TroubleTones have:
1. Mercedes
2. Britney
3. Santana
4. Sugar
5. Blonde Cheerio, we haven't been given her name yet
6. Brunette Cheerio, we haven't been given her name yet

I don't look at sneak peaks or previews, so I don't know what's brewing for sectionals.

It is reported on several sites that Damian will stay on Glee! No one seems to know exactly how long--but definitely past his original 7 episodes!!

GLEE
Official: Damian McGinty to remain on ‘Glee’ past original ‘Glee Project’ prize
An E! reporter on the red carpet at a Trevor Project event today has learned that Damian McGinty, who plays Rory on Glee after winning a role on the show via The Glee Project, will remain on past his original 7-episode arc.
It’s good news for those that want him to remain (in a poll we hosted, the large majority of our visitors wanted him to stay). However, at this point we do not know how much longer he’ll be involved with the show.
Prior to this news, his final episode was to be Glee 3×10 airing in January.
When more is learned about McGinty we’ll be sure to share with you!
Thanks to Marc Malkin.

DD and I are huge Damian fans. On his FB page today he wrote that he had to report to Glee early this morning. I knew he must have finished his 7 episodes awhile ago. Yeah!

This has been bothering me too.

Loved tonight's episode!!! Sure it was a bit tidy at the end, but I don't care! And Mikes dad made me cry. Fantastic music and we got to here Mike sing some more, wonderful.
HATE that Warbler guy, yuck!!

 

[zoemurr]

wasn't she supposed to be a terrible singer? Also they said Rory was amazing but he didn't sing at all.
