Still, I'm feeling worse and worse for Finn- he's having so much pressure put upon him, and he's clearly a good-hearted guy, if not bright. Yet the writers dragging out this story arc where Quinn still hasn't told him the truth is getting harder to watch. I liked Quinn's archetypal mean girl Cheerio persona, but the more it drags out it's just sadistic towards Finn.
I get the strong feeling that the pregnancy gimmicks (Quinn and Terri) were melodramatic devices written before the show was a hit, on its own strong merits- they're sort of overkill and unfun, especially Terri's ludicrous plotline.
Glee just has a good fun heart, I really enjoy it for its unironic joy in music, its earnestness. That's why they're geeks I suppose, the lack of snark. But that's what makes the show so enjoyable too.

It takes a geigh to summarize Glee well, and that's an example. Thank you, Lovely Brian!
But at the end of the episode, we felt like we got our money's worth without her.
Speak for yourself! I was missing my Jane Lynch like it was a vitamin I'd forgotten to take. Fortunately, watching her show Fiddy how to fluff throw pillows on Conan was almost enough.

" I'll Stand By You", which made me find the Chrissy Hynde version and listen to it ten times.
Babygay Kurt is begging for heartbreak.

And how can he have a history of teen girl crushes, but not one boy?

Same goes for Finn believing he managed to impregnate Quinn when he's never had sex with her.

"Freak!". Sue MFS made me spit-take with that line. And then sold me on the compassion with her sister, movingly. If only Baywatch hadn't "taken a different direction", all our lives might have been different. #glee

The sing-off seemed a little fake, given that the ridiculously talented Rachel could actually be hired to play the part on Broadway. And Sue's new cheerleader selection would have been more interesting if it were caused by her manic need to drive kids to excellence, rather than just a soft spot for a student who reminds her of her sister. But overall, it was pretty great, and worthy of the Emmy nomination it's sure to receive. #glee

I had been wondering before and last night's fantastic episode sent me searching for the answer, which many Gleeks might already have known and processed.
It just seems to me that while it would have been hard, the producers could have found an actor who wouldn't be acting for that part of his role. [www.msnbc.msn.com] #glee

OT, but based on a Q&A I read this morning, is the guy who plays Artie geigh? #glee

They could have cast an actor who was a wheelchair user/dancer. Disability rights activists refer to this as "crip drag." #glee
