<p>I wish they had ended the series with graduation last year. I don’t like the characters anymore and Matthew Morrison is absent.</p>
<p>I know that the show is far far away from reality, which is fine, BUT, it bothers me to no end that the school is letting last year’s grads hang around during the school day. It looks like Puckerman the Elder is having a sexual relationship with an underage Cheerio, which is pretty much why real HSs don’t allow grads to roam the halls.</p>
<p>Didn’t realize it was still on :o</p>
<p>I DVR’d the first few episodes in the fall, but D wasn’t into watching it, and I usually watched it with her, so we stopped recording it.</p>
<p>I haven’t watched it in more than a year. It was always ridiculous but it got far too ridiculous for me. And I’m a theatre person who knows some of the kids on the show. Even at that, it became unwatchable.</p>
<p>Not a fan of Glee.</p>
<p>I have to confess that up to last week’s episode, we were still watching it, albeit screaming at the TV throughout each episode with completely unprintable rants about how incredibly awful it has gotten. My daughter sent an email to Fox earlier this season to voice her objection to the ridiculous way they were handling an eating disorder story line. In last week’s episode, just about every character ended up in bed with someone, at a hotel no less because of course high school kids have easy access to hotel rooms, right? Gay, straight, previously straight but experimenting gay, you name it, they had it. They brought in the truly wheelchair bound girl from Glee Project which was in theory great because she is really talented, and then abused her completely by having her hook up with Artie seconds after they met and having 50% of her few lines be about her chest size. The whole thing has jumped a gigantic, Carnival cruise ship sized shark and needs the plug pulled. We are done. A pretty sad way to end what was a pretty good show.</p>
<p>Now ask me how I really feel!</p>
<p>My wife still watches. I still enjoy the music.</p>
<p>MJSMOM pretty much nailed it. It has completely “jumped the shark.”</p>
<p>Loved the first season, but it’s gone steadily downhill since. I haven’t even bothered watching this season.</p>
<p>I haven’t watched for a long while, but I’m curious- what happened to Matthew Morrison??</p>
<p>I have never watched it, but was considering it until the recent incident that made very clear that the show has no regard for independent artists. They are perfectly happy to steal original cover arrangements and give absolutely no credit to the artists who created those arrangements, even if the process involved creation of new melodies and lyrics. Since it is derivative work it apparently isn’t covered under copyright law, depending on the license purchased by the cover artist. </p>

<p>I rarely watch TV and I don’t watch Glee. I had seen an episode or two in the original season and knew the lead female as she used to go to theater camp with my daughter. I thought it was not a very good show and I did not follow it. </p>
<p>Then, this past year, I watched The Glee Project ONLY because one of my daughter’s best friends (and former college classmate) was on it and I watched to support her. She was one of the final three in the last episode but didn’t win. She is extremely talented and I know her well and she and my D have also performed together a lot. She is wheelchair bound in real life (unlike the actor who plays a person in a wheelchair on Glee). Even though she didn’t win, I was delighted to hear she was going to appear on Glee this past week and ONLY because of that, I had to watch to support her. I wasn’t familiar at all with where the story line had gone in Glee since the original season’s couple of shows I had ever seen. But I did not think it was good and it wasn’t realistic at all. Also, I must confess that I was shocked to see all the scenes where a lot of the young actors went to bed with one another in a hotel. I had thought that the show was geared to or popular with the teeny bopper set and that is why I was surprised to see that. While I think my D’s friend was really good on the show, as she acts well, they barely let her sing (just three words!) and she is a terrific singer. I am happy for her nonetheless, for this opportunity and national exposure. I will have to find out if she’ll be on it again because that would be the ONLY reason I would tune in!</p>
<p>I agree with FallGirl. I think some shows are just good for one season.</p>
<p>My kid, who was a huge fan, gave up on it.</p>
<p>I don’t understand why they kept the old cast around instead of starting over with new people plus the underclassmen. The stuff in NYC is painful. And bringing back the old cast each week is ridiculous. Except for Finn coming in because at least that has a reason. </p>
<p>Maybe all of Ryan’s energy is going into New Normal.</p>
<p>My D (17, so in the target demographic) actually enjoys the NYC story line and wishes they would do a New York spin off. At least that way they could have the actors in their mid to late-20s playing characters closer to their age, so it is at least legal to get into the situations the writers seem to want to write.</p>
<p>Asking one more time - what happened to Matthew Morrison??!!!</p>
<p>I didn’t watch last night since this is not normally on my radar. If anyone saw it, was my D’s friend (blond girl in wheelchair) on again last night?</p>
<p>soozie, Glee is on on Thursdays. So the episode with Allie was the last one broadcast as of now.</p>
<p>I agree that they really did not use her well (nor did she look as good as she did on The Glee Project).</p>
<p>If it makes anyone feel better, the one couple that is actually supposed to be still in HS went up to a room but decided NOT to have sex.</p>
<p>I still like Glee, even though it has always been uneven, to say the least.</p>
<p>consolation, thanks…I guess I didn’t miss it. I didn’t even pay attention to the right night of the week!</p>
<p>This is my guilty pleasure… It’s on the DVR and I watch it when I have some downtime and am mentally unable to do anything else.</p>
