Watch "Glee"

<p>uskoolfish: it’s on <a href=“http://www.fox.com…just%5B/url%5D”>www.fox.com…just</a> get a cable from Radioshack to attach laptop to the TV…or just watch on the computer (not my preference but up to you)</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I agree, but to me, it made the episode seem somehow hypocritical, i.e., “Let’s dish out an hour of scantily clad, sexually-laced singing and dancing…but then we’ll tack on a little moral at the end to make it all okay.” </p>

<p>Don’t get me wrong–I like the show (and I grew up with Rocky Horror–even dressed the part for the midnight shows in college ;)). If adult themes/heightened sexuality is the way “Glee” wants to go, that’s fine. But the show can’t have it both ways. If they are going to preach the philosophy expressed by Sue, they need to practice it as well.</p>

<p>This week was just ok for me. I felt the last two weeks or so were much better in terms of feeling like the original show felt. But while I LOVE watching/hearing them perform, I also like a little plot to go along with it. </p>

<p>I’m still a fan though.</p>

<p>The show’s big moral lesson was about objectifying women by their attractiveness. Finn’s reluctance to take off his shirt, Sam not feeling comfortable in the Rocky gold lame short shorts, both of them stressing about diets and exercise and their realization that hey, women go through this all the time, all that was great. </p>

<p>It was interesting for me to see how the show edited lyrics and worked around some of the, uhm, touchier issues. The most highly sexualized content was offloaded onto the adults. It was Will and Emma singing “touch-a touch-a touch-a touch me”, not Sam and Rachel, thank heavens. We didn’t see Rachel and Finn stripped to their underwear. </p>

<p>Principal Figgins was right, though. What WAS Will thinking? It’s one thing to go see the movie and be TruFans. Another entirely to actually act it out. </p>

<p>The oddest thing is that the content has become more adult, but the show now starts at 8.</p>

<p>D and I both thought that last night’s show was fun. I agree with everyone that the character development is not there. I don’t know if they will return to more plot anytime soon, but I would like to see that also.</p>

<p>All the marketing is kinda icky- I was at * Claires* yesterday to try and find sticker or magnetic earrings for my Halloween costume & was surprised to see GLEE merchandise . ( apparently a tie in @ Macys as well)</p>

<p>If Glee is actually aimed at those upward of 18 yrs old( which was the explanation for the sexuality emphasis)- why the tie in’s at a store that is for 'tweens?

<p>My problem is that they have made Will so unlikeable that I can’t believe Emma will ever get together with him. And John Stamos makes her better! :-)</p>

<p>Frankly I think the( musical) numbers are not that special and don’t like the increased emphasis- I like certain characters : Puck, Emma, Sue, Principal Figgins…, but I feel like the writers are blowing the chance to improve the show-</p>

<p>If you want to watch shows full of sexual innuendo on television, just pick a channel- there is so many types of entertainment out there, we really don’t have to settle for stuff that is poorly written.
I probably would love it if I was a " tween" though - at that age I liked * Love- American Style* :rolleyes:</p>

<p>not the best episode - but this last Glee certainly had me and hubby humming & remembering our own days of hitting the midnight showing of RHPS, toast in hand…</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Glee is rated TV14. I think this show is perfectly fine for people 14 or older. Sure, there is suggestive material here and there, but overall the show has a positve message and a great show to watch.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I agree. And even if Will hadn’t turned kind of creepy, I find it very hard to believe that any woman would choose him over Uncle Jesse. And I’m not just saying that because I’ve seen every episode of “Full House.” :)</p>

<p>Even my almost 18 year old D commented that the Will-Emma number was creepy.</p>

<p>show was eh, at best…like others have said, kind of missing character development…</p>

<p>thought John Stamos sounded great (considering I thought he was completely awful in ByeBye Birdie…)…maybe the magic of television?</p>

<p>And I too think that the whole Will thingy was kind of creepy…</p>

<p>So I am watching Glee on Hulu right now- so far I am totally squeeved out by Will, I hope Emma tells him to back off- but I loved seeing Barry Bostwick & Meatloaf.</p>

<p>( also Dr. Carl vs Will? no contest)

<p>D1 watched the show a few days later on hulu. The parent who hadn’t watched the episode walked by during the “Touch Me” song, did a second take, and asked “Why are you watching a naked man?”</p>

<p>I know I’m giving this more thought that the writers of Glee do, but they need to give Will more appropirate outlets for his talent. For a while (one show?) they had the mens’ acapella group. And he tried out for that musical. And last season he was courting Emma. Now they have taken that away and leave him with doing musical numbers with the kids or with Emma who wants him to go away. </p>

<p>I think Matthew Morrison is terrific, but the writers need to write in an appropriate outlet for his musical numbers. Yes he is hot but he needs to find an appropriate target, not the kids or a co-worker.</p>

<p>Missypie, very funny! And true!</p>

<p>The episode on now is back to their old self with good, character-driven plots. It is so awesome!!! I am loving it.</p>

<p>I’m watching, too.</p>

<p>I liked it! Great characters tonight</p>
