So I got to see the pilot to Glee when it first came out in the summer. I thought it was great! By the end of it I was attempting to set it on my DVR, only to realize that I couldn’t do it as I forgot, due to me being distracted by it’s awesomeness that it didn’t start till fall.
Sigh… I awaited with bated breath….
Not really. But I really enjoyed this show.
I did. But something was off when I caught the latest episode.
I see dead shows... ~sniffle~
But I think it’s me. No really. I love you, I really do. But I’m afraid. I’m starting to see a pattern, and the last time I saw this pattern, it ended in heartache. And, I’m not ready for this pain again.
It started with Chuck, not Chuck, but Charlotte Charles. Yah know, Chuck? Once dead, but was brought back to life by her childhood friend who really has a crush on her, but then when the show just started to go into la la land, she knew he loved her, and then it was just awkward stress of hiding this weird scenario from everybody else.
But it was awesome…. A ball of doughy goodness. Topped with a cherry. On a flaky crust of wholesome creepy awesomeness. Farewell Pushing Daisies.
And here we are. Glee. Why do you have to be so weirdly awesome… I can’t take the cycle again. So let’s do a quick run through:
Will Schuester has a crush on Emma Pillsbury, but she has a paranoia with cleanliness and is a clean freak on the edge of OCD. Then we have Sue Schuester, who is Will’s wife, and she is faking a pregrency. Yeah. Hmmm. Not weird yet?
Of course we have Quinn Fabray. Who is pregnant. Whom the teacher’s wife is using to actually have a child with. Then we have Finn Hudson. The football/glee hero, who got Quinn pregnant. He is so tired, that he needs a pick me up… And get’s terrible advice and a little blue “vitamin” pill from the new nurse. Who just happens to be Will’s wife… Sue.
Phew, and not just that! We get this all wrapped up in an awesome score of Bon Jovi mashed up with Usher.
It’s my life, it’s now or never… I ain’t going to live forever. Cause these are my confessions. I thought I said all I could say.
Now that’s an awesomely rich explosion of music awesomeness!
Did I just say awesome twice?
Who cares. I’m going to throw caution to the wind. And, have a whirlwind relationship with a new show. It’s like a new relationship. Bright. Shiny and can’t do no wrong. You are perfect.. I know that this time we will last forever.
Because if there is two things America needs right now, that is sunshine and optimism… and also angels.
Don’t we all, and you know what? I think we will work. Cause, you had me at…
Dear Journal. Feeling listless again today. It began at dawn, when I tried to make a smoothie out of beef bones. Breaking my juicer [ she sighs ]. And then at Cheerios practice, disaster…
Wow, it was just like Deja Vu. Like every gym coach that I have ever known… Yup sure is… Well maybe not, but when she describes people like this:
Mentally ill Ginger Pygmy, with eyes like a bush baby.
Your doomed with having one hurt Ginger Pygmy and a coach to blame for it.
This is going to be quirky, awkward and very uncomfortable. In the most hilarious of ways… Here’s to a long relationship!
so i just found you and then found this post. which as a huge disappointed pushing daisies fan (oh piemaker, oh piemaker) and a recent fan of glee, couldn’t resist.
are you still watching, because i about gave up two weeks ago, but i hear this past weeks, which i haven’t watched yet, was great!
anyway, kindred tv fan, couldn’t resist a comment.
(oh and the emma/will thing is just driving me crazy, get it over with already!
Sweet, another Pushing Daisies fan. I’m hugely disappointed in it’s demise. It was impressively good.
As for Glee, I did stop for a couple of weeks, but I have been catching up on Hulu.
No kidding, on Will and Emma. Maybe they are setting up for a pretty dramatic moment… Ooohhhh. Dang!
I just found your blog and was perusing when I found this post. I too was a Pushing Daisies fan, and now I’m a fan of Glee. This show is something my daughter and I share and it’s nice to connect for an hour. (She’s a teenager..connecting moments don’t happen that often!)
Anyway, off to read more of your posts.
That’s awesome. I was pretty much hooked on Pushing Daisies. I watched it like it wouldn’t end… yet I knew full well it wouldn’t last. But oh well, that’s why I have Netflix… it’s in mail
That’s awesome that you have that moment with your daughter. Glee’s a fun show to watch with your kids.
