Glee Favorites

Caveat: 
 I think we said it all on FB:

    Glee story plots suck but some of the song/dance performances are really fun. It's not for kids although I do believe "teens - tweens - young adults" is the target market. :-(
    I like musicals and this is as close as you're gonna get on tv these days.

    The show definitely reflects and subversively pushes a new agenda of "normalcy" into our culture. (The age old question arises -- "Does tv reflect the culture or does the the culture seek to reflect tv?")

    In this case TV has an agenda . . . . . LOL Maybe most TV does that --- Glee happens to be on HULU so that is why I have seen it.

    I love the Dream On piece (w/ Neil Patrick Harris)

    and Artie's Safety Dance?! That is just plain fun (and tight) choreography! How can you watch it and not get up and dance . . . I mean, really!

    Maybe it is 15 years of judging dance competitions . . . but I can sift through hours of AWFUL dance, vocals, gymnastics and then simply marvel at ONE good gem. Glee is a little bit like that

    If you can watch it and not, at least, smile -- you are from another planet.
    If you get up and dance then we are related.
