Glee - first 4 episodes

Ok, new thing of today watched the first 4 episodes of Glee. Yes I'm behind, but here's why. We don't really have TV, we have Netflix. I find not having TV leads to a slightly more productive life, as I can sit in front of a TV for a very very long time. Anyway I had heard fabulous things about the show. From friends, I heard a few of the songs and loved them. So I got the season 1 and 2 music for me and my sister. Have not yet seen or heard the Madonna songs. I also would catch 20 minutes here and there of various episodes. I thought some snippets were very clever and interesting, and some snippets simply campy and cringe worthy. It's been on my Netflix queue for some time, so the number finally came up.

Yes it's the weekend and maybe in the 100 degree heat we didn't feel like doing homework and instead decided to spend quality time with my mom and sister watching Glee. Terrible isn't it. What a great time we had! Good family fun. I really enjoyed watching it and had fits of laughter over their fast quippy one liners. "Listen here man hands" and "When I was in the Special Forces...". It was new for everyone except my sister - who is caught up and watching Glee as they come out with her friends.

I love how they have inspired a love of song and dance. It's like a revamp of musicals for this century. No longer Grease Lightning but Bust Your Windows. Even the husband was pleasantly surprised and thought it entertaining. Plus I like how fun it feels. Such a nice change from all the serious drama out these days. It's also a great comedy and not a cheesy sitcom.

Favorite characters, well I think they all do fantastic, but I love Jane Lynch as coach Sue of the Cheerleading Cheerios squad. She delivers the most ridiculous and amazing lines so well. All the characters are endearing and I love what they've done so far. I may have inspiration for my Halloween outfit this year, different colored track suits! Ha ha, we will see.

I am a fan now - a late fan, but a fan definitely :) Go Glee!
