But after all of the hype, leaked info and video clips, I was expecting something more magical. Something to bring a smile to my face. And while Jane Lynch's Vogue, most of Brittany's lines, and certain key moments in the Wemma storyline did provide general merriment, there were stagnant places, stale dialogue, and only so-so musical arrangements that didn't really do it for me. Sorry. I had to say it.
So rather than bringing you down, making you hate me more, I thought I would post this little interesting tidbit from Ausiello over at EW:
Relax, Glee isn’t taking a trip to Cougar Town. While it’s true that series creator Ryan Murphy is plotting a major season-ending story line involving Terri and Finn, the exec insists the relationship will be strictly platonic.Whoosh. I was afraid that this might be a "jumping the shark" moment, but I am sort of interested to see where this friendship leads. What do you think?
“Finn gets a job at Sheets + Things,” explains Murphy of the chain store where Will’s soon-to-be ex-wife works. “He is very down on himself, and Terri realizes that she was not very supportive of her husband and she sees a lot of him in Finn.
“She met Will at 16,” he reminds us, “so she sees a way to redemption…a way to redo that relationship in a positive way [by acting] almost as Finn’s guardian angel, his fairy godmother. She gives him proper moral advice. I liked seeing Jessalyn [Gilsig] and Cory [Monteith] work together.”
So much so that Murphy says the story will “will carry into season 2.” A romance, however, is not in the cards. “I don’t want to do that,” he says. “And I don’t think our audience would go for that. We just want to keep it a friendship.”
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who didn't jump up and down with excitement when the show was over--I was disappointed too. I did like the same things as you, but also the little Kurt moments also (his reaction to Finn when he sang "Hello, I love you" but really, it was the Vogue video that impressed me the most and hope the Madonna episode is as good as that!
ReplyDeleteI have to say. I disagree. It wasn't the best episode of all time (I think Sectionals, Vitamin D, and possibly Matress are above it) but it was excellent. I loved it! I have been waiting since the second after Sectionals ended in November/Decemeber for Glee to come back and I think I would have been fine if half the characters (except Lea Michele) lost their singing voice, as long as there was more Glee I was happy. I definitely didn't like Jonathon Groff, I don't think he lived up to the hype, but everything else was perfect. It was funny, exciting, and sad all at the same time. So maybe it wasn't the best episode of all time, but it was pretty great in my opinion!
ReplyDeleteSorry about that, typo in my comment (2nd one). Mattress is spelt with 2 t's! I knew that! Should of had a V8 :)!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. I was expecting more,actually. I mean, i enjoyed it it wasn't boring but it wasn't the best episode ever. When I watched the promos i was like : ohh my ! it's going to be amaziing! but it was just great. But vogue saved the day!hehe it was really hilarious! great website by the way! i've been visiting it for a long time!
ReplyDeletei thought it was pretty good i just didnt like how it went from everyone one not dating to puck and quin and rahcel and finn dating i feel like i missed something between sectionals and the hello episode but i am excited to see the power of madonna episode but i hope things start getting better between rachel and finn cause he really does like her it seems.
