Glee - Out of Body Nationals

Last night's super-sized Glee was fun (love it when they find the fun again) but I must admit a little disappointing.  All the hoopla about Lohan being on the show and basically she had 3 (maybe 4) lines.  Plus, and I know we say this all the time, she looks nothing like her former self.  Pictured below is the actress formerly known as Lohan....


Anyway, some of my favorite moments from last night...

  • Tina becoming Rachel, Puck and Finn becoming Kurt and Blaine, Mercedes as Brittany, Artie as Santana and so on.  It was a great dream sequence and I loved watching everyone mimicking their friends.  
  • Puck and Beiste singing Mean by Taylor Swift.  I actually like this song a lot and this song was one that actually fit right into the plot seamlessly.
  • Love love love Paradise by the Dashboard Light and I love that this was the vintage song that New Directions chose to sing.
  • Unique from Vocal Adrenaline was awesome.  That boy/girl has some stage presence.  
  • Of course it was great that New Directions won but even better Schue won for Teacher of the Year and the performance of We are the Champions!
All and all a great 2 hours of television but it really made me wonder, what will happen when all the people that I love leave?  Will Glee be Glee without Puck, Mercedes, Tina, Kurt, Rachel and Finn (and Sam and Quinn and Artie and Brittany and Santana and so on).  With graduation coming what is going to happen?

Glee - Tonight

Don't deny it...everyone has been looking forward to tonight's season finale of Glee.  Especially since the last two weeks of the show have actually shown a new spark.  So expectations were high and well....I am not sure that tonight lived up to my expectations.  Don't get me wrong, there was some good stuff, buuuuut the entire thing felt like they were trying too hard.  A few things before I go to bed....

  • Nothing compared to Rachel and Kurt's duet.  I was never a fan of the show Wicked (do not hang me in effigy) but the music is incomparable and this was evident tonight.
  • Loving the twist about Sam and Mercedes.  Glad that the diva is finally getting a man.  Cannot wait to see where it goes.
  • I did not love the music overall.  I know that I should love the fact that the group is doing original songs, but I miss the hits.  And did anyone else feel like Matthew Morrison's solo seemed like a music video (or blatant salesmanship). 
If I wake up in the morning and have more to say, than I will.  That's it for tonight though.  What did you think?  Anything great that I missed....
