GLEE

I've watched the first episode. Just seemed pretty meh to me. Maybe it's because I was doing something else at the time.
 
I was waiting for this thread. =D

I am a self-confessed Gleek, despite my hatred of HSM.
 
Heh. I've never actually watched this before. I think my little sister watched one or two episodes, and one of them involved the kids taking some kind of drugs or something like that? I can't remember that well... I wasn't really paying attention.

But the first few times I read "Gleek" in the first post, I thought it said "Gleeok" instead. As in the multi-headed dragon things from the first Zelda game.
 
my parents are pretty much obsessed with glee in a really obnoxious way, so, yeah, there's pretty much no way i'm ever going to get myself into it.
 
I watch it for Sue! And Will and Rachel. c: Because apparently I'm the only person who really likes Rachel and is meh on Kurt.
 
I really like all the development Quinn
got after finding out she was pregnant
. I was totally expecting her to just be a static nemesis for Rachel the whole time, but yeah, that was really awesome.

\o/ Airs here tomorrow! After my Modern Studies prelim... but I'll have to study for French that day too... oh well I'll take an hour off.
 
Emma and Sue are my favourite characters, and then probably Kurt and Rachel.
 
Quinn's development is awesome. It really made me love her... much more than I can say about Tina (who has to be the most useless character on the show). Seriously, Tina has awesome style. Why not put her in the foreground for once? D:

I hope that they give Tina more development. She could be a really cool character, and she has a pretty awesome voice.
 
I really want to watch this (if it has Defying Gravity, how can I not?), but I have a policy with TV shows where I'll only watch them once the DVDs have come out in the UK and are reasonably cheap. As soon as that happens, I'll watch it.

(plus I've got five more seasons of The West Wing to get through first)

Also, I found this quote and had to share it because I love it far, far too much:

IMDB said:
When Chenoweth was a guest star on the TV show "Glee" (2009), series regular Chris Colfer told The L.A. Times that for him, "working with Kristin is what I can imagine what a priest would go through if they worked with Jesus".
Click to expand...

I <3 Cheno :3
 
I loved Pushing Daisies so natch I can't wait until Monday! Is April actually, like, a student or something? Because that seems... o_O
 
Quite a few episodes in now... it's okay so far. I think the humour and context is a little too American for me to get my head around sometimes, but I guess it's a good show.

Rachel is rather annoying, but if they meant to make her that way rather than a 'putting yourself in the character!' Mary-Sue types then she's a good character.

Kurt is kind of eh and annoyingly camp (seriously, why are there so few non-camp gay characters on these types of shows?), Mercedes is okay and has a cool name, and I'm not sure what the whole deal with Sue is all about. Finn is meh. I want to see more of Tina. Emma goes between being extremely aggravating and kinda adorable, I need to see more of her to make up my mind...

But omg I kinda love Schuester and Quinn. <3 And totally not because I find them both inexplicably attractive
 
So, I've heard of three things that are supposedly happening in future episodes of Glee, and one on their own would be enough to send me into fits of joy, but the prospect of all three is making me nearly explode:

1. Neil Patrick Harris
2. Idina Menzel
3. Joss Whedon is directing an ep.

I've caved and watched a few eps and thus far it's great fun. I agree with Cirrus in regards to the All-American setting/humour/structure/drama sometimes being a little too much at times, but with all the amazing guest stars and singing and things, it's feeling a little like someone's poking around in the box of things labelled "Awesome" in my head and putting them all into a show.
(If they ever have Amber Benson guest star, I will actually self-destruct with happiness)
