Glee- Makeover

Instead of running for top 40 songs we already know and own, Glee has songs that actually fit the storyline? Nice. Not that we liked too many of them. The best was A Change Would Do You Good, just because that’s such a fun song. Celebrity Skin sucked because Sam was doing his butt rock impression and Brittany can’t sing. Sorry. It’s sad that Kurt has totally ditched Blaine, but at least it gave Blaine that opportunity to join that cool fantasy-looking nerd club. We want to be in that… Blaine needs to stop getting so many solos though. He’s better in duets.

Fashion is the last thing Kurt should do. Have you seen his clothes? They are the most ridiculous thing on the show, and we all know that’s saying something. Two words: hippo broach. Sarah Jessica Parker is always cool, even in that movie that sucked (I Don’t Know How She Does It.) We didn’t know SJP was going to sing! It was definitely her singing. She’s not great, so it was good that Rachel and Kurt joined in to save her, but it was fun, pleasant and fabulous. We aren’t digging her character because it’s unrealistic that people in New York would be that nice and incompetent, let alone nice and incompetent at Vogue. We kept waiting for Kurt to wake up and realize it was all a dream and that the real world doesn’t just hand you stuff. It was refreshing to see things go well for him though.

Is it possible that Will could get a different job and we could have a different Glee club coach? Please, God, let it be so. That’s all we want for Christmas. That is so necessary. We’re with Sue. Quit, Will. We spotted Kirk from Gilmore Girls briefly. The actor was never what made Kirk great. The writing was. That’s why his career didn’t take off and he has a few lines in a Glee episode. Sam’s impressions are great. More impressions, Sam! Spot on Bush, but we prefer his Connery. The McKinley plot was mostly boring. This was SJP’s episode. Yawn, don’t care about the love triangle with Finn, Rachel, and New Hot Guy. Finn, you dumped her and didn’t speak to her. You could have been dead for all we knew. You have no leg to stand on.

Also, it's no fun to have a makeover on a character/person who already looks great.

Episode grade: C

  1. I enjoyed this episode. The NYC storyline was good. I liked SJP's character. But you are right, seems a bit unrealistic. I like that we get a nice NYC character. Don't care aboput Klaine. Sorry, never really cared about them. Was it just me, or did it seem like maybe there was something between Sam & Britany? Now, that would be an interesting storyline! I feel bad saying this b/c I've always been a Finn/Rachel fan, but I'm really starting to like her with Brody!

    1. I cared about Klaine when they were about to get together, but not much after that. Sam and Brittany would be okay, but we liked Sam with Quinn so much that we can see him doing well with Marley. He seems like he'd do best with a sweet girl

  2. I'm liking Kurt this season. And I like Blaine too. But separately. You are right. He does the duets better. And Rachel's love life has always been too much over dramatic for my taste. So not interested in that. You know, there is nothing spectacular about this show anymore. I think its time to bring Santana back.
