erilynAt approx 32 minutes through the episode, I have a question...
am I supposed to feel bad that they didn't win? that Journey medley just wasn't as good as the Bohemian Rhapsody performance (though I wasn't totally wild about it either, and they shared the leads around even less than New Directions). That Journey medley was among the lesser group performances of the season for me. Everyone (apart from brief bits for Puck and Santana and did Mercedes get something?) were backup singers for Finn and Rachel, and the choreography was uninteresting. Probably doesn't help that I'm not really familiar with the songs apart from Don't Stop Believing.
ETA: Ah, at least Will acknowledges that maybe they weren't good enough to beat Vocal Adrenaline, but they should have come second. We didn't see enough of the other group to make that call, and I wanted to hear more of Josh Groban/Oliva Newton-John mashups.
ETA(2): okay, "To Sir With Love" is really really pretty. And we actually get to hear more than just Finn and Rachel! I don't think Will is that great a teacher, but whatever, it's sweet. OMG what the fuck is Kurt wearing?
ETA(3): Sue is totally saving this episode for me.
ETA(4): This version of Over the Rainbow is making me think of that legendary show, Young Americans, and the incredibly homoerotic ending as the two boys run away together to someone's beach house (or something) while that song plays.
ETA(5): ugh, Rachel's mother adopting Beth rubs me the wrong way. I'm not saying Quinn should have kept her, but seriously?
ETA(6): so are Finn and his mum still living with the Hummels? Or did they move back out when Burt went off at Finn?
WHY DOES THIS SHOW FILL ME WITH EQUAL AMOUNTS OF ENJOYMENT AND ANNOYANCE?
