A Scary Show

Rocky Horror was a good and bad show. I was impressed, shocked, and disappointed. As usual, here my lovely bullet points.

• Sue was awesome this week. She was helpful; she did not mean too, but she couldn't help it. Sue can be a good person and will always be one of my favorite characters. Side Note: Becky was hysterical this week. I loved when she told Schu to give her candy or "I will cut you." I made me laugh so hard.
• I am so happy that John Stamos finally sang on the show. I fell in love with his voice when he was on Full House and he did not disappoint. He was the perfect Eddie.
• Emma went crazy! I think "Toucha Me" was my favorite song of the show because she went so nuts. Who would of thought that Emma would rip off Will's shirt? I had no idea she had it in her. She really shocked (in a good way) me this week.
• Schu went too far as usual. He is really about himself and his wants this season. First, he put himself in a sensual number with the students in the Britney Spears episode. Now, he makes himself the sex toy of this episode to impress Emma. He is really getting out of control and I want him to shape up. He is acting like a teenager.
• As for the musical numbers, I was impressed and disappointed with the songs. I liked "Touch Me," "Hot Patootie," and "The Time Warp." I loved Kurt and Quinn during that song. However, I was very disappointed with "Sweet Transvestite." Mercedes is a great singer, but she was not meant for that part. A boy should have played Frank N. Furter. I was expecting so much more with that song.

All in all, it was a good show, but not as great as the original. I advise everyone to watch the original more than once. The first time, I sat there feeling my brain cells die. After many more viewings, however, I grew to love the musical and all its craziness.

It's Coming

Tonight is the night. It's Rocky Horror Picture Show! Even though I love Rocky Horror Picture Show, I am not sure if this show is going to be that good. I watched the movie this weekend. I forgot how scandalous that movie is. I have no clue how glee is going to perform this movie/play without crossing the line. Also, I am still not ok with Mercedes being Frank-en-furter. She is going to have to knock it out of the park because Tim Curry was amazing and that will be hard to beat. Other than that, I am excited, but not expecting a great show. I hope they prove me wrong.

Dynamite Duets

Glee this week was fantastic. Glee is getting out of the sophomore slum. As before, I am going to talk in bullet points to help my need for order.

• First off, I thank everyone who stood up to Kurt this episode. Last season, Kurt's dad chewed out Finn for having problems with Kurt and that bothered me last season. I agree with Finn that Kurt doesn't understand no. He tries too hard to make people like him. I'm glad Kurt's dad finally realized what was going on. I'm also am glad that he agreed with Finn that he needed to stop pursuing Sam. Kurt needs to learn how to calm down.
• Second, is Sam gay or straight? I personally think he is straight because the way he looks at Quinn. I really hope is straight for Quinn's sake because she needs a good guy. But, Kurt is suppose to get a love interest this season and all indicators point to Sam. I am very confused.
• Rachel and Finn were too funny this episode. Rachel was actually alright with losing, which I have a feeling she has a hidden motive. Anyway, during their song, I could not stop laughing. Their nun and priest costumes were priceless. I loved it.
• I was so proud of Artie this week. Are the cheerios determined to take all the boys' v-cards? Anyway, Artie was smart to stand up to Brittany about it. If she wants to be with Artie, she has to straighten up.
• Finally, the songs this week were much better than past weeks. I loved Mike and Tina's song. It was so cute. However, my favorite is a tie between Quinn and Sam's song, and Rachel and Kurt's song. I was smiling ear to ear during Quinn and Sam's song. I know, I am such a girl. Rachel and Kurt's song was so beautiful. I love when they sing together.

This is Sam and Quinn's Duet:


Well, that is all for this week. To see the full episode, go to: FOX

Also, could some one please tell me how to make the video smaller? I can't figure it out. Thanks.

Sue on SNL

Jane Lynch (Sue) hosted SNL this past week and stole the show. Here are her clips from the show:

Monologue


Relaxation Therapy


Mom's on Facebook


These are just three of them. I find them all extremely hilarious, but my personal favorite is the monologue. For more from her episode on SNL, look here: Jane Lynch

In other news, Rocky Horror Picture Show looks to be amazing. Finn and Rachel are playing Brad and Janet, Mercedes is Frank-N-Furter, Kurt is Riff Raff, and so on. The funny thing to me is that Sam, the new kid, is Rocky, Frank-N-Furter's creation. I personally wanted to see Puck and Finn in fish-nets, but oh well, it will still be entertaining.

Jesus Freaks

Glee turns towards Jesus this week. This week's episode was a mix of sadness and stupidity. Finn prays to a grilled cheesus while Kurt's father lies dying in a hospital bed. First lets tackle Finn. Finn hasn't a brain cell in his head for praying to a grilled cheese sandwhich. But not only that, he was praying for things like them winning the football, touching Rachel's breasts, and becoming quarterback again. Like three wishes, all his requests were granted, but the last one hurts a fellow player. Side note: Did anyone find it hsteryical Finn was pushing Artie down the field in his wheelchair? That cannot be legal. Plus who is going to hit a kid in a wheelchair? Anyway, Finn's religious experience is based solely on getting those three things from a grilled cheese sandwhich. After he realizes that its just a sandwhich, he questions his faith. I think that is pretty ridiculous that because he realizes his sandwhich is just a sandwhich, he is going to question the existence of God. That boy didn't have faith to begin with.

Now to Kurt. His story was so sad this week. A friend of mine and I both text each other constantly during the show (we don't have enough sense to watch it together) and we looked at Kurt's behavior differently through this episode. I would love to know your take on this. He saw that Kurt was being a jerk towards his friends for trying to stop their efforts. I, on the other hand, understand Kurt. When you are hurting, you are not suppose to act rational. Controling their prayers over his father was the only control Kurt had at the time. Also, in my opinion, when something like this happens, you do question why God would let something like this happen. I am a christian, but it honestly hurts more when people say God will take of it when, in your mind, God let it happen in the first place. That may be over-thinking this episode, but from personal experience, I understand Kurt's behavior.
Also, I want briefly to touch on Sue and her sister. Out of the whole episode, the moment when her sister asked Sue if she could pray for her (Sue). Sue's relationship with her sister is so touching and it makes me like Sue even more.
Finally, I was much more impressed with the music this week. Mercedes' two songs were so good. They touched my heart and all day today I was singing "One of Us." Much better Glee.

Glee For God

Next week, glee members embrace religion. The religious quest begins when Finn sees Jesus in his grilled cheese sandwich. From there, the glee club takes a religious journey. Songs include, "One of Us" and "Only the Good Die Young." Now I what some people are thinking, this episode will all be about bashing religion, but that is not the case. This episode focuses on Kurt's relationship with his father and Finn's cheesy symbol. Robert Bianco of USA TODAY Critic's Corner says, "For those inclined to find Finn's embrace of the "cheesus" offensive, keep in mind the joke's target is the confusion of a not-very-bright teenage boy, not religion itself. As much as any hour can, the show plays fair with everyone except the intolerant, who probably gave up on Glee long ago." This episode is suppose to be a tear-jerker that will have the whole audience crying.
In other news, Bruce Springsteen will possibly will appear on Glee. According to U.S. News, he may appear later this season. Speaking of stars, was anyone else disappointed that John Stamos did not sing last week? I hope that this coming episode will showcase his vocal abilities. After tomorrow, I am sure I will have more to say, but for now that is all.

For a Cory Monteith's take on this week's episode:
(Sorry, I tried to figure out how to make the video size smaller, but technology hates me.)
