Glee


I don't watch Glee.  I don't plan to start watching Glee.  I admit there have been a few times I have seen Glee by proxy.  Meaning that it's on and I happen to be in the room.  Brent doesn't watch Glee either.  Of course if he did he would be watching it for the music and have to have me in the room so it wouldn't be weird.  You know a 40 something male watching a show about high school kids as they dance and sing their way through the ins and outs (Kurt coming out of the closet, not that I know anything about the show) of high school.  Especially all that sex they have and are having and talking about having with guys and girls and girls and guys.  That would be, just wrong.  So if he decides he needs to watch  it I will have to be in the room just so it's 'Okay'.


My daughter does watch Glee. A lot of people have compared her to Rachel.


I don't see it.

 I actually bought her a Glee Valentines day card.  I think she was very Gleeful about it.  I admit for someone who doesn't watch the show I found the card kinda funny.  She likes to talk about the show and I like her to talk to me, so since I have not watched the show I can almost talk to her about it.  We have bonded once again.  Yay.

 My son is too cool and will never watch Glee.  He makes it a point to leave the room when anyone even mentions the word.  I believe if it was a show about Marching Band he would never miss an episode.






Everyone I work with does watch and they tell me the good bits and pieces .  They yak about it, spoiling plots and tell me everything I don't want to know about a show I don't watch.  So even if I had recorded it I wouldn't have to watch it because I already know what happened.  (In the Valentine episode and the one after that.)  What's the matter with these people you think they would have the courtesy to ask.

"Hey do you watch 'Glee'?"

"Have you seen this weeks episode yet before I ruin your future viewing pleasure?"

But they don't.  They just yammer away.  Talking about Kurt and his boyfriend or not boyfriend problems or that kiss with Quinn and Finn.  Something about fireworks.  I don't care because I don't watch it!  You would just think it would be common courtesy to just ask.  Geeshe!!!

Ok I admit I have willingly sat in the living room to watch episodes with Brent.  I sing along with the songs and worry about Rachel and Kurt and that kid in the wheel chair.  I wonder why the football coach is such a sweetie and will she sing, possibly wearing a brass breast plate and a viking hat.  Will Emma and Will ever find true love in each others arms?  Or with Coach Beistie?  What's up with Sue and her obsessions?   I await each episode with the same trepidation I had when watching my first episode, will the music hold up this week?  What will happen next week?  I'm a Glee wreck and I admit it.

There Anna are you happy now?

The dog doesn't care.  He is waiting for the next Batman movie to come out.

  1. Well, I'm not afraid to admit that I am most definitely a GLEEK - my daughter is a GLEEK, her friends are GLEEKS, heck even some of MY friends are GLEEKS too! I'm pretty sure our dogs are GLEEKS, but they play it cool and just lie on the floor pretending to not watch. In any case, love Sue. Love to hate Sue and love it that she sings. Totally love the football coach. Kurt needs to come back to his old school and bring the hottie boyfriend/non-boyfriend with him. Quinn needs to pick a guy. The new Glee member is not that great. Schuster needs to find a woman. Laura Bell Bundy needs to guest star, and yes, I will probably watch the new reality show which will cast the next new member of the Glee club. If only they had come to KC to search....I know someone that would have fit in nicely - she could have even been a Cheerio - since she has experience with that too.

    OK, now this is my own blog, so I'll stop - Go Glee! And yes, Anna looks a LOT like Leah Michelle/Rachel.
