Dark Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 So, I was watching my first episode of Glee ever, and it is safe to say I hated it. It's High School Musical-esque except the actual story and whatnot is pretty bad. But while their covers can't beat the originals (ever), I found some of their covers to be pretty decent. Bad show, decent covers, probably something to watch on TV. Most everything else sucks anyways. So discuss Glee, whether you like it or not, and their covers.

Tentacruel Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Never had the desire to watch it. As you said, it's very High School Musical-esque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted February 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Again, the show itself isn't very well-written nor is it amazing, and some of the covers are kind of bad, but I find a lot of there covers take a different spin on old songs. Except when they get lyrics wrong. That irks me. <___< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloister Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 My ex is crazy about it so I had to watch some episodes. It kinda sucks. Kinda badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deathcore Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 I actually like Glee. I didn't want to watch it at first since I hate HSM, but I watched it one night with my family and I got hooked. The covers are awesome. <3 Thriller/Heads Will Roll. I'll have to disagree with everyone in this thread and say Glee is a really good show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 I enjoy the show. Maybe it is because it is the only thing my family does together (watch this show). And maybe that has brought back that old charm of everyone enjoying the same thing. As you've said the story isn't that well-written, and it really does get repetitive. But there are times that they do a cover of a song, and though it obviously will never top that of the original, I like to see the different ways they go about approaching them.

FTW (For The Wynn) Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 It's meh. I like the show for the songs more than anything else. Although, Sue Sylvester makes me laugh sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickiMinaj Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I like it. It is HSM on steroids and sprinkled with some profanity. I like the tension between some of the characters and the storyline has so many plot twists it's kind of like the American version of BLEACH. I give it two thumbs up. I can safely say... I <3 Glee. ~ <3 Ino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twig Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Ist episode was meh, but the story gets somewhat better. Like Essense said, it's HSM on steroids. It gets pretty crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clair Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I love Glee, but I love their covers even more. Don't Stop Believin', Poker Face, and Rehab are my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I don't really like watching story-based television anymore because literally all of it is bad (including Glee), and I hated the storyline anyways. It wasn't even the first episode I watched, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mehmani Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 It's like High School Musical...in that it has music and is in a high school. I don't think Vanessa Hudgens would lace cupcakes with pot. Also, the average Glee viewer is 34. It's not a kids show. Maybe in Britain we would bill it as one, but America is so damn conservative that kids wouldn't be let near it. I like it (my love of Show Tunes is my weakness, admittedly), I find that the writing is good, the acting is brilliant at times and it is very well directed. It's very compulsive.

Renzoku Kira- Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 I like the show since it is more realistic example of a high schoolers life with the parting, drugs, alcohol, relationships, bullying. All except for everybody singing to make friendships. It does drop some of the subplots during the time, but some covers they do well. They put their own style on it. I am not a Gleek, but I do like the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted February 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 [i] but America is so damn conservative that kids wouldn't be let near it. [/i] Which totally explains why everyone in my school talks about Jershey Shore and Glee all day. Or maybe they are just retarded.

He's as Liberal as America will allow, but that's not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will agree, in terms of the world political system, we aren't liberal whatsoever. But we aren't super-conservative, our policies are still very moderate in the grand scheme of things.

Tentacruel Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 *Shakes head* I'm not even gonna bother. Most of my opinions end up being flame bait anyway. And if America really is ultra-right wing, then I as sure as hell don't want to be a liberal. (Not that I am anyway, I leik being a moderate... =3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
