Is Jayma Mays off the show, or on hiatus while she shoots a movie? Been a while since we've seen her.

Watch all the bitching over a certain song or 2 being performed tonight be a 2 or 3 min segement.

I would also laugh if this episode ends up being the raunchiest one to date (given that my guide says tv14-DLS)

Re: Glee -- "Comeback" -- 2/15/11

So this is the first time I've heard a full Justin Beiber song (and it wasn't even sung by him). The only other time I've heard anything by him was in the commercial for his movie. But I have to ask... what's everyones issue with this kid? The music isn't my taste but it's the same catchy pop music that tweens have always loved.

I'm actually shocked its 11:30 (almost) and this thread isn't 25 posts of bitching. I'm not through the full thing yet, but its been entertaining
Sue:you have more grease in your hair then the whole wikileaks
We need to get this girl in the cherrios
The fact that the guys are using "bieber fever" to get in girls pants is actually kind of clever

I'm fairly strong in my stance that I do not like this show. However my Tivo had 2 things recording at 10 and this was recorded as a suggestion so I turned it on and sort of watched it. First off that one chick that was wearing leg warmers on her arms is HOT. The Bieber stuff was kind of funny. Did not like the fat chick.

It's "Hip and cool" to piss on what's popular.

And i like that it seems they might actually do original music for regionals, which would be cool to hear.

And next week looks alot of fun.

Here here - they just looked like they were having fun in this episode. And as far as I'm concerned, once a show acknowledges that something is ridiculous (Sue in the glee club, Justin Bieber) then they get free reign to do whatever they want.

And considering I got to hear Lea Michele and Amber Riley sing the only song I truly love from Rent, that was just the icing on the cake for me.

Yeah I thought they did a pretty good job last night and have enjoyed the last few episodes... It seems like they are at least trying to do different things with people so i dig that. Didn't even mind the Beiber songs even though Baby is the only one ive ever heard. But yeah, he's no different than any other pop act so if you think he sucks and Gaga or Usher or whoever doesn't, then i guess i just fail to see the difference.

Well since this was recorded as a suggestion it doesn't have a long shelf life and as much as I'm ashamed to admit it I'm a little upset that it got deleted before I could watch the last 5 minutes.

Maybe it was that the kid that wins the awards wasn't on there this week but like I said I actually enjoyed it. I did FF through a couple of the songs though.

I liked this episode a lot. Brittany being a "trend setter" was funny. It was sort of good to have a Kurt break.

I was more annoyed at the dumb plot twist with Sue taking over Aural Intensity than the Justin Bieber stuff.

Guess that 30 Rock guy has been written off the show.

Getting real tired of her character. Her doing the same thing each week is getting old. We get it, she wants to defeat the Glee Club.

Fun episode. So far they are 3 for 3 for me since its return.

However, how can Sue teach/coach Cheerios at one school and coach Glee at another school?

Though I have never seen One Tree Hill I have to agree that Glee has to do something about the couples and staying together. It seems like everyone jumps to everyone.

Re: Glee -- "Comeback" -- 2/15/11

That article's right on regarding Sue. When Sue is done right (written and delivered), she's comedic gold. But they make her silly to the point of ridiculous (and thus, discardable) too often. "Undercut" (from the article) is a good word. Let Sue be Sue. I don't need her to grow or be redeemed. The Sue of Season 1 would never contemplate Sue-icide. Sue would instead say something like this: "That was humiliating enough that if I were one of you, I'd be contemplating suicide." She might also tell Will, "Somebody needs to die and you're a lot better option than me." I want old Sue back.

I used to watch One Tree Hill in the early days and I did like how the adult characters had storylines too (including the coach). Glee has never really had that balance. Maybe they just don't know how to do it well, in which case it's better they deemphasize it.

Yeah the biggest storyline the adults have had was Will's wife's fake pregnancy which was bottom of the barrel entertainment. I'll take Kurt over that crap.

Mike O'Malley probably has the strongest adult role, but as the article mentioned he's disappeared this season.
