Synopsis:

Spoiler:
Much to Blaine's chagrin, his big-shot Hollywood actor brother, Cooper (Guest Star Matt Bomer), comes to visit in the all-new Spring Premiere "Big Brother" episode of GLEE airing Tuesday, April 10 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (GLE-315) (TV-14 L)


Matt Bomer (White Collar) Guest Stars

:lol: Guess noone is stoked this is back huh?

Episode 15 of 22

In case you've completely ignored the other thread, this was renewed for a 4th season yesterday. Judging by the reactions, apparently the folks here only care about Fringe and nothing else.

The wife likes this so we usually watch it.

Between the show and the commercials, they're really doing their best to hammer home the texting and driving issue.

I didn't notice, I was texting

I only noticed because I was driving and watching the episode.

I've said it before but the long breaks definitely help to kill my interest. To be honest, if it weren't for my DVR, I probably wouldn't be watching still.

I didn't notice because I was watching this in arrears on my DVR and avoiding the commercials.

any one watch the Glee retrospect (already?) on Bio after the new episode? The cast and Ryan Murphy's appearence on 'The Actor's Studio' the other night was more interesting IMO.

I'll let my coworkers tell me if its worth checking out. As it is I'm done with this show after the last episode.

Pretty good episode after the long break.

:thumbsup: Matt Bomer was solid as Blaine's brother. Good casting and I assume it was pretty easy for FOX to get him since he already works on a FOX produced show (White Collar)

The season is resuming 1 1/2 month break. That's the longest break they have had this season.

Season 1 had a 4 1/2 month break after episode 13 and went all the way into June after sweeps. Granted, the show was a little more popular in the 1st season.

In comparison, Blaine looked like a clown with his overexaggerated features, bow tie, etc. It seems like most of the season they've been trying to desexify Darren Criss. :lol:

I want to see next week's episode and Brittany doing some 70's disco moves.
Thought this episode was ok. Songs were good, except I didn't buy Blaine doing "Fighter".

Laugh at Quinn being the texting police. Also laugh how nobody but her thinks she'll walk again.

Have three or four episodes on the DVR from before the break. Maybe I'll catch up, might be done. Def. don't have any more excitement for this show.

I mostly fast forward through the musical numbers these days... and the Sue stuff... and the gay stuff. So I basically spend 15 minutes watching 44 minutes worth of Glee.

It might be the longest break this season, but it's also the third break of 3 or more weeks this season. It just completely breaks any momentum that the show might have gained prior to the break. I find myself having a tough time regaining interest when networks do things like this. At any rate, it looks as if we'll have a new episode every week until the end of the season anyway.

As for this particular episode, meh. The song choices didn't do much for me.

Yeah, they said eight episodes in a row. That's practically unheard of these days.

In all seriousness...what is the possible point of continuing to watch at all? Once I get a fraction of that bored watching a show, it's dumped. Did it with Bones, CSI, and more. Too many shows I enjoy to waste time on ones I don't.

Thought this was a fun ep. Loved the acting class stuff. I've worked with more than a few actors who subscribe to those ideas.

I loved the first season. LOVED it. Second season was uneven but OK. This season has been a train wreck. I don't care for most of the musical selections. Storylines have gotten way to soap opra-y. But at this point I guess I'm emotionally involved with some of the characters and want to see what happens to them. Hey, don't get me wrong. I know it's silly to watch the show the way I do, but I'm not going to sit there and watch musical numbers to songs I don't care to hear or storylines that make me want to gag. I've already decided that this is last season I'll watch, but I want to see the characters I do like place at nationals.
