Mom is insisting on watching with me again. Expect more commentary from her.

[ChrisColferFan1]

I am not watching, but will read comments about this episode on this thread.

[Jellyrolls]

I'll be watching because that's what I do for you people

Plus, we kind of got a Kurt solo in this episode (even if it's a crappy song).

[Ranwing]

Jellyrolls - you won't be alone. Call me a glutton for punishment, but I'm stuck here.  

At least with Kurt in NY and not stuck having to prop up the Grease Stain, this ep should be marginally better.

I think Kurt solo will be the best thing about the episode.

[Ranwing]

Well... this is off the a mediocre start.

Rachel wanted Funny Girl for everyone at McKinley? Oh dear... that's a rather large pile of bullshit you're trying to shovel, Rachel. And that smile? Yeah, you're not jealous at all.

She lost the part? It seems like it from your post.

[Jellyrolls]

Ugly bowtie and shirt on Blaine in the opening scene.

So, Kitty is definitely a sophomore.

What a lame way of showing revolution. What was the point? Poor Jenna always gets the shaft.

Dantana. Santana looking at the new girl.

Who would have thought that Santana would have been the first to get a pro acting gig. I like yeast in my bagel but not in my muffin? How did that get past the sensors.

It's mini Santana. Her head moves like a bobble head. OK, too much Bree on Blee.

Chord is looking really really old in the scene with Sue and Schue.

I'm making a lot of rhymes.

Busted Timerfake. hehe.

Nipples the stripping clown? That was random.

Kurt's vest looks interesting. Kurt in response to Rachel saying he just got engaged: "I'm not pinning all my future happiness on it." That's right, Kurt, honey. You won't be getting happines from that one. Destined for more pain and misery with the cheating bastard.

Get back was fun. Chris sounded great. I love that he can sell even bad songs

[Ranwing]

We don't know yet. But she's going full on melodrama and feeling sorry for herself because she hasn't heard yet.

Have to admit that I loved Get Back. The context was a bit klutzy, but nothing of Kurt's lines got cut. Rachel's parts still sound like something out of a cheap porn film.

[Jellyrolls]

They just showed a commerical for the season 4 dvd that included a title that said "celebrate the characters you love" followed by a shot of Hummelberry. Yes, glee, we want the characters we love.

[brisallie]

What? Get Back was already performed it? No I missed it

[ChrisColferFan1]

We don't know yet. But she's going full on melodrama and feeling sorry for herself because she hasn't heard yet.

Okay, thank you. I hope she does not get the part.

[Divalicious]

I still have a couple of hours to go for the show. I like reading your comments, it helps prepare me, because I know in about 30 minutes someone will post Rachel got the understudy job. I just know it.

[brisallie]

What the hell was that impression?

Oh please, how easily Sam falls in love?

[Jellyrolls]

The school nurse was just practicing giving a shot on a sausage. Recycle alert: Glee did the unqualified nurse story in season one.

Recycle alert: Glee did the angry rip down posters that someone doesn't like in season 3.

"I like the lady parts." OK Dani.

OK, so it is weird seeing Rachel and Santana talking about Santana's love life. OK, I just don't get them as friends. It's weird.

OK, yeah, so that's appropriate, Blaine and Artie. Encourage Sam to pursue the school nurse.

OMG. I think Chord watched Darren performances to inspire him for the filming of Something. So many derp faces.

Sam needs some shampoo and a haircut.

Is this song over yet? Ugh.

Kurt's vest looks interesting.  Kurt in response to Rachel saying he just got engaged:  "I'm not pinning all my future happiness on it."  That's right, Kurt, honey.  You won't be getting happines from that one.  Destined for more pain and misery with the cheating bastard.

Well, at least we don't have to worry about Kurt sacrificing his dreams for Blaine. I get the feeling that Kurt isn't nearly into being engaged as Blaine is, but that just might be me projecting.  

Have to admit that I dig the chemistry between Santana and Dani. Unfortunately this relationship has a built in expiration date, so it's going to be hard to get invested.

I just can't Sam and Nurse Penny. This guy falls in love as frequently as I change panties. What a waste of "Something".

You are most likely right on Rachel got the understudy Job. I hope you are wrong though.

Recycle Alert: Isn't the Sam and and the nurse storyline just a rehash of Puck and Shelby?

99.98% of the McKinley storyline is recycled. This is the greenest show around.

[brisallie]

I like Dantana performance, is sweet. But is still hard for me to ship them, I don't know why I see them more as friends

[Divalicious]

And technically she is an adult, and he a minor in school. She is also in a position of authority. This is wrong in so many ways, and I can see stupid kids pushing him, guys are all about getting some, but for her to entertain the idea is pitiful. I think I will clean the cat boxes when this scene comes on.

[Jellyrolls]

Wow. Sue did something Figgy never did. Fired someone for imcompetance.

Vote for Tina, don't be racist? Really Dottie?

I am so done with baby santana. Way too much screen time.

OK, the Pezberry relationship is so weird to me. I just don't like Rachel being so supportive of her.

Here comes the sun is pretty, but Demi and Naya's voices are too similar.

I know. It says so in my signature
