Glee

The problem with Glee, is that it has more characters than are really reasonable for a TV show.  It means that things kept getting left out because there isn’t time for every subplot every week, but then they’ll get brought back three weeks later out of left field.

So, for example, in the most recent episode, Will announces via voiceover that he’s over Emma.  Wait, what?  When did that happen?  He was still pining over her, last we heard, wasn’t he?  And after the huge deal with the Superbowl episode about bringing the football team together and people being friends with Karofsky, he doesn’t show up for two episodes.  And what ever happened to Artie’s things that made him able to walk in the Christmas episode?  And why was the season premiere all about this Sunshine girl when she’s not going to be so much as mentioned for at least half the season?

I also wish it wasn’t all Finn all the time.  If you have to focus on some characters over others, at least pick ones that are interesting.  More Mercedes?  More Kurt?  Yes please?  And can Jesse St. James come back?  He was probably one of the most interesting parts of the show, and I think he would solve everyone’s problems right now so it could stop being an “omg who’s cheating on who now?” show.

I do have to say, I am in love with Puck and Lauren.  I think that is just the best.
