Things I Love:
- 99% of what came out of April's mouth. My favorite? "So you're free to date. And by free to date I mean sleep with people. And by sleep with people I mean have sex with people. People like me."
- When Puck mouthed "Are you ok?" to Finn during Kurt's Home solo. Are they still friends? Does Puck have a heart? Oh, I have a hunch that we should trust Ryan, Ian and Brad (see me acting like I know them?) and that the plots we are missing are coming back.
- Proof of some plot lines? The Finn's mom and Kurt's dad storyline. It was developing and I'm excited to see the journey of both Finn and Kurt as this goes.
- The message -- they addressed body image issues and the desire to want to fit/be popular at any cost in a way that was great. I loved Quinn helping Mercedes; I loved Mercedes "singing" out and letting Coach Sylvester know exactly what she thinks (Christina's "Beautiful").
- Mike O'Malley didn't wear a hat!!! Name the last time that happened. I am pretty sure I read on imdb.com that he went through all of "Yes, Dear" without taking off his hat.
- Sue Sylvester's faces -- Jane Lynch is genius.
- The cheese level -- it was pretty high last night.
- The lack of high energy songs. All were great song choices -- but the duet between Will and April definitely lagged. I could have done with 25% of the song and I still think the storyline would have been furthered by the song.
- Finn singing to the chair/his dead Dad. Yea, I get how it went with the show and how it fit... but it was just too much for my logical brain.
Ok -- that is all I have at this point in time. My brain is fried (I was working on a paper tonight). Found this article full of spoilers. Looking forward to the rest of the season! Oh, how I LOVE Glee. :)

I was really really glad that it focused on Kurt/Mercedes more than on Finn/Rachel and Will/Emma. I didn't think it was a great episode . . . the songs were kind of underwhelming. But I enjoyed the plotlines. And the line, "I hate Duke like I hate the Nazis." hee hee.
Thank you so much for reminding me of that great line! My roommate, a UNC grad, definitely turned to me and said "I knew there was a reason I like this show!" :-)
It was great to see some of the other characters, too. Hoping the old Glee (not all new gimmicks) will be back before long!
