Glee Review: Comeback
So, today's episode was at times good, at times funny, and at times just plain awkward. First thing, why is this week's assignment to choose an anthem? That just seems like a really random and difficult to interpret sort of thing to do. In other news, Sam decided to become Justin Bieber and I was truly worried that, though he is a phenomenon, Justin Bieber would get his own tribute episode. I'm not disrespecting his mass appeal, but I thought that tribute episodes should be for people who have had a major impact on music, like Madonna. Then all of the other guys, except Finn (who is starting to turn out to be the bad seed now that Puck has gone completely good guy on us), join the Justin Bieber Experience and it drives the girls mad. Quinn and Finn have their flirtatious moment (artists apparently turn Quinn on), but it was in private. It doesn't have to be anymore now that Santana broke up Quinn and Sam because Quinn couldn't look Sam in the eyes and tell him that she doesn't have anything to do with Finn. Sue tried to commit Sue-icide, and with that she joined the glee club. She at first tried to sabotage the glee club, but Will tried to appeal to her nice side by bringing her to the pediatric cancer center. This may be some of the most beautiful and touching moments in this series as Sue starts to look like a real human being. But she has to turn around and lead Aural Intensity now that she has the musical spirit. Last but (not necessarily) least was Rachel using Brittany to spark her own comeback. It was weird watching everyone start to turn into Rachel, but Brittany was right. Everyone thinks very poorly of Rachel. So the best line goes to Sue: "I wonder if I could get that girl to join the Cheerios" after watching Sam (not a girl) perform "Baby". Best song goes to the diva-off between Mercedes and Rachel: "Take Me or Leave Me." Some of the best vocals and most powerful music after the hiatus. Probably will go down as one of the best songs of this season. Well comments, concerns, insults, advice, etc? Divulge below.
