i am SO glad to have GLEE back in my life! it was the perfect way to end my day yesterday, and i think my dream had a recurring "defying gravity" motif. :D
artie's finally getting to have some of the spotlight was long overdue and so nice. he's got a great voice -- i liked the "dancing with myself" number, but i'd like to hear him sing something that really shows off his range! my first reaction to his reaction to tina's faking her stutter was "oh, come on, what's the big deal?" which led to "wait, 'what's the big deal?' am i really that stupid?" and at that moment i think i understood this week's episode. i love sue more than i can say, and though i was hesitant at first to embrace her subplot this week, i think they tied it all together really well, and i can understand why it happened as it did.
i was also glad that they moved along the quinn-finn-puck plot -- i don't really know who to root for, because i don't like quinn much. i think my ideal resolution would be that finn and puck decide to ditch her and go off and frolic together. xD i love rachel (i know...) and since she seems to like finn, i guess i'm rooting for that... but really as long as they keep singing, i'll be okay with whatever crazy plots they throw at us.
of course the diva-off was AMAZING (every time lea michele sings i melt into fanboy goo), and getting to hear mercedes show her stuff on "proud mary" gave me CHILLS. that was a tremendous final number and i'm probably going to have to watch it again after i finish this comment. XD i am consistently impressed by just how good these kids' voices are (with the exception of quinn, whose face is nice enough that i get why she was cast), and i love that the show gives such talented young stars a chance to shine. i feel refreshed for now, but i know how hard it will be to wait until next week!
