Sometimes I sing along (I can't believe I'm confessing all of this.) <br /><br />Evelyn - you're sooo right about the way Glee is reminiscent of the '30s and '40s musicals, the 'my dad has a barn' kids. <br /><br />Whatever they're doing, I love it and hope those kids never graduate.Rochelle Staabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700362801884548978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-72877596428968888152010-12-13T15:15:39.841-05:002010-12-13T15:15:39.841-05:00I like it too though I don't watch it regularl...I like it too though I don't watch it regularly, not DVR or TIVO so have to make choices.

You...Anjali, thanks for your thoughtful comment. You're right - That episode where Kurt was bullied was a terrific opportunity to talk about bullying. <br /><br />Dru - it will be interesting to see how the show handles the transition with new "students" entering the Glee Club. I'm glad though that the producers recognize that actors "age" out of certain roles.<br /><br />Marian -- LOVE the idea of matching pajamas!!!

It's something at home we can do and now we have official-Movie Nights. We picked up matching PJ's for movie night too! Fun!

Choir was my home, my safe place to express myself and feel a part of something bigger. <br /><br />I still keep in touch with most of the choir and even though it may be several years before we see each other we pick up where we left off without skipping a beat. <br /><br />I think the TV show Glee gives us all a safe place to share and talk about the difficult and wonderful things in life. My 12 year old saw the episode where Kurt was slammed into the lockers and it provided an opportunity to talk about bullying. It was painful to watch but necessary for all of us to start talking about what we can do to stop the bullying.Anjalinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-89288663820238155892010-12-13T12:12:41.282-05:002010-12-13T12:12:41.282-05:00I watched it more during the first season and now ...I watched it more during the first season and now I think it conflicts with something else I watch so I haven't seen too many episodes. I'm a sucker for the "let's put on a show" aspect of it as well and the scripts do tackle some big topics. It's amazing that it puts these two aspects together so well. I'm with you, Marian, on having something to watch with the kid(s), though; it's nice when you enjoy the same things.

My teenage son thinks the show and his mother are weird, but I have always loved musicals. <br /><br />www.whimsywritingandrunning.weebly.comAngela Scotthttp://www.whimsywritingandrunning.weebly.comnoreply@blogger.com
