The 2011-2012 television season has been over for almost a couple of weeks now, which means a sufficient amount of time has passed and we are primed to reflect. Over the next handful of days, I will be producing some pieces and lists looking back on the season that was. I missed out on a … Continue reading 2011-2012 season wrap: Ranking the episodes of Glee’s third season

Review: Glee, “On My Way”
Watching and writing about television is a pretty painless experience in the grand scheme of things. But disregarding the world’s real problems for a moment, watching and writing about Glee can be fairly traumatic, you guys. Every time I think the series has lost its way for good, it pulls me back in with a … Continue reading Review: Glee, “On My Way”
Review: Glee, “Hold on to Sixteen”
At this point, there are so many problems with Glee that is much easier to just say “it sucks!” and move on. Fortunately (or more likely, unfortunately) for you folks, I am much more verbose than that, and I am also so intrigued by the reasons that Glee has so many problems that I cannot … Continue reading Review: Glee, “Hold on to Sixteen”
Review: Glee, “I Kissed A Girl”
Despite all its issues, Glee has had a lot of success with exploring the challenges of being gay. I have some issues with how and why Kurt jumped to Dalton last year, but the only good part of season two was his season-long journey to coming out and self-acceptance. The series took Kurt’s challenges and … Continue reading Review: Glee, “I Kissed A Girl”
Review: Glee, “Mash Off”

One of the biggest problems with season two was its wild inconsistency, not across episodes, but within … Continue reading Review: Glee, “Mash Off”
Review: Glee, “The First Time”
When I read sometime last month that Glee would be doing an episode centered on Rachel and Kurt losing their respective virginities, I shuddered. A few times. Even though this season of Glee has been relatively solid (let’s just pretend last week’s episode never, ever happened OK?), I am always worried when the series decides … Continue reading Review: Glee, “The First Time”
Review: Glee, “Pot O’Gold”
Well, I guess there was no way that could last. It’s been a while, but when the first three episodes of Glee’s third season aired nine months ago, it was somewhat staggering that all of them were pretty solid, with the last aired episode “Asian F” being one of my favorites in a very long … Continue reading Review: Glee, “Pot O’Gold”
Musings on The Glee Project from someone who just started watching The Glee Project
I watched the first few minutes of the initial episode of The Glee Project and then realized I didn't really care that much. Fast forward a handful of weeks later, throw in the accessibility of multiple episodes OnDemand and a girlfriend who didn't want to watch some of the scripted series I'd hoped she would … Continue reading Musings on The Glee Project from someone who just started watching The Glee Project
