Watch It, Rae! Tv reviews for the critically minded.

With the title being ‘All or nothing’ it was ironic that something in the middle was delivered. I mean – we had our surprise wedding, unmasking of ‘katie xoxo’ and the New Directions winning regionals; yet still it lacked closure – opening up new cans of worms until next fall. Why do you do this to us Glee?     Lets start with Rachel’s audition – The episode literally had just started and we had Rachel about to sing her beautiful little heart out, no build up, no anything. She signed herself in, introduced herself and nailed Celine Dion’s “To

This week on a Stevie Wonder themed Glee we have the return of Mercedes, Mike and Kurt. We also find out about Burt’s results and Cassandra reveals her true colours. Amongst all this going on there are still loose ends that need tightening. Let’s start with Kitty and Artie. With only one episode left we keep getting these constant flirty moments: are they actually going to go anywhere and will they finally get together or do something of the sort. Kitty helped Artie accept his offer to Brooklyn Film School by being a sneak of the week and telling his

This week in Glee we are welcomed back to New York to follow the lives of Rachel, Kurt and Santana. As well as being introduced to Sue’s new career and still no luck in unmasking Ryder’s dream girl. The episode starts off with Ryder messaging little miss Catfish and he asks her why she’s afraid to meet up; in which she replied, “idk”. Gotta love their deep emotional conversations that makes Ryder want her so bad! Personally, I think they’re dragging this out way too long and it’s stopping Ryder getting closer to anybody else cough kitty cough! (We’ll get

After last weeks episode focusing on such a heavy, serious topic this weeks episode feels a tonne lighter. The New Directions are back and although they’re all affected by the fake shooting Mr Schue is adamant in choosing the set list for regionals. In my opinion, Mr Schue isn’t really himself and is quite harsh on the kids. He rejects Marley’s original songs without even hearing her out and insults Unique’s breasts, Sam’s false twin and Tina’s dress sense. Wow Mr Schue you need to slow down. I wasn’t really a fan of this weeks episode mainly because, to me,

First and foremost well done Glee (Ryan Murphy and Matthew Hodgson)! With the episode being titled ‘Shooting Star’ with the raw topics it included I was scared it was going to be handled all wrong. In my opinion I feel it was executed perfectly. What I enjoyed most is how natural it felt and was played out. The first twenty minutes or so was typical Glee; with the New Direction rehearsing for Regionals, a “Lord Tubbington Meteor” on its way for Lima, Sam feeling slightly jealous of Brittany and her cats relationship and Becky worrying about graduating. All seems well

Okay I don’t really know what has happened but Glee has taken a turn for the best in the second half of it’s season. I take my hat of to you Glee, for delivering a solid and completely enjoyable episode. It stayed true to it’s theme and the story-line kept in linear formation *round of applause*. Maybe Mr Schue should be off ill more often. I think the question on everybody’s lips after watching the promo was whether the writers of Glee were going to mess up the straight/gay bromance and turn it creepy. Thankfully they didn’t, they kept the

Okay other than the lack of Brittany and the fact that Blaine’s a top; all the tension within the Glee Club finally erupts into feuds galore! Round one: Will vs Finn First up we have the 30 something year old teacher against the 18 year old confused ex student. The fuel behind this feud is a kiss planted on Will’s wife-to-be by Finn to calm her down. After finding out about the kiss Will turns into a green eyed teen, hell bent on making Finn’s life a misery. What annoyed me the most about Will’s lash out speech was him

Okay so here it is, the 500th musical number on Glee. The movie driven episode kicks off all Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers like to “You’re All the World to Me”. Yes, he’s still Emma-less and it’s just a dream so let let him enjoy his vivid imagination. Will admits to watching a lot of old movies with his free time [moping around time] which inspires the theme for the Glee Club. Will does what Will does best and suggests a mash-up competition boys vs. girls, with the prize being a role in Artie’s independent movie! Yay.   Thankfully, Brittany

With a Valentines day themed episode sparks are bound to fly or should we say half a dozen of cupids arrows. Finally a holiday-themed episode of Glee that actually had relevance to the shows plot. 10 points. With the whole of Mckinley’s alumni back in town (minus Mike Chang and some other glee members) it was like the good ol’ days back. Obviously as they’re all older now, a steamier, more sultry serving of valentines day needs to be served. *BEST SERVED HOT* Source: Fox As the episode was predominantly meant to be about Emma and Wills’s wedding i’ll start

With an episode being titled ‘Diva’ we are to expect tantrums, titivations and tiffs. Surprisingly, Glee delivered a much more emotional serving rather than the expected flavours of bitchy, cold and ruthlessness. The New Directions are back in the running for regionals and Finn is struggling to find ways to bring out the inner fighters from the new glee club. ONE WAY: A DIVA OFF! The glee club is thrilled by their new assignment with Unique thinking she’s the epitome of diva and Blaine Anderson adamant in proving that boys can be divas too. It all kicks off with a perfect
