Musical Glee Episode V: The Sylvester Strikes Back - - - - - - Part 15

[Prison Mike]

I feel like if you aren't part of the glee club when you are first introduced, then you're considered a villain...

 

[spideyboy_1111]

aside from Beiste, Emma, and the parents.. yes, usually

 

[Schlosser85]

Or Blaine and Sam, who weren't members initially either....Blaine was even competition.

 

[Sawyer]

In just a matter of hours, this will all be over.

 

[Schlosser85]

Part of me is going to be sad, but the larger part of me is relieved.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

the shows bizzare.. i can be complaining about it one minute, and sobbing uncontrollably the next..

In all honesty, some people like to scapegoat Darren for the show going downhill, but he didn't write it. His absence wouldn't have changed much.

 

[JP]

He's still pretty awful at most things...



So sad I don't get to celebrate this thing finally ending tonight, as I'll be out. But I can wait to watch tomorrow!

 

[Sawyer]

In all honesty, some people like to scapegoat Darren for the show going downhill, but he didn't write it. His absence wouldn't have changed much.

The faction that feel that way are just there to balance things out with the fans who act like Darren farts cotton candy.

 

[Schlosser85]

The only thing that stood a chance of saving this show was competent new show runners who gave a **** back years ago when it mattered.

 

[Urich Leeds]

Meh.


That was meh.

 

[Sawyer]

Dat Matt appearance.

 

[Sawyer]

Oh cool, they're retconning Tina to be terrible even during the season 1 era.

 

[Sawyer]

Sue doesn't play basketball in full tracksuit? What is this nonsense?

 

[Sawyer]

That Blaine cameo was unnecessary as ****.

 

[Prison Mike]

I thought the 2009 episode was pretty boring overall. The only part worth a damn was the last 5 minutes and that was taken from the pilot.

 

[Schlosser85]

Wasn't feeling it.

 

[Sawyer]

That Becky/Sue scene was kind of sweet, even if they are both dead to me...

 

[Sawyer]

I thought the 2009 episode was pretty boring overall. The only part worth a damn was the last 5 minutes and that was taken from the pilot.

The first hour was kind of nice and not bad, but unnecessary. Considering the show we've been dealing with for the past few seasons, I think we can put that in the win column.

The second hour was okay too, but I felt like there were too many musical numbers shoe-horned in (a weird complaint for this show, I admit, but still) and not enough character interaction. I feel like they were going for the same thing that Parks and Rec was going for, and the results were just far less successful.

Overall, it wasn't spectacular but it also wasn't a failure. I'll take it.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Well the 2009 ep was just there, the Rachel and Kurt duet was decent and I liked Tina and Artie's auditions. I admit though I got a nostalgia twinge when they showed the "Don't Stop Believing" and actually remembered what it felt like when the show was breezy, good natured fun way back in the summer I discovered season 1.

The final episode was nice enough even with Sue as the new Vice President os the US lol. They crammed everyone in bar a couple of the new kids from last season and I thought Rachel's solo was great, was that a cover or a song written for the ep? Not really feeling the song they ended on or Jesse St James involvement, but I guess the show got a decent enough send off overall.

 

[Schlosser85]

Rachel's solo was written by Darren Criss.

Things I'm happy about with the series finale:

-McKinley High becoming a performing arts school and Will becomes the Principal (does that mean that all the regular kids had to transfer to a new school if they weren't in the arts and do the other teachers lose their jobs, i.e. Coach Beiste?)

-Sam taking over New Directions and having his happy ending in Lima (shows that you don't need to move to New York to be happy and can be just as content staying in your hometown)

-Rachel winning her Tony and being Kurt and Blaine's surrogate (thought it was a nice twist from the set pictures we saw)

-Kurt and Blaine having a kid

-Mercedes, Artie, and Tina finding success in their respective fields

-Finn Hudson tribute

Things I didn't care for:

-Sue being Vice President and running for President of the U.S.

-Jesse St. James (I don't know why everyone loves him and think he and Rachel belong together. He was always a jerk IMO)

Things I didn't get:

-Why was Terri at the auditorium in the end? I get why she was brought back for the 2009 episode but what was the point at the end? I think it would have made more sense if she came in during the last song when the season 4 newbies came. I did laugh at Emma's expression when Will and Terri hugged, though.

 

[JP]

The obsession with high school that every character on this show has is so painfully pathetic. This was an hour of characters crying about leaving HS even though they left 3-4 years ago...

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

I'm proud to say that I somehow got through this show's whole run without watching a single episode.
