Last week I decided to break up with Glee. It's just so fucking terrible and their botching of the Santana story-line is basically unforgiveable. But I forgot to delete it from my DVR, so I have last night's episode sitting there and I'm trying to decide if I should delete it without watching it. It's hard for me to do. I'm a complete-ist and can't stand to stop watching a show before it ends. I still watch The Simpsons for crying out loud, and that hasn't been very good for at least a decade! (Though it manages to be juuuust good enough to keep me coming back.)
But Glee. Christ. I was going to do this whole post about all the things that Glee has done wrong and how the fuck does a show that showed such promise turn into such shit so quickly????? But then I thought I'd do one better and just refer you guys to the reviews of Todd VanDerWerff at the AV Club. His assessments of Glee are absolutely brilliant, and he basically says every single thing I want to say about the show, but lack the talent to do so.
So if you're still watching Glee, and have been trying to cut the cord like I have (and, really. Why wouldn't you?) Check out the Glee reviews at the AV Club. This is the link to this week's episode, which is by far one of the funniest pop-culture reviews I've ever read. But you can go back through the archives and read some of his earlier reviews.
