Brains! Brains! Brains!

No, I did not turn into a zombie. Even though I have been kind of absent this long. (Blogging trailers is not a lot of work or creative output, now is it?)

And what did I do in those weeks - or months? Well, lots. And little. But I did watch the first 10 episodes of Glee's second season on DVD. And I loved it. I also could not stop myself from watching the 11th episodes - Zombies at the Football Championship Game Night.

Well, okay, that is not the title. But watching it prompted me to post about Glee.

For a while I was not able to really watch it. I was not in the mood. Glee's first season and its music was something that brightened my mood last year. It made me kinda giggly. And for some reason the last few month that was not what I wanted.
Suddenly now I found myself to be in the right mood.

I also wonder about all the negative comments about the second season. About character assassination. And stupid moves of plot and development.
I really have to wonder because I could not really find fault with any of it. Glee is really demanding a lot of suspense of disbelief and yet being a bit over the top it still manages to be funny, tragic, artistic and simply: good.

I love Bieste, the new coach. I still like Emma, even though Will seems to have a bit of a midlife crisis. I think his ex-wife is even better now than before their divorce. And I also still like Rachel. And Finn. And I thought Sam an Quinn were cute. And I even think Brittany and Artie work. That's a big one since my new favourite is Santana.

Anything else to add? Nothing apart from: please watch. It's worth the time.
Oh, and I loved the fact that they decided to spotlight other singers at the Regionals. Great.

Now I have ot await the next DVD set. Or not. ;o)
