GLEE Review

This is a follow-up to my May 20th blog.
I don't watch programs about idols, dancers, or bachelorettes. I do watch programs about education. This is how I happened to watch Glee, a show about a teacher trying to revitalize a high school glee club. As you have already guessed, he was once a member of a glee club.
On the following Saturday the CS-T had a review on Glee. Here it is:
"Glee gets what's funny about high school.
The only problem with Glee, Fox's new musical comedy, is that viewers will have to wait four months for the next episode.
........... is the first show in a long time that's just plain full-throttle, no guilty-pleasure-rationalization-necessary fun." The review goes on for half a page but you get the main idea.
The reviewer liked it for the same reasons I did-the music, the dance, the relationships between characters. Funny-it's a show with an actual plot which combines "idols," "dancers," and "bachelors and bachelorettes" into one program. FWIW Glee finished 14th in the ratings that week-well behind "idols, etc."
