Glee Review

I first saw the trailer for "Glee" on the computer.  Caught my eye because I sang in high school and the music playing caught my ear.  Watched the premier episode - and I was hooked!  Loved the music, very current.  The story lines were very interesting.  Funny in a grown up way.  Laughing at the extreme characters - like Sue C. the cheer coach - funny with that edge that makes you say, I remember someone just like that!  It's that little bit of tweaking that makes this a comedy, very tongue in cheek, but also a drama in that this stuff really happens!

My only warning - this is for adults and mature teens.  Last night there was a teen pregnancy introduced.   The premier show has a teen make-out seen where Finn - the football player who likes to sing - suffers premature ejaculation. Not the stuff my 13 year old daughter needs to watch!  She saw the football players dancing to the Beyonce tune and came running into my room.  I let her watch that scene but I admonished her that this was not a show for her and that she would not be watching on a regular basis or entire shows.  There is homosexuality and infidelity as story lines.  This is stuff I can watch and laugh at but don't think that this is High School Musical on TV.  Not at all!

If you cringe when you think of high school, love music and have an mature sense of humor, this a great show!  Put the kiddies to bed and pop some corn.  This is worth watching!
