Thanks Craig!

My brain isn't functioning too well at the moment, so, let me try to find the time.

[A Flawed Fashion]

No idea how long until the episode airs...

Yay Glee!

[Radames125470]

Cant wait for WEMMA and the mash ups!

Any predictions on who wins. Boys vs Girls?

I think it will end with Will stating it as just a way so they could be competitive announcing it a tie.

[KryptonSite]

11 hours until it airs here on the West Coast.

Who's planning on being here for the live discussion?

[obsessedwithsv]

I want to be here but damn being English!! I'm jealous of all of you who get to watch it tonight.

[Radames125470]

Only over 2 hours till GLEE!!!

[Iluvgreen]

Only and hour and 4 minutes left.

[WhamBamThankUSam]

Watching it right now, Sue is great!

[A Flawed Fashion]

Looks like I'll miss out on the live discussion this week. I just got home and it is already 13 minutes after eight. Oh well, I'll watch on Hulu tomorrow. :)

[davidbrenton]

LOL. She gave him a major ingredient in Crystal Meth.

[obsessedwithsv]

How much is Sue featuring?

[davidbrenton]

How much is Sue featuring?

Biggest run in beginning of ep. Not since then at 30 min mark.

----- Added 21 Minutes later -----

I'll just keep talking then...

I feel bad for Emma. But, how stupid is she to even seriously consider Ken's proposal?

----- Added 24 Minutes later -----

LOL! Emma is sooo funny!

----- Added 31 Minutes later -----

I miss the music filled episodes. (All 2 of them).

It wasn't too great. :(

But, it wasn't bad.

[Radames125470]

The look Wemma gave each other at the end was very sad, my gf was crying. She hates when OTP's have angst, but thats what makes us root for them.

SUE IS AMAZING, NEXT WEEK, GET HERE PLEASE!

[Shadowlord367]

This was one of my more favored episodes.

The mashups were really interesting. And the Vitamin D thing was hilarious.

Could Teri BE any more self-centered? Or stupid for that matter? Props to the actress though, shes great. The casting on this show is top notch.

Next week looks interesting.

[Iluvgreen]

The episode was pretty cool. I mean, I wanted more music, but we got two songs. I'm mad that Emma said yes, but she's so funny. :lol: Poor Will. :( His wife is getting on my last nerve! :mad:

[warriorrenegade]

This was a pretty good episode. I'd rate it a 8/10. Loved the boy's dance number. The expressions on Finns face were funny and those dance moves by those 2 other glee kids were very cool. Though the girls song mashup didn't work for me. It was just weird to hear "Halo and Walking on Sunshine" together...just weird.

Also I can't believe that Emma/Ken are getting married? WTH! No two people can be that lonely and desperate. I'm sure this is just some sort of wave created by the writers to make the viewers pine for Will and Emma to hook up sooner, not that I wouldn't mind. But to have those two marry? Come on.

Sue ruled yet again. It was extremely funny to hear her rant about what she was seeing between Will/Emma. Next week can't come soon enough...that one looks to be a Sue centric episode.

[Novak Fan]

Craig, I'm gonna add the poll if that's ok :)

[Iluvgreen]

that one looks to be a Sue centric episode.

I know. It looks awsome.

[davidbrenton]

"It can be a secret....like a secret wedding."

That accent she does is so great too. I forget not to take that for granted.

----- Added 1 Minutes later -----

I love Finn's crazy eyes when he does "it's my life".

Finn and Quinn, lol. I just got it! It rhymes!

People who are inclined not to like Terri, will pretty much hate her after this episode. I'm pretty sure.

(I just hope there's a "love 2" before the hate....time will tell. It's up to the actress....she won me over though)

[KryptonSite]

Craig, I'm gonna add the poll if that's ok :)

Always ok :)

I need to figure out how to edit videos... I'd love to have Sue Sylvester's journal narrating over footage of Elena's vampire diaries...

Or at least that's what I was thinking while I was watching.

[Violet-Shadow]

WHY on earth would Terri give him pseudofederin (if that's how you spell it)??? That's terrible...and awful... One time I took that stuff and it made me feel like I could barely stand and my heart was beating 100x a second. Terri seems pretty stupid. Loved the boys mashup ...that one guy can dance! I believe his name is Mike Chang.

I like that Quinn and Rachel are forming a friendship. It's sweet. And I feel bad for Ken. I think he truly cares about Emma and it just sucks that she's in love with someone else. Ken is really a good guy. And his proposal promise was really sweet! I wish she did love him so that they could be together, happy together.

Aw, poor Quinn...her lines in that scene made me want to cry. I feel so bad for her. Wow, Terri is selfish. I still like her but ugh. What the crap - Emma doesn't want to spend the rest of her life alone yet that's exactly what she's planning on doing by this secret marriage to Ken. ...Sue?!?! As co-director? Holy cow! This should be very interesting.

Pretty good episode, but only two songs, though they were great, almost equal to "Don't Stop Believing." I give it 8/10.

[Kevin24]

Pretty good epsiode tonight. I can't believe Sue is going to be co-whatever with Will. I really loved their energetic performances.

[davidbrenton]

Directing in music scenes could have been A LOT better.

It was a real mess tonight.

----- Added 15 Minutes later -----

I was really hoping 4 a will/emma song at the end (Even fantasy).

[Clarkgirl8]

Oh, the vitamin D stuff was jusrt wrong, hatin' Terri so much right now. The dances were really funny though. I still think it needed more songs!!!

I feel so so bad for Ken, poor little guy really loves Emma. I almost cried when she said yes. But then again I almost cried when Emma told Will, those two are just <3

and Sue!! OMG! next episode will be awesome.

[bonoferox]

I liked it a lot. The rednition of "It's my Life" was very well done.

[chole_fan]

Thought it was pretty good tonight. Love, love Sue...:lol: She gets the best lines!

Okay...really not liking Terri now. WTH was she thinking giving those kids pseudophedrine?? That was just plain stupid. I am really not liking the fake pregnancy storyline either...hope it comes to a conclusion soon. I am really starting to like Quinn and would love to see her come clean about Terri's plan.

Emma cracks me up...can't believe she said yes :eek: Even if it will be a "secret marriage". I do feel sorry for Ken though, he really has feelings for her I think.

Overall good episode. I am really enjoying this show!

[Aye-Aye Sailor]

Loved the boy's dance number. The expressions on Finns face were funny and those dance moves by those 2 other glee kids were very cool. Though the girls song mashup didn't work for me. It was just weird to hear "Halo and Walking on Sunshine" together...just weird.
I agree! The guys' number was so much better than the girls'! Especially because 2 different guys sang those songs, while Rachel did all the singing in the girls' number '-.-
I was kinda hoping that Halo would have been sung by Mercedes! I mean, isn't she the new Beyoncè?! LOL So yeah, 2 thumbs up for the guys and a booooh to Rachel for stealing everybody's thunder! :(

Also I can't believe that Emma/Ken are getting married? WTH! No two people can be that lonely and desperate. I'm sure this is just some sort of wave created by the writers to make the viewers pine for Will and Emma to hook up sooner, not that I wouldn't mind. But to have those two marry? Come on.
Tell me about it! At the end, I was expecting Will to tell her to run away with him and forget she just said yes to Ken! LOL
But seriously, those two need to have a looong talk and Will needs to break up with his wife 'cause she's so irritating! I can't even understand how he could have dated her in the first place!

I am really not liking the fake pregnancy storyline either...hope it comes to a conclusion soon.
Me too! I mean, doesn't Will notice that his wife is wearing that thing to help her fake the pregnancy?! o.O That guy needs to open his eyes!

And awww, I love Sue! I wanna read her journal like right now!!! LOL
I can only wonder all the mean things she wrote there!! I'd pay to read what she wrote about Emma! LOL she's always saying all those mean things to her (like the thing about her shirt! that was hilarious!) but I can't help her but love her even more! eheheh. and I wonder what she's gonna do now that she has the chance to destroy the Glee Club herself from within... go evil Sue!! LOL

[Violet-Shadow]

I was kinda hoping that Halo would have been sung by Mercedes! I mean, isn't she the new Beyoncè?! LOL So yeah, 2 thumbs up for the guys and a booooh to Rachel for stealing everybody's thunder! :(

I noticed that too - I was thinking when "Do the other girls get a chance to sing? Or TALK even?" I know Lea Michele is the star of the show, and she's amazing, but I want to hear other people sing too.

[Novak Fan]

Agree with you guys about Rachel getting too much spotlight. Her voice is awesome but she gets the better parts on every performance. Though I have to say that she didn't annoy me that much this episode lol

For a reason I liked Quinn since the begging (maybe because Dianna Agron seems to be very sweet and all on interviews) and I liked to see a dif side of her on this episode. I'm very glad that she and Rachel are bonding now, Quinn is gonna need a friend.

As for Terri, she was plain wrong of course but I like the kind of character she's for the show...she's being a good antagonist.

Emma/Will are soooooooo damn cute. Too bad about what happened :(

And Sue's Journal? OMG!!!! :lol: I adore that woman!

and Bon Jovi!!!! :D

[obsessedwithsv]

Always ok :)

I need to figure out how to edit videos... I'd love to have Sue Sylvester's journal narrating over footage of Elena's vampire diaries...

Or at least that's what I was thinking while I was watching.

OMG, that would be epic! Leeearn! :lol:

[Novak Fan]

BTW I have saw that everybody seems to be in love with Mike Chang (the guy that got his solo dancing this episode) He's so popular now and he hasn't even said a line lol

[Violet-Shadow]

^^^ But he can break dance so he doesn't need to say a line, haha.

[ginnyfan]

This episode was very funny. Will's wife Terri did very well in the spotlight, kudos to the actress. The paralell between Terri and Quinn was really nice. I didn't feel as hokey as it has in past episodes.

I'm still shipping Will/Emma but I'm glad that Ken and Terri are still given their moments to shine. I love the sincerity of Ken's feelings but... I REALLY don't want Emma to marry him. LOL! Her acceptance was hilarious.

Finn managing his stress wasn't ever really resolved. He still seemed artificially peppy near the end. But man was he hilarious during the mash up. LOL!

I really like that Rachel is finally realizing how selfish she's been in past episodes. She's learning team work! She replaced her motivational grammy poster with a motivational reminder of sectionals.

Sue. She just keeps on getting funnier. I'm excited for next week mainly of Sue. LOL!

[CallMeClark]

This show is bottled happiness. :) Great episode again.

Will's wife was hilarious. :lol:

I think the boy's number was my personal favorite.

[Iluvgreen]

Rachel's speech before the girls' mashup is so funny! I've watched it like a million times and still laugh at it. She's way too hyper.

[Novak Fan]

Personally I liked Rachel on this episode a lot, mostly because what Britt said up there, she's learning to make team work and she was honestly concerned about Quinn. She won me with that lol

[mildmannered...]

The boys' mashup was definitely my favourite also. It far outshone the girls' number.

I have to agree with Izebel on Terri being a good antagonist. What would we talk about otherwise? (Oh, a certain person by the name of Sue Sylvester springs to mind! :) )
Yeah, Terri is a space cadet, and she is annoying, but I look forward to seeing how her situation plays out in the show. And I Hope the fake pregnancy story wraps up soon.

[smlgrl1547]

I thought this episode was great! really funny!

[Genny]

This episode was awesome! Hilarious, one of my favorites for sure.
