Review of Glee

Glee (2009–2015)
3/10
Short moments of 'okay' lost in a sea of something terrible
14 October 2013
At the time of writing this review, I have seen seasons 1 and 2, and some of season 3. I think I can review this now. My main problem with the show is the clichés that the fans refer to as characters. You've got your typical jocks, cheerleaders, the nice teacher who understands the students, the social outcasts, the fat girl, the comic relief and the obligatory gay and/or disabled people so the fans can feel like they're 'accepting' of anything. I will admit though, one or two of the actors manage to bring something special to their roles. The story is boring and has been done before dozens of times, not to mention unrealistic. A girl releases a sex tape, and she doesn't get into trouble? I call bullsh*t. If I had to say one good thing about the series, it would be the character of Sue, the borderline psychotic gym teacher/principal. Every time she's on screen, I laugh a little bit. Overall score: 3/10
