Weekly Gleek Report – “Blame it on the A-A-A-A-A-Alcohol”
Underage drinking is bad. Right? Well, according to this week’s Glee…maybe not so much. Tonight Glee’s “very special” episode took its turn at the time honored tradition of dedicating itself to the epidemic of teen drinking. Roseanne did it, The Cosby Show did it and Growing Pains did it. Glee kind of side stepped the […]
Weekly Gleek Report – “Comebacks”
Tonight’s Bieber-licious episode of Glee was sadly lacking in several areas. The fact that they included two Justin Bieber songs didn’t help. The title of tonight’s episode, “Comeback” seemed fitting as Glee came back to the poor plot devices and fragmented story lines that nearly defined the first half of this season. Somewhere in the […]
Superbowl Special: Gleek Report “The Sue Sylvester Bowl Shuffle”
If there was any doubt that Glee deserved its three Golden Globes this year, the Superbowl episode promptly removed it. In its first episode back since early December, Glee capitalized on the biggest sporting/marketing event of the year by integrating football into its enormously popular formula. It even utilized the time honored tradition of beginning […]
Bruno Mars Pleads Guilty to Cocaine Charge
So, what do you do when you are currently one of the recording industry’s hottest artist? Well, lots of blow of course! Bruno Mars, aka Peter Hernandez (I can see why he changed his name..) was arrested in Las Vegas last September at the Hard Rock hotel after an attended alerted security to the singer […]
What Can Viewers Expect When “Glee” Returns?
I didn’t love the first half of the second season of Glee. I thought they focused too much on the music, and not enough on the characters and developing their stories. The later episodes got better at this. I just feel like there should be four or five songs at the most in each episode. […]
Country Strong
Let me first start by saying that I do not like country music. So this will review will not include me critiqueing the music in the film which in actuality will play a large role in whether you enjoy the movie or not. It is just not my style. As a result, I went into […]
“Glee” Star Wanted to Headline “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” Reboot
I would take this bit of news as strictly rumor. I am sure many of you have heard by now that Warner Bros. is getting ready to reboot Buffy the Vampire Slayer into a successful film franchise. Unfortunately, they are not doing this with Buffy series creator Joss Whedon. I am kind of torn on […]
New “I Am Number Four” HD Trailer Starring Dianna Agron, Timothy Olyphant, and Alex Pettyfer
I have to admit, despite not having any real starpower behind it. The marketing campaign behind I Am Number Four is working on me. The actors I do know, Dianna Agron, Timothy Olyphant, and Teresa Palmer have impressed me with sections of their previous work. Alex Pettyfer might look like he belongs on The OC, […]
Weekly Gleek Report – “Special Education” (Sectionals)
The Glee kids were off to sectionals this week, but not before learning a valuable lesson about team spirit…a lesson that took about three quarters of the episode for the kids to learn. The episode starts with Mr. Schue discussing the upcoming Sectionals competition with colleague and love interest Emma Pillsbury. She inspires him to […]
Weekly Gleek Report – “Furt” w/ Guest Star Carol Burnett
Answer: Underwhelming. Question: What word best describes tonight’s episode of Glee? Tonight Glee had so much going for it…two weddings, a hefty dose of time with Sue, a decent message about bullying and Carol-freaking-Burnett and yet it was the worst possible thing any piece of entertainment can be…boring. Allow me to set the stage with […]
