Yeah. Not their best episodes so far. Felt little stalled.


Needs more Sue.
This, but also had too much of Shue's wife and her sister.[/QUOTE]

we hates them, my precious...[/QUOTE]

I hate them as well, but I actually find they funny.

"Are you are exorcist?"

I liked Imagine, but yeah, this episode was very offensive to deaf people in general. :([/QUOTE]

Eh, kind of. Considering this show has made fun of many people I don't think the poking fun at the guy who was merely hard of hearing was offensive anymore than they usual heavy drinking intolerant christian dad was offensive to christians or heavy drinkers or intolerant people or the stereotypical gay guy who LOVES to do makeovers for that matter. The PC crowd needs to take a chill pill and laugh every now and then.

You know.... there I think about it... I think this episode was "recicled", I mean, he was a discarded idea that they had for a earlier episode, and decide to use now, I mean, most things about Rachel would surely work better earlier, and the same thing for the pregnancy stuff.

edit: the fact that it was a put in a holiday also helps my theory.
 
The Rachel stuff I totally agree with.
Although I have to say, the "she dresses like a cross between a grandma and a toddler" was... AMAZING.

Even so, it is hard to believe that she dress that bad, specially with that suit that they made her wear, you could tell from distance that Lea Michelle herself din't believe it either.
 
Of course. She's the "ugly" girl who isn't ugly.
She is not a blue-eyed blond, she is hideous. She should thank god for not having to wear glasses, that would make her monstruous.[/QUOTE]

Have you seen "Not another teen movie"? I'm not advocating watching it, it's horrible, but there is a scene towards the beginning that pretty much sums that up.:D

I only have seen the few bits of its, monstly towards the end, but I know what you are talking about, and I agree, they should hire albino hunchback to play Rachel and fire that ugly lea.

I actually liked Not another Teen Movie. Compared to most movies of it's ilk, it was actually funny.
going a little bit off-topic, but I actually liked the Super-hero Movie, honestly, it was more of a super-hero movie than Spiderman 3 and x-men 3 was u.u

I thought that was a hilarious line, but I just didn't think it was true. The only part of her outfits that I had noticed was that she had a tendency to wear short, short skirts (hell YEA I noticed that) which isn't exactly grandma or toddler wear.
 
It's miles better than most of those kinds of movies and I enjoyed it for what it was. It's much more satirical than the other "not another" type of movies.

Are you talking about Super-hero movie or Another Teen Movie?[/QUOTE]

I think Not Another Teen Movie is way better than pretty much any of the other films similar to it in recent years. It actually has some mildly clever moments in it and made me laugh.
 
Oh, look, the deaf kids are ruining the song, let's join in and, even though they can't hear it at all, show them how it's actually sung!

I'm also weary of shows and movies using Imagine like the catch-all anthem for random feel-good purposes... imagine is an anti-religion, anti-patriotic..hell.. anti-COUNTRIES song. Lennon wants there to be NO COUNTRIES and NO RELIGION. Not just one country and one religion, NONE. No America, no church, nothing. Yet they still use it at, like.. political rallies and shit? Ugh.

I think you missed the point... I at least understood that the song was about breaking barriers that divide people, barriers that can be political or cultural. Also the bit about "no heaven" and "no hell" can be understood as no need to devide people between good or bad, but because we wouldn't need it, we wouldn't need countries, religion or anything, merely because the union would mean that we don't need to worry about those things, I also understood the "no heaven" bit as meaning that we wouldn't need to dream about heaven because Earth would be a paradise, or a heaven itself.

>.<

LOL. Yeah, I kinda took it that way too. I'm sure thats not what they wanted but it kinda came off that way.

Also, in your daily infuriation of Calleja: I think Imagine is probably just about the worst song ever written. And if I never heard it again I would be thrilled in so many ways. :p

No, I'm sorry G_L, Lennon has gone on record as he being literally anti-religion and anti-countries. He speaks of a world where the human race can live as just the human race, like a sci-fi planet or something. No countries whatsoever, no religion, no borders dividing the world.

IT'S PLAIN AS DAY IN THE LYRICS, DAMMIT

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too

He was ALWAYS against the idea of people having to die for something. See? No religion too.

Okay, let rephrase the question: How exactly was Lennon Anti-countries? What did he had agaisnt them? What reasons made him put "no countries" in that song? It is because he hates authority in general or because he see countries as a way to dividing people?

Both. It's the ultimate socialist hippie ideal. It all works great in theory, but in practice, humans are stupid selfish animals and it will never really work.

Yeap. A perfect world wouldn't need to have countries, but a perfect world wouldn't have flawed humans either. I actually believe that a state of actual utopia will only happen with heavy genetic engenering (to modify social behavior). =p
 
Like I said, Lennon was talking of a hippie utopia where Earth becomes a Sci-Fi planet of sorts, where the whole human race shares the planet and doesn't divide it in countries.

That's what I meant with "anti-countries".

In order for us to destroy the alien hordes I assume? Now THAT'S a Beatles track I want to hear.
 
haha - I was just waiting for the pregnancy shoe to drop. And now Sue is on cloud nine with glee club ending. Woo!

The songs that have been sung so far have been enjoyable enough, but not spectacular. Still got a few minutes left in the show, though. Sounds like he's losing everything.
