Hey everyone – welcome back to Glee!  It seems that Ryan Murphy has decided to start every episode with someone walking down the hall talking to themselves.  This week, it is Blaine!

What do you mean bow ties aren’t in fashion?

 Blaine has decided that this is going to be his year – which means that he is going to sign up for every club/activity that is out there.  This is also the perfect opportunity for his rendition of ‘Everybody Wants to Rule the World’.  I personally think that step one should be losing the bow-tie and buying pants that go all the way to his ankles.  Blaine’s final sign-up:  Class President.  Somewhere, Brittany’s mind is exploding.

 Over in New York, where there is no glee club but yet it is featured on this show, Kurt is having his internship interview at Vogue.com.  The infamous Isabel, who is a fashion icon, is none other than Sarah Jessica Parker.  She makes the understatement of the world by commenting on Kurt’s bold clothing choices.  Because of his fashion sense, he lands the internship.

 Back at McKinley, Brittany wants Artie to be her Vice President.  She thinks that Artie will help her because he is part robot.  Oh, Brittany.  He finally agrees to run with her once she promises to let him make all of the decisions.

 It’s time to head to the choir room, where they are actually having glee club!  On a side note – when I was in school, clubs met after school.  Is that different now?  It seems like they are always meeting at random times throughout the day.  Can they all have the same study hall or something?  I’m so confused.  Anyway, Will tells them that because they won Nationals, they will be hosting the annual show choir rules committee.  Is this even a real thing?  How hard is it to make up rules for show choir that you need to appoint a committee?  Even though this is life-altering news, Jake interrupts to ask when they are going to start preparing for the next show choir event.  Will has a mini-internal breakdown because he is out of ideas for themes.  Come on – after Brittany 2.0, you can’t try for GaGa 2.0?  Because they are all oblivious to Will’s pain, Brittany randomly tells everyone that Artie is going to be her running mate.

 Will is in the teacher’s lounge still trying to come up with ideas when Sue walks in.  Will is evidently clueless because he asks Sue for help.  What on earth would make him think that she would give him halfway decent advice?  Sue explains to him that he has reached the tedium of day to day teaching and that in four years he will either be an alcoholic, morbidly obese, or both.  She does tell him that with his complete lack of adult friends, he would make a good pedophile birthday clown.  Kind of harsh, but really, what did he expect?

    Anna Wintour is the editor-in-chief of Vogue, so she’s pretty darn important ;)

    I suspect that this might be Glee’s last season. I LOVED this show at first but now, sadly, it’s lost a lot of the things that made it good.

    I agree Pari– I was such a fan–but its not holding my attention at all anymore. I think its too many places and storylines.

    And SJP–shuddering–not aging well and why is she on the show?? SHe was on Broadway but is no Audra MacDonald, Patty Lupone or Lea Salonga.

    I just want Karofsky to move to New York, find Kurt and start a torrid love affair . . . that will make me want to watch, otherwise, I barely focus on these episodes.

    I really do hope GoodytwoShues goes away . . . they have nothing left for him to do.

    They really should have considered a spin off . . .

    I’d never realized what an awful actress SJP was before. Maybe her thing worked when she was younger.

    And yeah, they really need to decide what this show is about. The New York stuff isn’t cutting it. They really should have thought about making a second show about the NYC school and the other students.

    Meanwhile, the old school’s cast just don’t have the star power of the original cast. That Blaine guy is as exciting to watch as Lawrence Welk.

    SJP looks awful. Oh My Gosh she is too skinny! I can’t believe she’s my age.
    From now on everytime I think I need to lose weight I will pull up a picture of her go and eat a sandwich.

    So Brody who is the hottest guy in school goes after Rachel.
    Uh huh.
    But it gets better! He’s going to WAIT for her to come around to seeing him as more than a friend (which took a whole what 36 hours?)

    Rachel is sooooo going to end up getting pregnant by this smooth operator.
    Then she gives the baby to Kurt and Karofsky to raise in Lima.

    Thanks for the tip, Crissy . . . was it just the one, or do you think he’ll be back. I’m sure he wasn’t kissing anyone in the locker room . . . heh!

    Just wanted to mention that the song “Make Me Over” is actually called Celebrity Skin by Hole
