    Still the most positive, fun show on TV. Yes it can be silly and have plot holes bigger than the grand canyon, but its means a break from all the reality and crime shows. The music is great, sometimes the Glee versions are superior.

    Glee came back but with hugh difference, instead of continuing with his hilarious pop plots, the writers decided to return to Glee's roots! More Brodway than Britney, more drama than sit-com, glee reflects conflicts of adolescents with humor and maturity without falling into absurdity.

    The first season of Glee was phenomenal - the first show I had found that represented many walks of life in a positive, creative light. It had drama and humor in all the right places - exquisite plot points; essentially every episode left with me wanting more.

It had drama and humor in all the right places - exquisite plot points; essentially every episode left with me wanting more. The second season was really no different, coming into parodies of different other musical performances was entertaining and highly enjoyable. However, this third season started out well, but I am afraid has more or less fallen on a flat note.
    Basically, the third season, so far, has included drama centering around characters we know little to nothing about, Sugar, the Irish kid, and that black football player guy. Does anyone care about these characters? Oh, it's so sad that the Irish kid is picked on, and now he's being deported. Honestly, he said he'd been home sick in the first episode he was in, and then, a few episodes later, with no further character development, all of a sudden the Glee club is his home away from home, and he doesn't want to leave. There was an entire episode centered around who Sugar would date for Valentine's Day, which is just boring and superfluous. And Mercedes is 'torn' between this black guy we know nothing or care nothing about, and Sam who we know and love. There is no character development on these newer characters, and the drama is centering largely around them, and then some other stupid plot points around some of the better known characters. And what's with the sudden wardrobe changes for everybody? We all know these actors are not teenagers, but in the first and second seasons, they at least dressed like teenagers - now they look their age, which is late twenties and sometimes early thirties... why? Quinn looks like she's 27...
    In other words, huge Gleek here, but the only episodes I have liked in this season have been the Michael episode (though whether this is due to content or the theme of the episode I am not sure) and the finale, with Karofsky and Quinn both in danger - because honestly, I care about them finally, not about the Irish kid (since I can't even come up with his name, Rory is it?) and Sugar (an annoying girl who can't sing but is in the Glee club because her father has money?)

    I never really cared for this show before. I always judged it negatively without even watching it, but one day about 2 months ago i saw the first season on netflix so i decided to watch it. I was a gleek from the first 10 minutes. I love this show! Its hilarious and dramatic at the same time. I hate Sue Sylvester yet i love her at the same time because she is drop-dead funny.

The first season was awesome, then the second season was even more awersome, and so far the third season is just as awesome. I love Glee, and im an 18 year old guy, you should give this show a chance. Its definitely worth an hour of your tuesday night. 10/10 definitely! Expand

    Glee season 3 has been off to a good start, living true to its promise of 'back to basics' with the characters we've grown fond of for the last two seasons. The song covers are as brilliant as ever, which probably majority would be appealing to Broadway fans, but it still caters to folks with an ear for both retro and latest music.

The song covers are as brilliant as ever, which probably majority would be appealing to Broadway fans, but it still caters to folks with an ear for both retro and latest music. Nonetheless, I look forward to more of the creative mash-ups coming soon. And the growth of a new glee club has put new dimension to the idea of show choir competition as New Directions take on another journey towards the very much coveted Nationals win. And all this right in the middle of high school dilemmas ranging from high school political race, musical auditions and very interesting relationship developments among the Glee Club members. A very must-see season for every Gleeks at heart! Expand

    I'm a musician and I hate it when pop-music becomes bland and auto-tuned, and I hate most television. In addition, season 2 of Glee had me turned off of the series completely. Wow. Did season 3 ever change everything for me. With a socially conscious storyline, interesting characters and a finger on the pulse of the national zeitgeist, Glee has come into it's own.

Wow. Did season 3 ever change everything for me. With a socially conscious storyline, interesting characters and a finger on the pulse of the national zeitgeist, Glee has come into it's own. This is the best show I've seen in years, and has finally matured into an excellent series. Not one episode has disappointed me this year, and I feel like the music has gotten better in the choices they make and the method of performing, (the "auto-tuning" I thought I heard in the first and a bit of the second season seems totally absent now, but maybe I was hearing things in the first place). The mid-season finale was superb and completely shocking. I can't wait for more. Expand

    Glee is finally back to what made this show really popular and good! The show is back with really good storylines, continuity, great acting and less music to concentrate on the storylines! :D

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "Glee club is trying to recruit and no one is interested!" and "Sue is trying to destroy the arts are just the repeated plot for the show. Come on, it is already season 3. it should have been taken to a new heights considering some of them are leaving the show this season. the writers could have done more with the show. it would have been great to see the club being successful and tackling bigger issue other than the sue sylvester and no people joining the club. i love the show back then but if the show keep on being like this, my interest will just sink bit by bit until zero left.

    The problem with Glee is that its always been overrated. However, its has also always been very good, however, the first season was outstanding and I could never have imagined myself feeling like giving up on the series. Funnily enough I still haven't.. I keep hoping it will get better. Its still funny, but now bordering on ridiculous. It's become a shadow of what it used to be. It stillThe problem with Glee is that its always been overrated.

I keep hoping it will get better. Its still funny, but now bordering on ridiculous. It's become a shadow of what it used to be. It still maintains its great humour and light-heartedness, but it has gotten the point where its now saccharine sweet and somewhat gimmicky. There is no need to be specific on what has changed, many can see what it is. Expand

    Let's face it, Glee has become a phenomenon. Not only does it have many fans who love it, Glee seems to have just as many folks who despise the show's popularity. Whether or not you agree that Glee deserves the praise it gets (I most certainly think it does), no one can deny that Ryan Murphy has created something that will be remembered for years to come.

    Better than the season 2, not as good as the first one. Teens problems are worse now, and acting is just amazing. Music is having another purpose in the story and I like that. The way they decided to talk about hard things like losing the virginity, even if you are straight or not, and things like a teacher having sex with her student are just.... wow.
