Okay, I admit it, I’m a Glee addict. I am so excited about the second season beginning tonight. This show combines so many fun elements, the big musical numbers, the intertwining stories of high school ambition and heartache, the delicious villain Sue Sylvester, played by Jane Lynch, who I think is one of the funniest women on the planet, and my personal favorite, Matthew Morrison. And here’s why I think my Glee gushing is remotely relevant to a Blaze post: Matthew Morrison is hot. And part of his appeal, to me, is that there’s an adorable geekiness to this high school teacher who puts his own time and money into reviving the seriously uncool Glee club. The kind of men who make a woman’s heart pound range from the pure alpha, a warrior who will sweep a woman off her feet in spite of hersel

He looks this good and he can dance and sing? Be still my heart!
f, and the more metrosexual guys who wear earrings and make cooking look sexy. Morrison is the latter kind of hero. He’ll listen when a young girl has a problem, will take on a second job as a janitor to help pay for his very unlovable wife’s whims, and will stifle his attraction to the much more lovable school guidance counselor. But, best of all, he sings.
And he dances.
And I can’t get enough of it. It’s not that I don’t mind the odd viking, CEO, hockey star, cop or other alpha hero, because they can make my heart pound too, but the older I get, the more I appreciate a lower key guy. One who will cook, and take out the trash without complaining, and sing and dance.
How about you?

I’ll admit…I’ve never seen Glee. But you just made me want to start watching.
I heart “Glee’. I just started watching it while it was on hiatus (I got the dvd set after every one of my friends was raving about it). I love it so much. I love what the actor who plays KURT said on “Oprah” last week…he said that it was loving the ‘differences’ that we all have with each other and realizing that the differences is what makes us unique.
Molly, do yourself a favor and start with the pilot. You can rent the first season now. Like Katie, I bought the whole season and watched it all in one day, cause I’m a crazy fan woman. Katie, I do think that’s one of the real charms of that show, that it celebrates differences and also shows up the rigid ways kids are forced to act to remain accepted by their peers. I actually thought the kid in a wheelchair was really in a wheelchair until I saw him interviewed. I love how they do the dance numbers with the chair. Really cute. and when the deaf choir ‘sang’ I cried. (L) Sigh. Now I want to go watch it all again before tonight!

Hhmm…I confess, I don’t even know what Glee is. Sounds like a TV show?
(Yes, I live in the dark ages, LOL. No TV reception whatsoever here.)
I have got to watch this show. I’ve been avoiding it because I spent my junior high and high school years in seriously uncool orchestra.
Sorry, Cathy, I should have been more clear. It IS a TV show. I bought the season on DVD which would be an option for you, or maybe rent the first episode and see if you like it.
Heather, you must watch Glee. It will bring back so many memories for you, I suspect. I also think the writing’s very clever which always makes me happy.

Yes, I’m a Gleek and not ashamed to admit it. I love musical theater and love getting my weekly fix. The characters are wonderful and there’s quite a few cuties in the bunch. I can’t believe how long it’s been since the last new ep and am thrilled it’s back.
I am a Glee addict too, and I can’t wait to see what is on tap for this season. Nancy, like you, I like my guys who are sorta low key too. It is like they hide their special talents and just bring them out for me.
Peace and love,
Paula R.
Hey, Paula and Jodie, Gleeks unite. I agree Paula, there’s something really sexy about the special talent he doesn’t boast about, but pulls out when appropriate. yum

Can you believe next week is Madonna night? Can’t wait after seeing Sue’s preview!
