Although I don't think its been too bad with guest stars themselves. Some of the ones that have been in it seemed to be chosen more for their roles rather than "look who inexplicably happened to be in Lima, OH today"

No that has improved and I think Lambert and Lovato fit sort of well.
Worryingly...Glee : The Musical? Surely a cliche too far? (never mind years too late imo!)
Never rated Billy Joel's bland Beatles influenced songs, but have to admit they worked well in a musical theatre kind of a way. Not caring much about any of the characters any more, but liked Becky's progress, even though it apparently needed Artie to sort things out. Condescending much?
Or, more accurately, he is more able to relate to the problems/feelings she was having. (As was made clear in the dialogue!)
Yeah, he was the best character to do it. It could have seemed a bit 'condescending' had they had Tina or Kitty offer to help Becky out - of course it wouldn't be written/portrayed like that.
I was expecting a blaine-athon this week as the first 2 songs were sung by (moistly) him and appeared within the first 10 minutes, but thankfully that didn't happen.
I know Marley/Jake/Ryder had a bit of a storyline this week, but i still can't shake the feeling anyone who isn't Blaine, Sam or the NYC lot is just 'the scenery'
Actually for the most part I kinda liked it, true Glee goofiness they only can do once a season. Its just a shame it fell off a cliff with What the Fox Says.
Loved Sue's acknowledgement that they just go to New York at the drop of a hat.
^Looking at the US airdates, it'll be quite a wait. First episode back isn't until February 25th so if Sky keeps it as is we should get it February 28th.

They seemed to have moved away from big Broadway guest stars to homages to whichever pop star Brennan and Murphy happen to like

This weeks episode felt like the Glee of old. Great moments, fair bit of humour and some decent songs.
I didn't even mind Tyra Banks hamming it up. I so wanted Wilhelmina Slater to march in and give Ms. Bichette a piece of her mind.
And I kind of like the prospect of Blam moving into Bushwick. Sort of a musical Friends.
I found it the most boring episode so far
Morrison looked to be awake, the Rachel-Sam flirting and the best/worst of Sue
As for Sam and Rachel.. well they weren't exactly subtle at hinting at it eh? haha Especially the look on Santana's face at the end. Priceless.
No, about as subtle as the Innocent Man performance!

You are right though, they do seem to neglect characters quite a bit. Ryder has hardly spoke all season, well up until this episode.
Well that would've certainly been different!
It's by Robin Thicke, his son ;-)
I know ;-) I just like saying it to see how many remember Alan "Growing Pains" Thicke.

The nasty boys/rhythm nation bit was awesome but the rest? Blaine succeeded in being even more annoying, the Becky puppet was cute
Bloody weird.
What was that? One long weird trip
Directed by ERs Rocket Romano too
It would be fun if they go all gimmicky for the last series.
Nice spot. (I missed it.)
