There's no sub-board for live-action, so... anyone seen Glee? It comes on at 9 EST on Wednesdays. Personally, I love the show. It's pretty much taking over my Avatar obsession right now. Basically, it's about a Spanish teacher named Will who wants to start running the school's Glee Club, which is at the bottom of the food chain, so to speak. Emma, a guidance counselor who is madly in love with him, obviously supports the idea. Will runs with it and renames the club "New Directions". Five teens sign up, including Rachel, a wannabe star, Mercedes, the typical diva, Tina, a stuttering punk, Kurt, a flamboyant soprano, and Artie, a guitar playing paraplegic. Will also blackmails the star quarterback, Finn, into signing up. Sue, the cheerleading coach, dislikes this, and sends one of the cheerleaders, Quinn, on a mission to destroy the Glee Club. And... that's basically it. The show's rated TV-14. It's kinda dark, but it's also pretty funny. There's a lot of music in it too. My favorite characters were Rachel, Emma, and Mercedes from the start, but I've also really grown to like Kurt after episode 3 and 4, so he's one of my favorites now too. Plus, his actor (Chris Colfer) is just plain AMAZING. Anyone here a Gleek?

Hm, I've seen the commercials, but really don't watch a lot of TV. I could probably find it on HULU. Sounds interesting, I may have to check it out. EDIT: Here we go: www.hulu.com/glee

Watching the first episode now.
EDIT:
It's a good show. I like Will, he has a good heart and I feel a connection to him and what he values.
The show seems to exaggerate typical school social issues. Truth is, many lonely people go through school without ever knowing the existence of others like them. This is why a glee club is needed.

New episode just aired! What did you guys think? I think my favorites right now are episodes 3 and 4. Yay for Will and Kurt.

well, I've only watched one episode, and i don't think anyone else here watches. Me, I've been obsessed with Full Metal Panic lately, but I'll eventually watch more.
What happened with Will and Kurt?

Oh, Will made an men's acapella group with other staff, and Kurt helped the football team win and came out to both Mercedes AND his dad. Oh, I think Will and Sue have just joined my favorite characters list after "Vitamin D"! EDIT: Scratch that. Finn's definitely off after the last episode. Will's also down a few pegs. But Sue is amazing.

Seen it before, like it but probably won't follow it.
My school's chorus teacher is a giant Gleek, as I've heard from my friend in show choir.
Also, Kristin Chenoweth's cameo was a big reason I enjoyed the episode I saw, since I'm a big fan of the unfortunately short lived "Pushing Daisies".

I actually haven't watched it, but I kind of feel like I need to now. A lot of my friends watch it. At first I didn't think I would like it that much but then my friend sent me a clip from it (of Kurt...), and it made me want to watch the show...
Yes, I am a strange pathetic young soul.

So, I watched an episode last night. (It wasn't even the first episode. XD) I thought I wouldn't like it that much, and so far, it's not the greatest show I've seen, but I don't dislike it either. Kurt's definitely my favorite character. I love him already. I'm not too crazy about the show yet.
