Now... what was I going to actually discuss before my Glee tangent? Haha, oh right. I wanted to discuss social media. But now I think I'll save it for another day when I want to blog but have nothing to discuss. Darn it, my title was really good, too. I'll have to come up with another.

Toxic
In honor of the Glee episode on Tuesday, appropriately titled "Britney/Brittany," I have titled this entry "Toxic." It actually goes along with the topic in which I will discuss today. But first, I would like to discuss Glee a little bit. As you have to know by now, I love Glee. I'm obsessed with the show. One day I will be on the show. For now, I buy the CDs, the DVDs and watch every Tuesday (or Wednesday on Hulu if I have work/rehearsal). Season One: Part One was fantastic. Those are the episodes from "Pilot" to "Sectionals." The writing was pretty good, and the only flashy celebrities were very critical to plot points (Victor Garber and Debra Monk as Will's parents, Kristin Chenoweth as April... Eve was a bit weird, but it worked... Josh Groban was unnecessary but I still love him). The second part of the season, "Hell-O" to "Journey," seriously lacked heart. It was all about flashy celebrities singing more songs than the actual cast members. "The Power of Madonna" was excellent, but most of the other episodes were just so-so. Things happened way too fast. I loved the song choices and ending with Journey songs again. It was a smart move for New Directions to lose the competition. Season Two is upon us now, and after the first episode, I'm still testing the waters. The new guy is absolutely unnecessary and not as talented as the seasoned Glee clubbers. The new girl, however, is amazing. The AUTO TUNE is killing me. Ryan Murphy, if you ever see this, stop auto tuning your singings. It shows that the production team has no faith in the actors on this show. If they can't sing, don't cast them! The auto tuning was out of control in the season one finale. Lea Michele does NOT need auto tune. It's absolutely nuts. Jonathan Groff auto tuned was offensive. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Also, the guest stars need to calm down. Sure, bring Kristin back. Why not? I am excited for Carol Burnette as Sue's mom. But Susan Boyle as a lunch lady? Javier Bardem? As much as I LOVE Neil Patrick Harris... his storyline was not important enough to have him come back. Idina Menzel is supposedly returning, as is Jonathan Groff... why? Their storyline is over. Jesse graduated, and Shelby quit to raise Quinn's baby. Chill on the guests. Focus on the kids. So Glee, I have high hopes. Don't be disappointing. I think I will pee myself, though, with this Britney Spears episode. I'm so thrilled.
