‘Glee’ review: Shockers for Dianna Agron, Naya Rivera, and Lea Michele in ‘I Do’
Leading up to Thursday night’s “Glee,” there were a number of things that we certainly expected to see: Kurt and Blaine getting back together, Finn and Rachel hooking up, and even Jake trying to persuade Marley into doing the deed with him. However, where in the world did Quinn and Santana come from? The most important thing that the show did here was make it pretty clear that Dianna Agron’s character did not just suddenly turn lesbian overnight, and this is just the sort of experiment thing that happens in college.
The strangest part of this episode, which featured Emma leaving Will at the altar, to us was the mere fact that the wedding reception happened in the first place. If you were friends of Will’s, why in the world would you still go celebrate a wedding that didn’t happen? This ceremony did at least brings us some pretty significant moments, with the primary one being Finn’s pretty awesome (and possibly booze-impacted speech to Rachel) that made it pretty clear just where his feelings lie, and his confidence that the story is going to eventually end in his favor.
The only thing that made the Finchel story even more interesting was seeing how the entire relationship between her and Brody is just built up on a giant (and rather hilarious) lie. We know that this is not going anywhere. Meanwhile, Marley ended up getting an awkward kiss from Ryder once she admitted to him that she knew who was really pulling the strings on her Valentine’s Day.
As for what happened with Will and Emma, Finn actually helped him to track down his prospective wife-to-be despite the fact that he kissed her just last week. The other major romance news right now? Artie has a new love interest in Emma’s niece, played by Ali Stroker of “The Glee Project.”
This was ultimately a bit of a weird episode in many ways: many storylines were really just left open; we didn’t get much resolution for Quinn and Santana, Emma’s whereabouts are still unknown, Sue showing up to walk down the aisle was just ridiculous, Oh, and should we also mention that Rachel may be pregnant, possibly with Finn’s baby?
Did you enjoy “I Do,” even in spite of some of its various problems? If you want to check out some music from the episode yet again, you can do so by heading over here.

Well it’s not Finn’s baby because you can get in less than a week pregnant and miss your period. So if its a new baby story it’s gonna be Brody’s. if not then RIB need to know more about woman.

I don’t think that we have to see Rachel as a slut. The only thing she did, was be with Finn that night. AND REMEMBER! They were a couple, so they still have feelings for each other. So, if Ryan Murphy thinked that this Rachel’s pregnacy storyline will be good… Yes! I’m agree with him. Is not the same storyline that Quinn had. Quinn was alone, Puck didn’t love her. But with Finn and Rachel, they love each other, besides I think that Rachel wouldn’t be able to give the baby or have an abortion. All the story with her mom, makes a difference here. If she’s pregnant, I know that she will keep the baby.
I LOVE QUINNTANA!! THAT SCENE… WOW! I WAS SO SPEECHLESS…

Qinntana is the bomb. Always been a fan of Naya & Dianna’s chemistry on the show so its no surprise Quinntana is explosive even if it is just a bit of fun & a means of giving Quinn a storyline. What better way to experiment than with your brutally honest best friend. In saying that Santana needed someone who reflects her intellectual capabilities. Someone more mature. If that’s Quinn for now so be it. I’m thinking theyll make Quinntana a casual fling for now until it becomes less casual. There is no way Rachel can be preggers. Her & Finn were in such a good place. You just never know what will happen with Klaine. I like how the ex students are growing up and dealing with more “real world” “grown up”issues & learning to accept the situations at hand. It was quite refreshing.

Oh yeah I forgot. Rachael pregnant? This show has been riding on Rachael’s goody goody ass for this season. Stupid idea people!

First episode this season my daughter said I might like. She was half right. Again I could do without the new kids or the old kids still in Lima; especially Finn. However, I did like his look this time, not a pantywaist overweight baby-man. Not as much anyway.
I predicted a Quinn and Santana grouping a few months ago because the show was getting so lame they had to pull some gimmick to revive the show. I don’t expect it to last; the actors have more self respect than that.
It’s again a showthat I used to know. See that. I worked in a song they once did; when the show was tolerable;kind of, maybe.

Still don’t care about the new kids and I prefer Santana with Brit. Santana always protected Brit from herself and other mean people. But let’s get down with the new shocker – Rachel getting pregnant! So she’s the new slut? Com’on? That behavior is ridiculous for Rachel and shouldn’t be tolerated!

the best part of this episode was the quinn and santana part. that was freaking hot want to see more of them like that and the way santana looked at her when quinn said she looked good in the dress damn that look was sexy. she deserves someone like quinn even though they do fight and slap each other it just makes everything between them better and hotter
Get It Santana Lopez!

It is finally nice to see Santana paired romantically with someone who is at her caliber!! I really hope they expand on the Quinntana story line! They are awesome and so entertaining!

That was the first time since forever that an episode entertained me so much. Or at all, honestly. I still do not care about the new kids, but the old cast made it worth it!
And excuse me but Quinn and Santana? That is the. Best. Thing. Ever. Wow.
I’ve always wondered what these two could be like together, but of course I never thought that it would happen lol. Now that really intrigues me! Too bad it was probably just a stunt. I’d love to see where this could go! Especially if you consider that Quinn and Santana are always better characters when they’re paired together, be it friendship or… sexing it up lol. They’d make a hot, funny, snarky, and adult couple. Brittany was nice, but it’s hard to care for a couple when half of it is acting like a preschooler. And I also think revisiting Brittana would be a colossal mistake, they don’t share anything anymore and I don’t feel the chemistry anymore either. The spark used to be there but now…
So yeah, I usually don’t care that much about Finchel and Klaine but I liked them in this episode :)
Emma was awesome, I still don’t care about Brody or the new kids, glad Artie got some love, grateful they didn’t shove Sam down my throat again and again and again, love that Finn is finally likeable and growing up and Amber Riley did an amazing job with the vocals!
Anyway, for me, Quinntana stole the episode! :)

That was a pretty entertaining episode, overall. The ending was exciting, but I’m still not sure how I feel about yet ANOTHER baby-oriented storyline. Santana/Quinn moment was unexpected, but welcome. Curious to see where that goes. I continued to skip anything that happened between Jake/Marley/Ryder. ZZZZzzzzzz…. *sniff-sniff* sorry, the smell of the prominent melodrama between the three of them woke me up. They really dropped the ball with Sue’s appearence, that had a lot of potential. Did they really have no other ideas beside the runaway bride storyline? Just unnessecary, get on with it already. And might I add; The Blaine/Kurt makeout session= HOT.
