Firstly, would you guys stop saying that the show is crap! Seriously, the ideas are perfectly fine! Seriously. Just because the show is taking a different spin doesn’t mean the ideas are any less moving or exciting. Yes! I admit there have been a few episodes where you could say they were filling in time, however the majority have actually been really unusual ideas. Take the Puppet Master for example. That was a fantastic idea. Really different and unusual, something you wouldn’t expect. That’s what it’s all about, creating ideas that the audience won’t expect and obviously keeping a stable storyline. Yes, there have been holes where the storyline of a character has been left, but if you listen carefully to the dialogue, a character or characters mention where they’ve gone or what’s happened. A cover up, and an easy way of making up the mistake, but still it’s there. You guys also have to understand that it’s pretty difficult to come up with new and exciting ideas each week that will appeal to your audiences. Don’t discard Glee because of one bad episode, or even a couple. Seriously, where has there been a season that you’ve seen where there hasn’t been a bad episode or an episode that wasn’t up to the standard of the others. I’m yet to come across one. It doesn’t mean I discard it. Anyway, I really like the direction Glee is heading. I would think it boring that the show continue to stay at McKinley and their only goal was Nationals all the time. It’s already been done. The goal has been achieved. Although there was much controversy about the 4th season and what it brought to the table, I really liked it because it was unusual and new ideas were being played around. I especially liked the drug idea (because it does happen) and the school shooting, because again (it does happen.) It’s also interesting to see how the actors/actresses deal with these new situations – challenging their acting a bit. So, I do not think it’s such a bad idea to move the cast away from the base of McKinley High. The original characters are graduating. It’s time for a change. I also do not think that Glee as a whole, is getting bad or less exciting at all. It’s changing. It’s growing up, just like the characters.
