I admit it, I'm a "Gleek!"
The problem with television these days is that most shows follow the same old, worn out themes. Most sitcoms are terrible save for a few like Two and a Half Men, How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory and although I haven't seen it I've heard good things about Modern Family. Television network dramas are pretty dull especially the crime/law shows. I do like the few episodes I've seen of The Good Wife, but the Law & Orders and CSI's have just gotten boring. With Lost & 24 ending their runs the shows I seem to enjoy most are the reality shows. Survivor, Amazing Race, American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance, Top Chef and even Project Runway. I enjoy them all. But to me no show stands out more this season than "Glee." It's fresh, funny, topical, well acted, well written and the music numbers are really terrific! The actress who plays Rachel (Lea Michele) is absolutely fantastic. Her voice is incredible. It's the one show these days that Kristine, myself and Jordan will all sit down and watch together. That's saying a lot. Pulling Jordan away from the computer or video games is always a challenge, but he too enjoys Glee. Of course it's not for everyone but I'm just an old drama geek at heart. Much of my high school days involved drama. I performed in such shows as Inherit the Wind, Godspell, Bye Bye Birdie and many more. In many ways I can relate to the talented young students on the show. But most of all Glee is just fun. So that's it. I'm a "Gleek" and proud of it!
