Hmm I guess Rachel was just who I happened to be watching when that part came on. And yes Slackit you are right about HS performances, I guess I am jealous in knowing that my high school will never ever ever put on Rocky Horror (but with good reason, the plot makes no damn sense). Still when Brad and Janet sing along in 'Time Warp' that is gonna bug the crap out of fans of RHS. And any alteration that Glee will do is gonna make the fans hate it even more. Like the double Magentas and Columbias and when Tina sang her part of Columbia's solo out of sync.
Spacedal, I think its silly for RHS fans to be mad and hate Glee because they are doing it in their own way. But it isn't supposed to be exactly the same. Being pissed off that things don't follow the originals word for word is the fans fault, not those re-doing it. I see this same problem for the show True Blood. There are fans of the books out there that HATE the show because it isn't following the books exactly as they are written. But the show isn't written by the author of the book, and changes have been made that actually make the show better. Glee is paying tribute to RHS, not re-living it. No matter what they do, fans of RHS will be pissed because its not exactly the same. The truth is though, not only can't it be - but it shouldn't be. I would be MORE upset if Glee tried to make everything exactly the same. They sing the songs to give "props" to the original, but don't want to be considered equal at all because they respect/like the original too much. The show will actually take less criticism for being "off track" then it would if they tried to be exactly the same. You can't compare apples to oranges.

I know more people than I can count who agree that autotune is one of the worst things to happen to the music industry in a loooong time.
Totally agree with this one. It's another way producers can make money by lying to the public via false singing acts; it's Milli Vanilli on steroids...
Um. They aren't false singing acts though. Really, could autotune take someone who can't sing and make them awesome? Lea Michele has been in Broadway productions since 1995. Kevin McHale was in a boyband before Glee. Jenna Ushkowitz started on Broadway in 1996. Mark Salling sings, writes, and produces his own music, and plays the piano, guitar, bass guitar, and drums. He also released a solo album back in 2008 (before Glee) Matthew Morrison is a Tony Award winning performer. These people obviously have proven themselves as performers before Glee and without autotune. Just because the show uses it doesn't mean they aren't capable of great performances on their own. I doubt they brought autotune along on the tour.

Never thought I'd see the day where a show like Glee got its own thread somewhere on PEEL.
That's right, I'm not a gleek.

Why is this thread is dead? I want to bring it back to life again. I am a big Gleek and this year is going to be brilliant because I am going to see the Glee casts on tour when they are coming to the uk in June and in July I am going to Birmingham for 3 days at a hotel where they are doing a Glee convention and some of the casts will be there. I am so very excited. Oh I follow the casts on Twitter. The show is getting really good and I really love what’s going on. Relationships update: Artie and Brittany, Kurt and Blaine, Finn and Quinn, Puke and Lauren, Emma was with Carl but he left her, Will had a bit of a relationship with Holly Holiday but that didn’t last long. Santana is a closet lesbian. I really have a huge crush on Kevin Mchale I love this from the last episode when they were singing Gaga Born this way Oh you got to love this pic:

I hate that word so much. I've decided I dislike this show immensely. I'm going to start calling people who like it Gleetards.

I admit I spent pretty much all of Thursday catching up on season 2. It's like..a guilty pleasure thing.
I dont get why whats her face paltrow is suddenly a singer.
She has been dabbling for at least 11 years.
Holy shit. That movie came out 11 years ago? Time goes by really fast. I've missed like the past... lot of episodes. Last one I saw full was Finn being totally out of character and wanting Quinn again. But I did see half of the Born this Way episode. Seriously with Mercedes? No Weave? At least Lauren's is.... kinda okay. They both should have said "fat." Especially if you are naming things you WEREN'T born with. Like a weave. And tnuk, though you try to insult people who like Glee by calling them Gleetards, you really are just supporting the fans, because they thrive off of being different.

I don't like Rebecca Black's Friday but I do like the version from the boys and they sang well better then her's Anyway I like the Prom episode and it was really good. Love Kurt's quote when he collect his crown "Eat your heart out Kate Middleton" And Karofsky was really good too.
