lizbee: A sketch of myself (TV: Dean)
[personal profile] lizbee
Three seasons of jokes at the expense of Glee come together for an all-singing Christmas finale.  I swear, if this show doesn't come back from hiatus ... you know what?  I actually agree with the AV Club; this is a hiatus, not a cancellation.  Although I am kind of amused that, judging by his Twitter, the only thing Dan Harmon hates more than Glee now is NBC.  He hates his network like Steven Moffat hates straightforward plots.



So this pretty much had my heart with the opening joke about the Inspector Spacetime Christmas special, the revocation of the knighthood and the general implication that it was something like "The Five Doctors" meets "Dimensions in Time". 

I don't watch Glee, although I had the unpleasure of listening to about half the first season before [personal profile] piecesofalice and [profile] suburbannoir got tired of the misogyny, so I feel like I missed a lot of jokes.  On the other hand, the bit where glee club makes Annie stupid, that, I got.  And the creepy, bus-crashing club runner ... teacher ... dude.

OH MAN, I WANT ALL THE SONGS.  Especially Troy and Abed's rap.  SO MANY BITS I LOVED, like the official glee club's collective breakdown, and "Glee! I'll understand every scene/ because they'll sing what they mean/ instead of making a face" and Baby Boomer Santa!  And the song in Britta's heart being kind of awkward and dorky!  TROY BARNES!  JEHOVAH'S MOST SECRET WITNESS!  And the tag!  AND IT WAS ALL BASED ON A FAKE FLASH-BACK EPISODE!

In conclusion:





On an unrelated, but equally joyful note, we had so many tech problems at work today that I wrote 750 words of my [community profile] white_lotus fic.  GO TEAM LIZ!

I KNOW! HOW AWESOME WAS THAT? Although I choose to believe those episodes truly exist... somewhere.
