glee12n-5-webOh Glee, you continuously find new and interesting ways to frustrate/enrage/engage the people that watch your show. How else could one explain that tomfoolery that was the recent episode of Glee? Everywhere you looked on the internet were people saying how this was Glee’s most intense episode ever, yet by the end of the episode I just felt emotionally abused and cheated. So much so that it’s taken me this long to even write up my thoughts because I was just too done. But here at last is my sternly worded blog post.
