I am only sort of enjoying Glee this season. It ebbs and wanes, but I'm not even feeling most of the music. I don't like this Sam/Brit thing mostly because they've fucked around with Sam so much, and I'm still sad they broke up both of our queer couples. My feels on the new cast are mostly the same as yours. Although I did think that Marley's monologue in Thanksgiving was good and should have happened at the beginning of the damn season. I would have been more inclined to like her if they'd introduced her that way and built on it for a while instead of just telling us she's great and throwing us right into A Serious Storyline. Beh.
