Five on Friday Set 20
Posted: Friday, June 11, 2010 by Travis Cody in
First a little business. The title of last week's Five on Friday post said Set 18 while the play list said Set 19. I did a wooops in the post title. Last week was in fact the 19th Set. Sorry for any confusion if you're playing along.
Next, let me make it clear...I am not a fan of the program Glee. I am not entertained by adults who should know better being cruel to kids just because they can. I do not find blatant lies and manipulation entertaining. Neither Pam nor I find it entertaining that a bully exploits issues such as sexual harassment in the workplace, portraying herself as the victim of it when she is in fact the perpetrator. We do not care for the often demeaning way the program portrays diversity and difference. And we don't like the stereotypes on which nearly every character is based.
Third, keep in mind that's just our opinion.
I can tell you that we are entertained by the talented young people on the program, which is why we record it so that we can fast forward through the stuff we don't find entertaining to get to the stuff we want to see.
So for Set 20, I've stretched the guidelines again to bring you 11 reasons why we watched Season 1 of Glee and will likely watch Season 2 when it returns in the fall.
If you'd like to join us in the musical fun, the guidelines are basic and simple.

No tags, but feel free to invite your friends to play along if they need a post topic on a Friday.

Aw ... this is so sweet. Not fair making a girl cry first thing in the morning!
Happy First Date Anniversary to you and Pam and may you never ever have to have a first date ever again!
