To watch, or not watch, Glee? This seems to be the question, from acquaintances who fear that their love for High School Musical will be nastily exposed after copping to watching this show, to others who hate ill-timed “improvised” song-and-dance sequences (i.e., with a few seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, a high school football team really shouldn’t do a full-fledged dance sequence to “loosen up” so that they can make the game winning drive – um, ever heard of a delay of game penalty??). Such is the quandary that fellow fan Narinda faced … until the power of Jane Lynch came across the airwaves in the form of an 8-minute segment on NPR’s All Things Considered. In her words:
But it was after only after hearing clips of Jane Lynch as Sue Sylvester on NPR’s All Things Considered that I REALLY wanted to watch Glee. I think it was the clip about allowing Will Schuester to “launder [her] delicates” that put me over the edge.
Your turn to be put over — the entire clip can be heard here. For those of you who have some catching up to do, you can watch the last five episodes of Glee on Hulu. Thank gods for the internets.
