So that's Glee

Finally watched an episode of Glee. It's the "Mesh Up" episode, and overall it's entertaining. But ...

Yeah, but.

First of all I found it a bit too cliche. And then the musical part ... I mean, I don't have that much problem with lipsyncing, especially during a dance sequence. Even Janet Jackson can't perfectly dance without some help of audio technology. But I do have problem with extremely obvious musical instrument playing. Somehow it's just too distracting to me. The camera man tried his best to avoid shoting on people strumming on the guitar, pressing chord or doing roll on the hi-hat ... but still ...

On the other hand, I like all the dancing. They are vibrant and delightful. I wish they have more of that.

I do know that I am not the show's target audience though. The high school drama cliche in my eyes are probably what makes the show popular among young people after all.

Still, this is just my first episode. There are still more in my DVR, and maybe I'll change my mind after a few more dose.
