Glee

This can fuck right off. It must be the WORST show I've ever had the misfortune of experiencing.

Typical candy cane Yankee bollocks. Take a popular format and rape it until its completely dry (see "The Nations/World's obsession with Vampires").

"High School Musical" was a popular Disney kids franchise (albeit extremely annoying). So of course the makers of Glee have decided that they will run with this format, and rinse it to the nth degree.

Cheerleaders? Check
Songs? Check
Dance Routines? Check
Typical High School setting? Check
Actors playing characters much younger than themselves? Check

And then there is the songs.... talk about murder. Here are just a few of the songs they've managed to butcher over the past year or so

Journey - Don't Stop Believin'
Queen - Somebody to Love
REO Speedwagon - Can't Fight This Feeling
Heart - Alone
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Proud Mary
Jennifer Holliday - And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going

And the most criminal of all of these macabre covers?

John Lennon - Imagine

I'll never in all my days understand why the Lennon estate allowed a bunch of ingrates and love-to-dress-up-as-schoolkids Yank wankers, to cover one of the greatest songs ever written in living memory. It beggars belief sometimes it really does.

And then you have the fans, the people who watch this fucking dross. They're affectionately known as "Gleeks", geddit? Its like "Glee, and Geek" being amalgamated... Brilliant eh?

I affectionately refer to them as "Cunts"
