As much as i like glee, the christmas episode seemed like one big advertisement for the christmas album. Sure, finchel fans were pleased because they got an almost storyline, rory fans got a song, but everyone else were pretty much ignored. I hope the next episode is better. Especially since they're making us wait til the 17th.

This episode was just boring. I wish the episode was more of a story rather than an attempt to fit as many Christmas songs into one episode as possible. Last years episode was so much better. It had Rachel and Finn drama, Baby it's cold Outside for the fangirls, and Sue turning into the Grinch. At least that episode had events that affected the rest of the season rather than being a complete useless episode that did nothing other than establish that Sam and Rory now friends.

@MistyeyedNStarrified Civil? ON THE INTERNET?! LE GASP. The subplots were addressed in such a way that if you missed this episode, you wouldn't miss much at all. Just pure fluff as it were.

And anytime Heather Morris gets to shine is a good day.

@charlotterojas They are the "main" characters of Glee. That's just how it is... sadly.

@moua64 It really didn't, but it did have a song or two more then usual.

[MistyeyedNStarrified]

@TowerlightVideo Lol. I figured. But come now, it wasn't completely pointless. The subplots moved the season arc. That's something, right? And considering the episode is very much like its titular character (random and funny, yet superfluous), it was kinda fitting. I thought it was fun and Heather got to really shine!

How nice discussing difference of opinion can be when kept civil, eh? ;)

@MistyeyedNStarrified I wish they would've focused on all the couples as well! I was looking forward to the Klaine gift, Mike & Tina, Puck, Quinn.... This episode completely undermined everyone's roles except Finn and Rachel's, who were the only ones with some sort of plot, as unnecessary as it was.

@MistyeyedNStarrified Pointless. So pointless. Didn't really like most of the songs. It was awful. It hurt everywhere. The mechanism for the songs "Lets get gassed" was AWFUL.

@MistyeyedNStarrified These characters reset worse then the Power Rangers SPD

@KewlKat589 Because Klaine is more established. Or America can't handle cute lesbian moments?
