Mixer

My adorable sister told me that it's totally cool for me to write only about tv. Not necessary for me to foray into the world of personal hygiene. But my perpetual boredom has encouraged me to branch out a little bit anyway. Not too much, but a little.

This branching out refers to my shoddy Greekaps. I still love Greek and I want to share the love, but I am not so into writing about all the details lately. I mean, I thought that stoned Casey was amazing, I loved weird blonde girl singing Mr. Big's "To Be With You, and Ashleigh connecting her relationship with Fisher (I'm dropping the Hunter/Gatherer because I want to write about him more, and the Hunter/Gatherer is a little too long) to the Chris Brown/Rihanna saga.

But I want to dedicate my time this week to what I considered the best episode of the week. And that honor belongs to Glee's latest episode, "Preggers."

You love it already, right? Just because of the episode title. Mixes some drama with the always appreciated abbrevs. And the episode only gets better.

Seriously. It starts with Kurt, Stuttering Tina, and Quinion #2 (thank you TWoP for the introduction of the word Quinion) doing the "Single Ladies" dance in sequined unitards. And while I am seriously in love with Taylor's "You Belong With Me" video (click here for proof), I can't deny that Beyonce has a baller video and an addictive dance. It was an amazing jump start to an already awesome episode.

And then celibate Quinn is all tears and tells Finn the adorable oaf that she is preggers, because of the time that he came in the hot tub when they were making out one time. And he buys it. Because he is a moron.

Principal Figgins, though not a moron, has to do some moronic things and rehire pedo Sandy (seriously, not me), because Sue Sylvester has a video of an Indian commercial that he was in, in which he tries on stockings. So Sandy and Sue team up to steal Rachel Berry away from the glee club. This results in the most beautiful 30 second song I have ever heard. Go check it out on iTunes immediately. It's called "Taking Chances" and it's incredible.

That reminds me, I was reading a recap of this episode of Glee on EW.com and it started "First off, has everyone downloaded “Somebody to Love,” which is performed in next week’s episode of Glee? If you haven’t, then stop reading this right now, open iTunes, and get at it! I’m already obsessed with it and have it in steady rotation on my iPod." I immediately opened iTunes and downloaded it. And it's so good. "Somebody to Love" and "Don't Stop Believin" have been on my favorite songs playlist for years, so I'm loving the Glee covers.

Other brilliant things about the episode include Kurt's coming out to his manly father, which was equally touching and ridiculously funny, the football team doing the "Single Ladies" dance during a football game, and um, I can't pick one more thing because it was all so good.

And because I have broken my Greekap promise, the next thing I will write is bound to surprise all. Well, maybe not surprise, but it won't be too blah.
