Product Details

The season is an uneven one, losing steam with the Britney Spears tribute episode and some excruciating plot lines, then having slightly more success with themed episodes (The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Christmas, and the cleverly handled episode involving Justin Bieber, of all people). Fresh energy came from the new students, guest star Gwyneth Paltrow as substitute teacher Holly Holliday, and new football coach Beiste (Dot-Marie Jones), who even inspires a temporary alliance between Will and Sue (Jane Lynch). The show relied less on Broadway tunes and more on classic rock and contemporary pop (Lady Antebellum, Queen, Fleetwood Mac, Lady Gaga) and even introduced its own original songs, the best of which ("Get It Right," "Loser Like Me") are unveiled in the regionals. Morrison and Michele aren't featured nearly as prominently as they were in the first season, but Michele still crushes her big numbers like "Get It Right" and Katy Perry's "Firework," and she participates in dazzling duets with Amber Riley ("Take Me for What I Am") and Agron ("Unpretty/I Feel Pretty"). Other showstopping moments from the season include Rivera's "Valerie," Rivera and Riley's "River Deep, Mountain High," Overstreet and Agron's "Lucky," Paltrow's "Forget You" and "Landslide," the group rendition of My Chemical Romance's "Sing," and almost anything by the Warblers (voiced by Tufts University's Beelzebubs), especially Pink's "Raise Your Glass" and Neon Trees' "Animal." (Parental discretion advised due to mature themes) --David Horiuchi

A must buy!,

This review is from: Glee: Season 2 (DVD)
If you already haven't bought this DVD you MUST buy it now!The DVD extras(features) are amazing, and what's better than having glee marathon's for a whole week, right? The storylines in this season was amazing. The whole Santana thing (which I am looking forward to season 3, premiering Tuesday, September 20, 2011 US). There were also amazing guest stars that we all loved, some examples are John Stamos and Gwenyth Paltrow. The songs. Do not get me started with the songs! For example, the mash-up with West Side Story and TLC. That turned out beautifully. Then there are the Original Songs, which is basically a gleek anthem! There's Loser Like Me, Get it Right, Light Up The World, Trouty Mouth, My cup. I mean .. if you already haven't listened to them .. 1) As if and 2) Kill yourself. I really suggest you buying this DVD if you're a gleek like myself! :) I see it as a collector's item really. 10 years from now, I'm going to watch all the glee seasons and cry because of how I miss it so much !

Of course if you like the TV series then you will appreciate watching and listening to the music of Glee. Great season to watch. Our family has watched it twice and will see it again and again.
