Glee review

Interesting to start with, but hard to watch now

When it first started, I wasn't sure whether I would like Glee. I was interested somewhat but the comparisons to the High School Musical franchise, which I dislike very much, put me off. I still watched the show to start and did enjoy it to start with(if to compare to HSM, this is much better), particularly for the charming production values, sprightly choreography and catchy music. However, by Season 2 Glee for me went downhill and I soon got bored of it. The writing became very clichรฉd and lazy, the stories uninteresting, episodic and lacking in freshness(I wasn't a fan of the Lady Gaga episodes or the Rocky Horror Picture Show one) and the characters dull and indifferent. The acting was decent to start with, but then you had the sense the actors were starting to get bored with their characters, Naya Rivera is one of about three exceptions to properly inject life into the character she plays. All in all, interesting at first but once it ran out of ideas and became lazier and duller it became hard to watch. 3/10 Bethany Cox
