FOX HAS OFFICIALLY PUT A RING ON IT: For me, tonight's Glee was the most cosmically linked to date with Ryan Murphy's prior work on Popular. The football game, in particular, was the kind of loopy fun that always made me giggle whenever Mary Cherry's momma, Cherry Cherry, made one of her appearances, or when a character named Exquisite Woo showed up to be wooed by Sugar Daddy, or almost anything having to do with April Tuna. And even though you kind of had to figure that that scene in the 4th quarter was coming, it didn't make it any less hilarious.

Yeah, there was a disconnect between the Glee scenes and the football scenes, and Mr. Shu's sadsack marriage to his coy harpy remains annoying, and Murphy does seem determined not to let Lea Michele ever just happily do something -- wheelchair guy's point about the storming out having less impact every time she does it was positively Hurleyesque in its coulda-come-from-the-audienceness -- but I can't imagine not sticking with this oddball show for as long as Fox keeps it around.
