Initial assessment of Glee

After two episodes…

The good:

Quirky as hell Original  characters with actual character development A possible reference to HL Menken in the pilot Good music Genuinely funny

The bad:

High school kids can be mean, but never this mean A smidgen of sap A formulaic plot but with blessedly non-formulaic characters

…and that might be it.

Overall a rousing success so far.  I love it.
