THREAD THE NEEDLE: Perhaps because this was a Quinn and Terri-heavy (and generally singing-light) episode of Glee, I expect opinions to be decidedly mixed on the episode, but I thought that the girls' mashup was one of the more creative things the show has done musically, rather than a straight cover. The ending, of course, set up some interesting stuff for the future, giving Sue something to do beyond being a one-dimensional villain. Next week, based on iTunes, we're getting "Keep Holding On" and a Finn/Rachel "No Air."
That said, Glee finishes second tonight to Modern Family on the list of shows that made me laugh heartily at 9 PM. Because MF has 10 principal characters, they can cycle them through and create new pairings and groups of interactions rather than relying on the same ones week after week, and we got three new sets of interactions this week (Jay/Phil, Alex/Gloria, Claire/Manny). Also it's rare that you can find a sitcom that manages to balance 4 plots in 22 minutes in the way Seinfeld used to. In particular, the entire Costco plot made me laugh heartily, if just for Jesse Tyler Ferguson's perfectly played excitement, and Ty Burrell already deserves a supporting actor Emmy more than Jon Cryer ever did. My one nitpick is why every episode seemingly needs to end with a heartwarming moment of the family coming together to overcome its differences. Still, funny, funny stuff.
From the moment the first Mercedes-Benz CLS four-door "coupe" was introduced to the public, other German luxury automakers hit the drafting board. According to the German auto experts at AutoBild, Audi is just over a year away from unleashing its own cleverly packaged sedan.
