GLEE - Season 2

Not as good as Season 1 but it still has its moments.

Ryan Murphy pushes his own agenda too much this season, perhaps in a way to finally have the high school experience he wanted to have, culminating in Kurt going to prom with a guy.  There's nothing wrong with this at all.  Except, during the season, it diminished the entertainment factor somewhat.  However, having the school vote Kurt as Prom Queen was drama at its finest.

The season has its showstopping moments.  Santana singing LANDSLIDES to Brittney was outstanding.  The relationship between Kurt and his father always provides the series best scenes.  Darren Criss continues to shine.  Michele Lea and Dianna Argon should become major stars.

However, there's a lot of filler this year.  Too much reliance on broadway showtunes.  The Rocky Horror episode was a waste.  The songs took on too much emphasis at the expense of character development. 

First season was a smash.  This season rested on its laurels.
