Have you guys had the chance to catch the new american musical comedy Glee yet?
My god, it should be hands-down DA BEST tv show for 2009! StarWorld is only showing it now, but i managed to caught it last year end coz my bro managed to get the Glee dvds for a dirt cheap price from 'you-know-where' *winkwink*
Comes in Vol 1 and Vol 2, StarWorld just finished televising Vol 1 (4 episodes) and based on all my friends/aquaintances' FB status, they're hooked on it lor! Next week starting Vol 2 --> bestest! Must watch yah :D
Some critics compared it to HighSchool Musical, but i think it WAYYY surpasses it in terms of story plot and star performance aye. Makes HighSchool Musical looked so pussy-whipped! Lol
Glee is bout an optimistic high school teacher whom tries to transform the school's Glee Club and inspire a group of ragtag performers to make it to the biggest competition of them all: Nationals.
McKinley High School's Glee Club used to be at the top of the show choir world, but years later, a series of scandals have turned it into a haven for misfits and social outcasts aka Loser-ville lah. Will Schuester the teacher, (Matthew Morrison, Broadway's "Hairspray") has offered to take on the Herculean task of restoring the Glee Club to its former glory.
But based on my opinion, what truely makes the show boomz straight to be so well-liked by everyone is the singing and musical performance they blend into the show's plot. They do lot's of mash up (mixing 2 totally different song into 1 fantastic musical wonder) and their broadway-like dancing while singing just makes you wanna stand up and join them in the sing and dance lah! For me at least! lol :D
Then there's the lead female singer, Rachel (Lea Michele). She has one hellva powerpack voice and she's on 23yrs old! She can easily belt out Celine Dion's songs without batting an eyelid lor...Bright blink blink future. God can be so unfair tsktsk
Oh, to get a better picture of what am saying, go YouTube and type in 'glee performances' and enjoyyyy!!! ^_^
