Hello, my name is Anna Beth, and I'm a Glee-aholic. Unabashedly, I can admit that I love this TV show. As a band, choir and theatre nerd throughout high school, I find this satire oddly familiar and comforting; I feel at home with this show. Thanks to movie musicals and a love of Broadway, that "let's-put-on-a-show-and-make-everything-better" mentality has been ingrained in me. I love nothing more than, if things are at their worst, we can make it better by singing and dancing it out.
I've been with this show from the very beginning. I feel like I share a small part in its success. I've bought the music, I've watched every episode, and I've written about ad nauseam on Facebook (likely to the chagrin of friends who aren't fans). Baby drama, Beyonce, and blue slushies are the ingredients in this show's magic formula, and I've waited with bated breath since December for the show to come back.
However, with my beloved show about to return, I can't help but hope that it can live up to my (and America's) expectations. Since the show went on hiatus, there has not been a week where a spoiler, promo or juicy tidbit hasn't been released. I think it's a good technique to make sure no one forgets about Glee, but I just hope that it won't disappoint. Yet, can it let us down? I mean, Idina Menzel and Neil Patrick Harris are going to guest star? And there's going to be a Madonna episode (with Rachel singing "Like A Prayer"... amazing!)? AND, Mr. Schue and Emma are going to be together? I, for one, can't wait.
I just hope that this won't be like a Christmas where you asked Santa for a pony and you got socks instead. Dear Glee, be the pony, please!
