So I've talked to several people who enjoy watching Glee, and my question to them is always, "Isn't it just a vehicle for twenty-somethings playing high schoolers performing terrible pop songs?"

The best response I've gotten thus far is that there was one episode where they sang Fleetwood Mac.*



*Please note that Fleetwood Mac also sucks.

That is sorta true but the show has also adressed alot of issues that teens face throughout the course of highschool such as teen pregnancy, bullying, being the outcast, poverty, and homosexuality.

I pray to god its for the 'music' bc the narrative and story lines SUCK. Thankfully my GF never really got into it so I was only forced to endure a episode or 2. It was actually really popular in the town I live when it first started ( its pretty much really popular everywhere now, i guess

) as one of the chicks on the show went to the same high school as I did and grew up in the same city. She was in my little brothers grade and I think was the homecoming queen or president of the school or something.

the girls are hot (they must all be 25 y/o right, not actually HS age?) and this is the best reason to watch. ya I am still posting in the glee thread

I have 2 degrees of separation from Will, long story.

On the show he looks like he is forced to wear a tie (which is how he is supposed to look), so I don't see how he is a style icon for anyone. Unless you want to look like you are forced to wear a tie.

if you dress boisterously you might attract certain girls but you'll also turn off others

not all girls are into dudes who dress boisterously

Disagree. Hot girls may make a bad show vaguely tolerable, but they do not constitute a reason to watch a bad show in and of themselves. Claiming hot girls is a form of apologism as weak as "the show has also adressed alot of issues that teens face throughout the course of highschool".

If you watch the show, you watch it because you enjoy flimsy, hackneyed plots that serve mostly to lead up to performances of terrible pop songs, and you enjoy the performances of terrible pop songs.

This is a really good point. Particularly in college, dressing like a jackass will attract attention. Attention will get you conversations with girls, even though there's a decent chance they'll be corny and attention-seeking as well.

There was a decent discussion of "peacocking" in another thread, and I think wearing an unnecessary and incongruous necktie is a fair example of this. (see also: UrbanAesthetics)
