    They sang "feed the world"...at a soup kitchen. Oh my GOD.

    They need to decide about Sue. Do we feel sorry for her? Do we hate her? How is she so cruel one minute and a saint the next?

    Not a great episode. I enjoyed the very beginning of the broadcast with Blaine and Kurt though.

    Really disappointed in this episode, I cringed all the way through the whole cheesy black and white 60s "sketch" thing, though I did smile at the Star Wars references.

    I wanted to kick Artie for coming across like an a$$hole - and I love Artie! :(

    Rory's rendition of "Blue Christmas" was great - he is a real crooner.

    They edited out Kurt & Blaine couple scenes and Santana's version of "Santa, Baby" (which according to my 15 year old Gleek daughter will be added as extras on the Season 3 DVD boxset :mad: )

    But nothing will EVER beat the original version of "Feed the World".

    Worst. Glee. Ever.

    Truly horrible, no redeeming features. I watch for the comedy, for the irreverance, for Brittney and Sue's one liners, which were all absent. It was one long sentimental, cringe-inducing cliche. Very very bad, complacent television. The bit where Rory started to read from the bible - give me a break! I literally couldn't physically watch any more.

    God that was dreadful! I watched "Let It Snow" in their TV thing and skipped the rest, it was so horrendously cringey. I couldn't stand listening to the stupid voices they were putting on! Worst episode yet.

    I thought it was pretty good. I loved the tv special they did, it was a great send up of the old 1950's & 60's specials that used to run. It was pretty much note perfect.

    While the Rory reading the Bible thing was a bit cringey, apparently that's the exact thing that happens in the Charlie Brown Christmas Special, which is an institution in the US, much like how the whole Grinch story was woven into the Christmas episode last year.

    I did however think that singing "Feed the World" to a room full of homeless people was a TAD insensitive, especially considering how much they were all grinning and smiling so much while singing "The clanging chimes of DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM"... :rolleyes:

    Oh, and Rachel demanding Christmas presents even though she's Jewish pissed me off.

    A very poor episode, the worst by a long way of the season so far. I found the xmas tv special cringeworthy, I thought it would never end. Rory is a pretty useless character, it looks like they have no idea whatsoever to do with him. Sue is a bit overall place this, still enjoy her oneliners though. It seems like the adult cast are being pushed aside this year.
