Nice! Not to be an ass, but I'm glad Samuel Larsen (Joe) wasn't promoted. His introduction was handled pretty badly (much like Rory's), and he's been underused since. He even missed half of the season! Just write him out.
ReplyDeleteWould they have enough Glee club members if they write him off? Honestly I don't have any interest in any of them besides Alex Newell. They need to focus on the New York storylines. Most of the original cast gone now...
ReplyDeleteYay for Alex! Always thought he should have won Season 1 of TGP but now he's getting the last laugh.
ReplyDeleteI happy for Alex and Blake, both great addition to the cast, so I like Kitty and Marley too. Now Jacob is worth because his good voice, but the little Pukerman was no star to be a leading actor.
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't like Alex. He is an arrogant jerk.
ReplyDeleteDisappointed they didn't give the character of Sam another go. They didn't even use him last season! >_>"
ReplyDeleteThis show is a stinking mess.
ReplyDeleteHe was already a regular las season ;)
ReplyDeleteWait they wernt regulars? They were in every episode ahha.
ReplyDeleteI don't get the appeal for the NY side of the show. I'd rather have a sweet little romantic affair between Marley, Jake and Ryder, than the highly unlikely stories from Rachel & Co.
ReplyDeleteDitto, Alex showed himself to be a really quite awful person on TGP, Blake seemed the exact opposite though and I'm really enjoying him in the series
ReplyDeleteSantana was in every episode in season 1, but Naya wasn't a regular back then, same thing for Brittany (who was in every episode except the pilot) but Heather wasn't a regular. And Ryder, Wade/Unique and Kitty was certainly not in every episode of season 4. I'm not sure Marley and Jake were either.
ReplyDeleteI think the poster meant Sam the actor (Samuel Larsen who played Joe) and not Sam the character, Chord was a regular for season 4, and Sam was used quite a lot, but Samuel was not a regular, and Joe didn't get any storylines, he was pretty much there so that the club would have enough members.
ReplyDeleteYes, thanks! I didn't word my comment clearly enough. I did indeed mean Samuel Larsen being used as a prop in the background.
ReplyDeleteI Think It Is About Time Glee Would Finish It Is Getting Old.
ReplyDeleteI was talking more about Kitty/Marley/Jake. They were a big focus on this season. Santana and brittany in season 1 were background pretty girls.
ReplyDeleteI thought being a regular was to secure your main cast isnt going to go away for an other tv show or movie cause they are under contract. That's why I'm surprised those wernt.
Anyway, I've alwas found glee's decision with this a little weird.
