I was wondering if Glee was technically a musical. If you need "spontaneous song" or out of context musical numbers to be a musical, then it's not. -- nm

It bugs me that some people wouldn't even give it a chance because they label it "a musical". - musubi May 21, 13:12 1
- you can add me in there, although I might give it one chance (in September). -- nm - JaxSean May 21, 13:20
I haven't seen it, but if a character sings in a situation where their friends would consider them deranged in real life, it's a musical. -- nm - Max May 21, 12:53 4
- so, your life is a musical? -- nm - loosilu May 21, 12:57 2
  - I wish my life were a musical. -- nm - Dano May 21, 12:57 1
    - It can be. If you just... TRY! ~OOOOOOOH, if my LIIIIFE were only a musicaaaaal!~ -- nm - con_carne May 21, 12:58
- Then it's not. Though I suppose some people's friends might consider them deranged for joining glee club. -- nm - Dano May 21, 12:55
yeah, the musical numbers aren't spontaneous. They're very deliberate. - Callisto May 21, 12:53
I've always considered musicals to be shows/movies where the songs move the plot, not just catchy dance numbers that are being performed as such - Cuzzin Todd May 21, 12:53
Cop Rock was better. -- nm - CrankYanker May 21, 12:53
Pixie called it that, but by your definition it is not. -- nm - Stacy is in awe of TFox May 21, 12:52
