I think the extent of the impact will be that more glee-types will get slushied IRL. -- nm - ty97 Feb 10, 12:11
I'm with Hunting on this. Kinda depends on how long it lasts. Also, I've heard rumors that the plan is to graduate all these kids - Jim Feb 10, 12:07 12
- That's the downside of making school shows with students as the main characters. - Inigo Feb 10, 12:09 11
  - UK Skins is so successful with this. -- nm - Amy Feb 10, 12:14
  - *pours a 40 for Friday Night Lights* - Will Hunting Feb 10, 12:10 9
    - though be honest - if someone said during S1 that they'd get 5 seasons out of it, you'd have said "I'll take it" in a second. -- nm - Reagen Feb 10, 12:12 3
      - True. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 10, 12:14
      - Gilmore Girls was the same way in terms of way long odds to last 100 episodes. -- nm - David Feb 10, 12:13 1
        
        It helps that NBC is looking up at the old WB ratings now. -- nm - Reagen Feb 10, 12:14
    - I thought FNL has done a very good job of transitioning in and out characters -- nm - oblique Feb 10, 12:11 4
      - FNL is beyond superduper....but no one watched. - Will Hunting Feb 10, 12:13 2
        
        Hell, it got canceled from ABC Family. That's hard to do. -- nm - David Feb 10, 12:14 1
        
        Things I found out, ABC Family is still showing re-runs of Who's Line (which is a guaranteed watch for me) -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 10, 12:15
      - They have, but I never got over losing Tyra. -- nm - David Feb 10, 12:13
totally different genre but maybe like 24, with a few diehards and everyone else embarassed to admit they're still watching. -- nm - Reagen Feb 10, 12:07
it already boosts download sales for the songs featured each week and concert tours with the cast -- nm - cupixie Feb 10, 12:05
I think it will be fondly remembered for its originality but deemed as a soap opera-ish like Melrose Place and 90210. -- nm - David Feb 10, 12:05
I suppose it will trigger a TV musical movement the way Moulin Rouge and Chicago ushered in a movie musical resurgance. Bring back Cop Rock! -- nm - Dr.Vermin Feb 10, 12:03
zero impact? -- nm - decline Feb 10, 12:02
I'm a little surprised karaoke hasn't become more of a group fad. -- nm - Max Feb 10, 12:02 5
- All the teens and tweens I know *love* it, but, it's like Twilight. It's not really giving us anything new. -- nm - Amy Feb 10, 12:07 4
  - Ricky on MSCL might have been the first, but Kurt is the most unapologetic gay teen on network TV yet -- nm - cupixie Feb 10, 12:09 2
    - But a lot of younger teens don't even blink at that anymore. They might not like it, but it's not shocking. -- nm - Amy Feb 10, 12:13 1
      - but for network television, it's a huge step -- nm - cupixie Feb 10, 12:14
  - I just got a notice for a presale for the Glee tour. I think I will be a hero at home and take my teen. -- nm - pmb Feb 10, 12:08
I may just have to break into song at tonight's meeting, just to see what happens. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 12:02 3
- which tenant are you professing your unrequited love to? - Epiphany Feb 10, 12:04 2
  - No no no, this is a board of directors. - Spawn Feb 10, 12:08 1
    - heh -- nm - Epiphany Feb 10, 12:10
Depends imo. If it lasts 5 years...it could be huge. If it fizzles like I expect... - Will Hunting Feb 10, 12:02
