…and it’s unfortunate because at about this time last year, I really thought I would be.

I was impressed with the pilot. I grew up watching every episode of Saved by the Bell at least twice, so I love any show that ruins a kid’s expectations of high school. With the added element of singing, dancing, and a bunch of misfit kids and I thought it would be a show I’d love.

But after the 3rd episode, I had to call it quits. I could not find any way to justify watching it as a Christian, and especially as a parent. As funny as it is, as cute as the songs are, it makes a mockery of everything I believe. I tried again tonight to see if I had just been overreacting last fall. Nope.

That’s not to say that no Christian anywhere should watch it. There are some shows that I can watch that others can’t, and that’s okay. If you can be entertained by Glee and not cringe at its philosophy, then go on.  But as for me and my house, we’re just plain old geeks.
