Rocky Horror Glee In The Eyes Of A Virgin

I was completely unfamiliar with Rocky Horror, and that hardly changed after watching the Glee episode. I feel that you barely were introduced to the characters of RHPS. As far as any inside jokes go, I didn't understand them, though I could tell in some instances a RHPS joke was made, and I could understand that it was an allusion to it, and could understand that it was a part meant to be somewhat funny. While I could appreciate it, without the knowledge of RHPS, I could not fully appreciate it. As for character choice for the roles, I cannot say, based on the briefest of descriptions, I would say they were pretty good. Overall the episode was good, I enjoyed the music, some of the comedy (excluding the RHPS references), Sue's role (as usual), though like most episodes of season 2, it could have used a little more character development, and less regression (while it did propel the Karl plot, it did not adequately tie up the Emma/Shoe subplot, which is another issue that they have with this season so far, they have new material and do not extend it to its fullest, they just brush it off to the side).

Hey Ben's almighty followers! My name is Shaggy, and today I'm going to be talking about my most favorite subject. That is "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" but not just TRHPS, but Glee's adaptation of it. What are my thoughts: from a die hard Rocky Horror fan. 



Now, what did I think of it? Well, as a die hard fan, I was not impressed. Sure, the adaptations of the songs were great. Except for "Sweet Trasvestite." Oh how mad I was when they decided to make Mercedes Frank-N-Furter. I mean, I have no problem seeing as Frank is right between a man and a woman, but they should at least try to be accurate. Everyone else was fantastic, I love that Ms. Pillsbury is finally becoming less boring, and she had her own solo! Haha. And how I loved John Stamos on "Full House" now I have him on "Glee!" All in all, I was expecting way too much, but I guess they did pretty good in the eye of a virgin.
