The Glee Project: Songs and Children Crying

Okay, so they're not really children.  I think the youngest person on this competition to be on Glee was 18 or so.  Still, they'll be playing children (if they win), so it's sort of the same thing, right?

It's not all sad tears, though!  There are plenty of happy moments that threaten to make my shriveled heart grow three sizes.

There are sweet surprises...

She's so goddamn cute.  Just look at her.

...rousing musical numbers...

Get it girl!

...and swingsets at proms.

Okay, I don't really get that one, but it looked fun for them.

The ultimate goal is to get a seven-episode guest-starring role on Glee (another guilty pleasure of mine that will surely show up on this blog at some point), and though it's heartbreaking to see most of the contestants' dreams get shattered, it's (sorta) worth it to see someone win.

Because sometimes all you need in life is a lame part written on a show already so convoluted that adding a poorly-developed character is really a dumb decision.

Oh well, the music's good.
