This is fascinating. It may yet inspire a fic…

I completely agree with you. I’m excited for where they can go with a time jump, and I trust that Ryan Murphy will deliver a brilliant and moving end to the story.

I wouldn't have been so positive about that before the NYC arc started, but I've been pleased with the last two episodes and the preview for tonight's is so creative. From a writing point of view, the show is just so much better. The scenes are more engaging because they are twice as long. ;-) I don't get Lima whiplash anymore and we can SEE the characters work on their issues and problems. 

I'm excited because Ryan & Brad are excited about the current episodes, so that form will continue.  A smaller core cast with our favorites gives me more of what I love about NYC. 

@manningstar said: I wasn’t happy at first, but I’m glad you’re sending positivity about this out there because it’s really helping me change my attitude about it.

Happy I could help! LOL I really don't see anything "bad" about it (granted I'm not a Klainer so I'm not fearing another mid-arc, temporary break-up.  If it happens, it happens.)

I am looking at other things: if Kurt is gone for a few episodes (which hasn't even been confirmed yet) there's got to be a Colfer reason, right? ;-) I don't think Chris will be gone for long, if at all. He's a big draw for the show. I think Peter Pan Live is a possibility, with network loyalty not being an issue (Colfer's doing TV Land's Hot in Cleveland this week - yay! - so doing a one-off for NBC is not out of the picture). And Ryan has asked him to write again! and possibly direct?!? This is awesome news!

I've also seen some really interesting & plausible speculation on what S6 could contain, and it is fascinating to think of the possibilities.  The time jump excites me because they will be post-college ADULTS! So many more story possibilities.  Look at what we've gotten post-high school. :-D Sex, STDs, acknowledgment of a strapping Kurt!

You are so sweet! I think you’re awesome, too!

I really liked the episode too. I was quite happy to ignore most of the little retcons, etc. I found Quinn and Brittany’s stories satisfying, too. And yes, Season 5 has been awesome. Especially all these episodes in a row!

Lovely meta. And I love everything you said about Will and Sam. I just rewatched the episode and my rage at this...
