Things I enjoyed

Rachel and Finn after "Like a Virgin." I loved that they both lied about going through with it. And especially that Rachel lied that she had while Finn lied that he hadn't.
Which I guess I should also mention that I really liked the choreography or maybe more importantly the cinematography of "Like a Virgin". I liked all the cutting from one couple to another and the fact that they were all doing the same things. Even if it was just in their heads.
Loved Kurt and Mercedes getting a ~~solo~~ duet with the cheerios. As well as their glimpse into hurt!Sue, even if some of it seemed like she was putting them on.
Loved the Meta commentary in glee club: "And you always just trot me out to wail on the last note of the song. That's not okay" Oh! Mercedes.
And finally loved, loved, loved feminist!Quinn. "Women still make seventy cents to every dollar men make. That attitude begins in high school." I particularly love it since Quinn is portrayed generally as a character with rather conservative values.

Things I didn't enjoy so much

Mostly this category boils down to the fact that I'm not wild about the increase in musical numbers. Before, I would have said I was watching the show for the songs, but it turns out I need there to be actual plot connecting those songs. By the third musical number I was actually annoyed.
That medley with Rachel and Finn running around the hallways -- totally not needed, and to my view not particularly well done. Mostly I was there going "did you really just pull all those books off the shelves in the Library? Don't do that!"
I thought the girls hair for the first number was not particularly flattering for the majority of the actresses in the number. I'm sure it was a Madonna hairstyle they were re-creating but ugh.
I've had enough of Jesse's swarminess and he's only been on for two episodes.
Really? They got a full choir to come to their glee club show for back up? Really?
