On Glee

Yglesias » ‘Glee’ Has a Down Syndrome Problem:
"If Glee was just a stupid dramedy about stock high school characters it would be banal, but not offensive. The fact that it is a stupid dramedy about stock high school characters that also includes ear splittingly-bad mashups sung by tone deaf automatons who couldn't sing in tune in the actual world if you replaced their vocal chords with fixed length piano wire is what makes Glee so pernicious."

I have never had the urge to watch Glee but whenever I have seen clips from it this was about my reaction to the "music" as well.
