So says Robert Bianco, who complains about the recyled plots, rejuggled couples and an overexposed Sue Sylvester plaguing this season, says Robert Bianco. But, he notes, the music has also been a problem.

"'Glee' seems to have lost all interest in using music to advance the plot or define the characters. Worse, it has lost its ability to establish an emotional connection between song and singer, the kind that made Chris Colfer's October version of 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' so moving."
