Episode 47 - You Gave Me a Dead Pig for Christmas? (3x08: Hold On to Sixteen & 3x09: Extraordinary Merry Christmas)

January 13, 2021 • Season 3 • Episode 6

Merry belated Christmas and happy Sectionals!

This week we talk about two episodes who should be much stronger given its individual parts. In 3x08: "Hold on to Sixteen", the New Directions face off against the Trouble Tones, Quinn confronts Shelby, and Lindsay Pearce returns. And in 3x09: "Extraordinary Merry Christmas", the Glee club puts on a Christmas special with some of the strongest wit and out-of-the-box thinking the show has done thus far. But both episodes end up falling apart. Like Lea Michele's hair post-partum.
