The standard good episode for an episode of Glee has become an episode that doesn't forget about the characters and do something crazy. "Prom Queen" doesn't go too far out on a limb and ends up being a pleasant episode along those lines. With prom coming up, it exposes lots of feelings and the writers included most of the characters, without having too much nonsensical things at the same time.
Whose idea was it to bring back Jesse St. James? It was so bizarre how he magically popped up after everyone forgot about him. And after getting in a push fight with Finn (punches are for sissies), Jesse doesn't show up again. Did Jesse need to be there in order for Finn to show how much he cares about Rachel? Not really. Sue... I don't even want to talk about her.
Score: 8.6/10
