Kevin & Bean’s DJ Omar Khan Really Hates Glee

Last night on FOX, Glee returned! Since it’s one of my personal favorites, I couldn’t have been more excited about this! It’s fun, charming, snarky, tongue-in-cheek, and something that we don’t generally see on TV. Well here at KROQ, there’s one person in particular who doesn’t agree.
This morning on the Kevin & Bean show, DJ Omar Khan tried to convince the crew that the show blows!
Click more to see how it all went down!

Omar: I am the only guy on the show – the only voice of reason on the show because all you guys are bad.
Kevin: Concerning…?
Omar: Glee. I know it’s a phenomenon, people love it, but, ok, Bean I can understand because he’s a 13-year-old girl. Dave, 13-year-old girl. Lisa, obviously because of musicals and all that B.S., and she watches bad TV. Alex and Cleo, they’re girls. Ok, but Kevin, really? Really?!
Kevin: I can see that. It isn’t really my type, but it’s pretty good!
Omar: It’s not!
Bean: Ralph too, by the way. Ralph loves Glee just as much as the rest of us.
Omar: It’s not because I didn’t give it a shot, or I didn’t watch it. I did watch it because Kanye West was one of the music things that they did on the first episode and it was horrible! So yesterday we had the Asian chick on so I had to pull clips from last night’s show for her. So my hate got re-ignited. I was like “oh my God! Are you guys kidding me?! You guys are effing with me, right?”
Kevin: So then he came into the office afterwards and starts screaming at us about Glee. What’s your problem?
Omar: It’s awful writing. Everything’s bad.
Lisa: It’s a cheesy.
Omar: Yeah. It’s way cheesy! So I go pull some clips that will describe it. Ok, I’m gonna spend a half hour pulling clips, so whatever. In the first minute of one of the first episodes, this happens:
Rachel Berry (Lea Michele): “You’re so chivalrous.”
Finn Hudson (Cory Monteith): “Thanks! That’s a good thing, right?”
Omar: Ooooh, I’m so dumb! Well, you don’t know what chivalrous means, ok? 20 seconds in, this happens:
Mercedes Jones (Amber Riley): “Pretty fly for a white guy!”
Mr. Schuester (Matthew Morrison): “Oh, thank you. Thank you.”
Omar: It’s a black chick being all black. “Yeah, you’re pretty fly for a white guy!” Whatever. And this right here:
Mr. Schuester: “Good morning Kurt.”
Puck (Mark Salling): “Buenos nachos, Mr. Schue.”
Omar: Oooooh, buenos nachos everyone!
Kevin: That’s indefensible, but…
Omar: But NOTHING! The whole show’s like that!

Kevin: As part of a bigger picture, it all kind of ties together.
Omar: No. And they have this bad music everywhere [as the big-band type of score]. It’s not the 20′s, ok? Are you kidding me? Glen Miller and the orchestra called, THEY WANT THEIR SONG BACK! Are you kidding me?! And this annoying stuff that happens throughout the goddamn show [plays a capella do-do-do singing]. C’mon!!!
Kevin: That does happen a lot.
Omar: Kevin. Kevin! Come back! Come back! Seriously! Talk about cheesy lines? Check this out:
Rachel: “Jesse and I might not be true love, but what if we are? I know who I am. How many chances at this am I gonna get?”
Omar: Aaaaaagh! Are you KIDDING me?! C’MON! WHY DO YOU GUYS LOVE THIS SHOW???
Lisa: That’s what high school kids do!
Kevin: First of all, stop jumping up and down! Second of all, OJ got off murder because you don’t take the whole picture all together – you take a little snippet and you say, “how could this be? How could that be?” That’s what you’re doing with this show.
Omar: No. You know what was on last night? LOST! Great episode! C’mon! It was so awesome.
Kevin: I fell asleep during that. I’m quite positive that happened.

Bean: I hate to say this, but I thought I liked Glee, but I think Omar just turned me off to it.
Kevin: The clips that he’s bringing in, there’s no defense for. That’s true.
Omar: Ok, ok, check this out – big plot point in last night’s show, this happens:
Mr. Schuester: “We need a new ‘hello’. Here’s your assignment for the week: Come up with a fresh number, but it has to have ‘hello’ in the song title.”
Omar: Ok, it has to have “hello” in the song title, so they work in Lionel Richie’s “Hello,” the Beatles’ “Hello Goodbye,” one of the biggest song of ALL FREAKIN’ TIME, and they do it poorly! You [to Kevin] hate American Idol. This is karaoke on effing TV, with Dancing With the Stars! That’s exactly what it is!
Bean: That’s a pretty good point.
Kevin: Except for, you have to admit, these are pretty good singers.
Omar: No! It’s all studio work dude!
Lisa: They all sing it!
Omar: That’s fine. Whatever. If all those dudes on American Idol are taken to the studio…
Kevin: That wouldn’t help ‘em.
Omar: It totally would! Absolutely!
Lisa: Most of these people have been on Broadway singing. They’re legit.
Omar: Ooooooh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh my God! Oh! I’m in! I love this show now! Oh my God!
Lisa: I’m just saying they can sing!
Omar: So I gave it a chance and stuff, but the moment that really flipped me the hell out was during the second episode, the gay dude and the black chick were dating and the gay dude confesses and the chick was telling the gay dude something and they break into this:
Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer): “I’m in love with someone else.”
Mercedes: “Rachel?”
Kurt: “Yes.”
Omar: They start singing about her breaking a windshield. She broke a windshield and she breaks into song about this. Are you kidding?! My ass! Ok, this show hurts my ass! If this show let me take a dump on it, I wouldn’t take a dump on it! It’s that bad! Kevin, do you still like the show?
Kevin: I sorta do.
Omar: OH! C’MON!!!
Kevin: Let me just say, check out next week’s show. It’s all Madonna music. Check it out.
Omar: This is what’s gonna happen: White-man-fro-guy’s gonna go “ok, um, we need a song about vogue, so go write a ‘vogue’ song” or some BS like that and they’re gonna start working in all these songs. Or “we need something about Gaga, so let’s do a song about Gaga” because all these artists want their music on a popular show…
Kevin: I’ve seen the Madonna episode cause they sent over a screener. If you promise to watch it, I’ll shut my mouth about Glee if you don’t like it.
Omar: Ok. Can I bring clips and prove it to you that it sucks?
Kevin: Alright.
Omar: Alright. Deal!
Later in the show, this issue was revisited with Kevin Smith sitting in as “The Decider” to make the final call on whether or not Glee is a good show, or whether Omar needs to be put down. The final verdict?
Kevin Smith: I watched it last night with my kid. I loved it. It appealed to me on the level that in high school, I was not an athlete. I was not a mathlete. I was that guy.
So there you have it ladies and gentleman – Glee is awesome! Omar sucks!
UPDATED: I found an article where E! Online’s Answer Bitch covers this exact issue – “Is It OK To Hate Glee?“
The verdict?
“Most of us can identify with a high school experience, or being labeled as an uptight wannabe or jock, or dealing with an overly aggressive teacher, or simply joining an unpopular extracurricular activity. In other words, when it comes to the show’s appeal, Glee is America.
And if you hate Glee, or don’t get Glee, or can’t appreciate Glee, you have a problem with America.”
So in other words, Omar not only hates Glee, but Omar also hates America.

Glee is what pedophiles watch in between High School Musical sequels. I bet the recently out of work writers from Uglier than Sin Betty are clammering to get their campy scripts on to Glee producers.

, im gonna be honest, Glee is whats wrong with tv now, just brainwashing people into mediocrity, if i want a show that does covers of other peoples songs why dont i just hit a karaoke bar and see people do that without being plugged to a tv, the standards of show quality have dropped big time i guess this is good tv now adays, gotta agree with omar the singers arent that great for being “broadway” singers either
