He actually looks Glenn's way after the first line, but Glenn's not looking at him then. Do you think Joe is seeking approval in some basic way?

Maybe! I'll have to go watch it again and see if I can detect some more nuances. ;)

He used that line at every show.

I'd like to see a screenshot of this if possible. Also excuse my ignorance but what is 'Gooberesque'?

The song that Joe is singing when he talks about Hemingway and Hendrix writing songs and it didn't occur to him that they were dead

What song is that from?

If your looking at your reflection at the bottom of a well ???

It's the Confessor SC!!! That song is so awesome!!!

Sorry FP, I forget that folks not familiar with our TV shows here in the states won't know what I'm talking about.

Goober was a character in the popular TV series, The Andy Griffith Show (1960-1968. ) The look Joe gives Glenn reminded me of Goober.

Someone else will have to grab the screen cap. My bluray disc won't play in my laptop, and I'm sure my explanation of Gooberesque will mean nothing to you without the comparison.

I just did these screen caps very quickly. I hope I caught some part of what PM is referring to, especially the last two.

Thanks for doing those GL! The part I'm talking about is just a little later, after the second line. I took a picture of my TV screen. It's difficult to see what I'm talking about by just this cap, but you get the gist of it.

The fourth of GL"s caps shows the first time Joe looks at Glenn, but Glenn has his eyes closed. The second time (my cap) they make eye contact and Joe gives that sideways glance and half wink. I can almost hear him saying "How am I doing, Boss?"
