140109- Little Women 5 years, 6 months ago Was watching ‘The Good Wife’ this weekend (because oh by the way that’s a really good show) and bam! Jonathan Coulton’s “Baby Got Back” stolen by ‘Glee’ story!

As JoCo says in the article, they did a good job telling the story pretty damn close to how it actually happened. And in his typically graceful way he explains his own lack of legal action by saying:
“One of the reasons I stopped pursuing [legal action] was, well, how do you define a win in this situation? I don’t really want to spend years going through litigation. I don’t really want this to be the new stage in my career where I’m this guy who’s fighting this legal battle for years. There was a point where I looked back and said, “Well, jeez, anybody over at Glee and Fox who has the capacity to feel embarrassed and ashamed has got to feel embarrassed and ashamed by now. It’s not just me saying they did this wrong thing. It’s everybody.” So that’s a good enough win for me.”
