Is there seriously no thread for Glee here?!
My God, I love this show. Even if it is, in many ways, formulaic and predictable, it makes me laugh hysterically and I love the covers. Plus, they do--on occasion--manage to throw me a real curveball. Like, (SPOILER) Kurt's dad actually accepting that his son is gay (SPOILER)...it made me think of how hard it was for me and many of my friends, growing up, to accept our sexuality and feel comfortable in our own skin, mostly due to the lack of support. Kurt and his dad are pretty much my favorite characters.
Although, I gotta say, I am getting a LITTLE sick of the creators sticking their head up Lea Michele's ass. I say this constantly: Lea has a beautiful voice and she's very talented, but there are 11 other kids in the Glee Club, and several other talented singers, so UTILIZE THEM! Don't just do one "very special episode" with each one, then focus mainly on Lea and two or three other characters! Utilize their talent! And I have to add that, while pretty, Lea's voice is a bit overrated...I think a lot of belting just about impresses everybody, but as a huge fan of musical theater and Bollywood, I have to tell you that I greatly prefer emotion over a big belt voice, if I have to choose between the two.
Again, Lea Michele is a lovely girl with a lovely voice; it's the creators that are annoying me. I mean, every time Rachel has a hissyfit and acts like a brat, everybody else acts like she has a valid point and kow-tows to her. VERY annoying, and as you can tell by my ranting, it's kind of ruining the show for me.
BUT ANYWAY. LOL! So, any other Gleeks here?
And can I get a hollah at my girl Sue Sylvester? "You'd better watch out, or your husband's gonna get snatched by a ginger pygmy with eyes like a bushbaby." OMFG, classic!
