Glee 2x19

[erilyn]

Not a huge amount to say about this episode - it was pretty good, and the music was good (I wasn't familiar with all the Fleetwood Mac songs beforehand - bad me!)

Fairly entertaining, though I'm getting annoyed with Brittany - if she's that stupid, I'm grossed out by her being in a relationship with anyone, and if she's not, she should have to take some damn responsibility for her actions. I continue to adore Santana (loved the overalls).

Kinda amused how everyone so readily jumped to the conclusion that Sam and Kurt were fucking, and their main talking point was chiding Kurt for cheating on Blaine (sweet!), and not "since when is Sam queer?", though way to assume your bff is a cheating bastard, Mercedes. I thought Chord Overstreet did okay with the dramatic stuff - not great, but better than some people on Glee have managed, though crying is not his strong suit. I'd like to see more Kurt and Sam, it'd be nice to see Kurt spend some time with a straight guy who isn't Finn (yeah, I'm not a Sam/Kurt true believer).

Of course, the big unanswered question was what was Kurt doing at Dalton at night, to see Sam delivering pizza there? Was he boarding at the damn school after all? Or visiting Blaine? In which case, is Blaine boarding, and how late was Kurt there, hmmm? ;)

I feel sorry for Jane Lynch, with how lame Sue's storylines have gotten.

Can we haz prom nao?

Oh wow, I just saw the 90 sec ad that Google Chrome ran for the It Gets Better Project during Glee ;___;

I really liked the episode, but I was pissed at Artie. He had every right to be pissed off about being cheated on, but he's just continually a misogynist shit all over the place when he opens his mouth and the fact that he needs his girlfriend to make him feel good about himself, while not seeming to feel responsibility to do the same for her bothers me on so many levels that I can't even.

Artie can go fuck himself. If he'd just been upset about the cheating, yeah, totally understandable, but his speech about not coping if anyone else could provide for any of her needs (whatever the hell he was going on about) was bizarre and offensive.

He seems like he wants to be with someone who is creepily dependent on him, but not even like he wants to be codependent with the other person. He just wants to be the only person they care about and rely on and that is just unhealthy and gross. I have hated him for a long time because of the way he treated Tina and the way he talks about women, but this really took it to a new level. I may have been yelling LEAVE BRITTANY ALONE >>>>:( at my tv. I don't think Brittany or Santana are innocent in this whole situation, but the misogyny he expresses takes him beyond the level of tolerable and lolzy bad into the territory of OMG I ACTUALLY HATE YOU. Britt has definitely done some questionable things and Santana can be awful, but they both have redeeming qualities that make me like them. He doesn't have a single one. I think he's the only member of the Glee club that I actually hate. (unless Will counts, because Will definitely does ACT like a stupid teenager >>>>>:( )

They've pretty much destroyed Artie this season (though the seeds were there last year), he is so unlikeable and unsympathetic.

Oh lord, Will is such a waste of space - he should exist only to facilitate the kids' storylines, cause the ones centred on him are just such a waste of time.

Yeah, we pretty much yell at Will to get off the screen every time he turns up. Sometimes I feel bad for my neighbors during Glee. /o\

I loved Sam's storyline, but I am the easiest for sad people and wanting to smoosh them :(( UNLESS THEY ARE ARTIE AND ARE BEING LITTLE SHITS >:(

I saw that commercial too right after the ep, and I LOVE IT SO. :DDDDDD

Tangentially - I love my sister, she sent me an email at work this morning, as she watched Glee after I talked to her last night, and was all "it was an okay ep, but not enough Kurt!"

I'd like to see friendshippy scenes between Sam and Kurt, and Sam and Quinn (if she apologies about a thousand times for cheating on him). I'm so over all the (heterosexual) pairings on the show, needs to focus on friendships and different characters interacting and singing together who don't normally (like I was really shocked in a way that this ep had the first Finn/Quinn duet!)

Thanks for linking to that ad; I hadn't seen it <3

I've seen people complaining on the interwebs (what a shock) that it lessens the campaign by Google using it to advertise their own products, but a) this is letting so many many more people be exposed to it, and b) a MAJOR corporation is so openly allying themselves with a LGBT cause. I can't see where there's anything to complain about there.
