April had one of my favorite lines also, something like "His eye went all funny and he had a stroke right in front of me!"

"I love him because he's really the only character that is not 2D (Does that make sense?). Everyone is so one note, but Kurt has a lot more depth than anyone else due to his home life and such. I don't know. Something about his character.....I just love him."
Same <3 and there's just something about Chris Colfer's acting that I just.. connect with! One flash of his *sad face* and I'm like.. ready to get teary eyed haha. There's something so real and raw about it.
But yeah, I also think the character itself has been developed so beautifully. The only reason "stereotypical" characters can be dangerous is because if they're not developed enough, they're hard to connect with and then that can reinforce the idea that those stereotypes are bad.
But with Kurt, between the fleshed out writing and Chris's sensitive portrayal, you really don't get that. Or at least I sure don't. I think it actually is a good thing, because it can help people get PAST those stereotypes, or realize they're not so bad after all, rather than trying to convince people the stereotypes don't exist at all, which just isn't the case :)
Well, to be fair, EVERY character on that show is one big stereotype.

^yup! And Kurt's is actually the most effective because he's the best developed :) (well, he and maybe Quinn)
Oh, and as for for this week's Kurt storyline in particular: Yeah, he probably took it a bit far with the Finn doting haha. But I DID feel so much for him in the end. It was definitely selfish of him to ask his dad to break off something he himself created just because it backfired on him, but I like to think he probably realized that in the end. And.. it DID backfire on him in a major way. I mean, he jumped into the whole thing just expecting to be able to spend more time with Finn, and instead everyone else ended up getting something positive out of the arrangement and Kurt got left out in the cold And because he did do it out of selfish motivations, he can't even rightfully be angry at anyone else for it. He may have been selfish, but it's still a pretty sucky situation to be in regardless. And I mean, it's not like his selfishness was ever meant to hurt anyone or anything.
So yeah, I really felt for him
I think the reason I like Kurt so much is because I like Chris so much. I was watching him on Ellen today and I just wanted to kiss him on the mouth and hold him, to quote Frank from 30 Rock, lol.
And I was just commenting to my friends that Quinn has totally been left in the dark so far, story wise...
I think that is because she is a major part of the final episodes.

I love Brittany's dead pan line readings.
I thought you guys would enjoy this. It's done from the prospective of Quinn.

I know it was already known but it's been confirmed that Kurt will sing "Rose's Turn" on the may 18th episode. So excited!
Hello!
I have to say I'm loving Glee so far, but I didn't love "Home". I wanted to echo that I like Kurt's voice better when he's singing low.
My favorite line from Glee ever:
"I hate Duke like I hate the Nazis."
It will be my slogan for basketball season when it starts in November.
Bad Reputation airs tonight!

Anyone else hear this? :

Apparently it was supposed to be where "Hello" was in "Hello". I think this is more fun to listen to but "Hello" probably worked better in the context of the show.
Eeeeeep, Total Eclipse of the Heart, one of my fav songs ever. Can't wait!
The Run Joey Run video was awesomely hilarious with all its terrible movie maker effects.
I loved the video too. So funny.
Also loved how Sue took advantage of her internet infamy (and got to sing).
Loved Run Joey Run!
and
"Will, I might buy a diaper for your chin, cause it looks like a baby's ass!"
Our fingerprints don't fade from the lives we touch.
Puppies are babies in fur coats.
Tinfoil...The Terrorizing Terminator
Great awesome episode.
I will ignore the memory of my future husband singing Ice Ice Baby to focus on the whole crew getting cute dancing moments.
Will is a slut, but my slut. I know Emma is a bit irrational but I think even she would have more sense than to just believe Sue...but that's me over reaching again.
LOVED LOVED LOVED any moment with Puck tonight. Good to hear him sing again and *swoon* we all know my thing for hot men in wifebeaters! never heard Run joey Run before but it was funny video. Loved the boys getting pissed at her.
Groff was cute all night.
I loved this episode as well. Brittany once again killed me with her dumbness. What I don't understand though why Kurt and the others weren't willing to trust her at first because didn't she film the Single Ladies thing with Kurt and Tina earlier in the season?
that was before she outted herself as Sue's mole during Sectionals

Loooved tonight's episode!! It was actually by far the best episode of the back 9 so far I think. And I'm not even one of the people who was hating the first 3 episodes! haha. But it just kind of felt like the first three, storyline wise, were getting everything up and running again, and establishing the new story lines for the show, and now they're really working on progressing and developing things.
Plus, they had a fun theme for the episode that wasn't hammering the audience over the head with one specific message! It was just like.. they had an assignment for the class and that assignment fell naturally in place with the other things going on :)
But yeah, loved Sue, loved Emma standing up for herself (even though in fairness what Will did really wasn't that horrible- he made out with Shelby while he and Emma were supposed to be taking things slow- not a NICE move, but I wouldn't quite call him a total slut for it haha. But still, it wasn't too great of him and it was nice to see Emma get some backbone in calling him out on it).
And the Run Joey Run video was HILARIOUS bahaha But even though I still don't trust Jesse really, his hurt in the end did seem pretty genuine, and I felt kind of bad for him. Darn you Groff for always being so lovable even when the character's untrustworthy! :P But yeah, basically Groff is adorable. And Rachel DID mess up.
Has that Fiddler on the Roof revival poster always been on Rachel's wall? I just noticed it tonight. Wasn't Lea in that production?
The Run Joey Run video was awesome. As was the video with Olivia Newton John and Sue. Loved last night.
CATS I don't know about the poster but I noticed the Rock of Ages and Wicked playbills on it too.
Loved Puck doing a zoolander with the Phantom Mask.
