Well, I have officially caught the Glee Fever. And I've only seen two episodes now, the Lady Gaga-based and the one before that. They were quite enjoyable.
Maybe I'm understating things. I LOVED the last one, when the Glee Club decided to go Gaga. An amazing rendition of the song "Bad Romance" finished off a spectacular episode chock full of emotion. From Kurt's struggle with judgemental football players to Rachel's confrontation with her discovered birth mother, tissues would have been required (if I was a softie, which I ususally am).
A definate breath-taker moment was when Burt (Kurt's father haha) valiantly stood up for his son against Finn, who was being a complete jerk in my opinion. I mean, Kurt was just trying to impress him. The room he designed was AMAZING. (Although, I am a girl, so that might explain my admiration.) Burt's beat-down of Finn had me cheering. Go Dad! Kurt's reaction to that whole scenario had me choking up. Poor Kurt!
Rachel's problems wit her new-found mother had me in deep thought. Of course it would have been nice if Shelby (Rachel's birth mom) and Rachel could just become one big happy family like Shelby wanted, but then reality knocked down the door. Rachel and Shelby have been apart for too long. They don't know or understand each other. There was bound to be problems, and it seems that it's too much for Shelby, because what do you think she does? She runs off! Puts even more space between her and Rachel and backs away from any chance for the moment of peace. Nice, Mom. Very nice. There goes the hope.
The Twlight references were hilarious, too. The paranoid principal was a definate stereotype for any misunderstanding parents!
