Glee gives me constant whiplash, because sometimes I'm like UGH SHOW I HATE YOU AND THE THINGS YOU DO (hi "Funk") and I think maaaaybe I'm overreating a little bit and I should just chill and enjoy the show for the hot mess that it is. Other times, I know I'm not being nearly critical enough (like with this episode, where I can acknowledge the serious issues going on but I don't care! La la la la look at these kids and their precious faces!).
the heart behind everything that happened in the wedding was sweet and well-intentioned
I think this is why I'm not nearly as annoyed by the Kurt Show as I should be. I feel like the characters were coming from a genuine place, even if the writers were being ridiculous. Also, each individual scene in the episode involving Kurt were fine on their own (like, I literally did a seal clap when Kurt and Finn started dancing together despite the problematic issues of that entire number and its motivations), just taken together there was Kurt Overload. Overall this episode (and season) is making me feel strange because I should be drinking the haterade with everyone and yet... I find myself becoming defensive of Kurt (in my brain, obviously, because I refuse to fight with gleeks). What is this I don't even. He's never been my favourite! I should be annoyed! Too many feelings! I think I have Glee Stockholm Syndrome. Mostly, I just get peeved at people who bitch about Chris/Kurt (and Lea/Rachel) getting too much airtime... and yet the person they would give a ton of airtime and songs to is Dianna/Quinn /irrational crazy person.
I really just don't know where they are going with Sam. Dumb jock? Cute secret nerd? Pointless character is pointless. It doesn't help that I don't care at all about Quinn re-ascending the high school hierarchy. He's taking screentime away from Finn and Puck (WHO I DON'T EVEN LIKE). Also promise rings are gross.
I don't really care about the motivations behind a possible Kurt-Rachel friendship, I just need it to happen (and hopefully not disappear if they need conflict again). I am curious about why Rachel is so smiley happy for him at Sectionals, judging by her reaction to his leaving at the end of "Furt". I'm guessing by the promo that they have some kind of heart-to-heart (involving singing "Don't Cry for Me Argentina"!), which would please me greatly.
Why why why why do I have so many thinky-thoughts about this show? It's obscene. OBSCENE. I apologize.
