ooc ~ 'Glee' airing in Spain!
Excitement, Glee airs here this week or the next. I don't get either of the TV channels airing it, so if anything, I'll try to catch it online for the potential hilarity of the dubs (Kurt had better sound like a girl). For now, I'm just keeping track of how Kurt is presented in Spanish media, as I'm really curious about that!
So far, there hasn't been much buzz about him. The articles deal mainly with the teacher characters, as well as the foursome of Finn, Rachel, Puck and Quinn. I have managed to find two mentions! Not too flattering, though . . .
A este grupo de adultos, se une una panda de jóvenes que van desde la inadaptada que se cree toda una estrella, Rachel, una niña irritante interpretada por una actriz experimentada en esto de los musicales de Broadway, Lea Michele. A ella se une Finn (Cory Monteith), que para no perder los estereotipos, es el capitán del equipo de fútbol. Su novia, Quinn (Dianna Agron), como no podía ser menos, es la capitana de las animadoras, aunque su reino no tardará en tambalearse. Un gay alocado con voz de soprano y que siempre va a la moda (Kurt, Chris Colfer), una afroamericana algo choni pero con una voz increíble (Mercedes, Amber Riley), el guaperas rebelde de turno (Noah, Mark Salling), una coreana un poco solitaria (Tina, Jenna Ushkowitz) y un chico en silla de ruedas (Artie, Kevin McHale).

"A silly gay with a soprano voice who always wears fashionable clothes." Silly gay. Silly gay. Silly gay!!!
The others are described as follows:
Rachel - misfit who believes herself to be a total star, an annoying little girl played by an actress with experience in these Broadway musical things.
Finn - so as not to avoid any stereotypes, he's the football team captain.
Quinn - Finn's girlfriend can't be outdone (Note: in the stereotype aspect), she's the cheerleader captain, though she'll stumble in her reign.
Mercedes - somewhat ghetto African American girl, but with an incredible voice.
Puck - the hot rebel, there always has to be one of these.
Tina - somewhat lonely Korean girl. (Note: I love that Mercedes is explicitly called African American, but Tina is just Korean.)
Artie - a boy in a wheelchair.
El coro del McKinley está formado por Kurt (Chris Colfer), un tenor con aires de soprano, muy dado a ver el lado dramático de las cosas; Mercedes (Amber Riley), una dinámica aspirante a diva; Arty (Kevin McHale), un guitarrista paralítico que pasa las horas huyendo del acoso de los tipos duros de la clase; y Tina (Jenna Ushkowitz), una chica algo torpe, que necesita contener su tartamudeo antes de entrar en el escenario.

Kurt - a tenor who poses as a soprano (Note: wtf), very prone to see the dramatic side of things. (Note: i.e. gay, but at least this article attempts to be tactful).
Mercedes - a dynamic diva wannabe. (Note: what does 'dynamic' even mean here?)
Arty (sic) - a paralytic guitar player who passes the time attempting to avoid harassment from the tough guys at school.
Tina - something of a klutz, who needs to contain her stuttering before going on stage. (Note: when has Tina ever been a klutz? Oh, whatever.)
I'm hoping that the articles improve in quality as the episodes air, 'cause I'm kind of speechless at the moment.
