how is babby formed?
Glee has just been disappointing for me. I'm glad Kurt and Blaine got together. I was really hoping they would just cut the crap and make out. It felt like they were dating long before they made it official, and I'm happy for this storyline for Kurt. He lost regionals but gained something special that he'd been looking for for a long time. I admit. Some of the things Kurt did got on my nerves, but they addressed those and had him grow again into the sympathetic and likable character he was when the series started. I just feel so disappointed by how almost all the other characters have regressed. I feel annoyed by how they've ruined Quinn and made all of her growth in the first season amount to nothing in the end. She was my favorite character because of her complicated storyline, and then bam. I was so disappointed when she cheated on Sam. Which was admittedly done because the creator said that they were too perfect. Way to make Quinn's character learn nothing from all she went through just for teh dramaz.
Also, as much as I enjoyed Rachel this episode, I know they're just going to make her some kind of huge, obnoxious, I'm-better-than-everyone diva once the break is over. Finn is pointless as anything but a love interest. Tina and Mercedes have faded into the background. I would appreciate Santana more if I didn't feel like her feelings for Brittany were just worked into the plot to cater to fans. No, really. It was said before that they just hooked up occasionally. I'm happy that Santana has developed, but, for one thing, popping plots everywhere just to cater to fandom is never the best of ideas. You want fans to enjoy your show, but if you cater too much to everything they want, it's just painfully obvious. I want the story to be good. I don't want to feel like someone is just pacifying me with OMG SQUEEEE LOOK AT SANTANA AND BRIITANY! And for another? Santana was a nasty, obnoxious character in just about every second she was on screen until that scene. Yes, I understand why she's had so much pent up rage and aggression. But sympathy, it is not yet hers. I do love her voice though and hope she gets more solos.
You know, the one plot I've truly enjoyed lately is Puck's relationship with Lauren. I love how she has more self-respect then any other girl he's dated and made him prove he really wanted to be with before letting him use her too. Honestly, I think she's probably perfect for him. Which means it's not going to last.
But I think I lied. I have also really enjoyed Brittany this season. I think she's adorable with Artie, and as much as I admit I preferred her with Santana at a point, I really hope they don't have her dump Artie. They're really sweet together, and if they break up? I hope it isn't just so she can get with Santana. That would annoy me because then I'd be almost entirely sure that it was because of fandom and annoyed that they would find a way to make Artie the bad guy in it all.
All in all, I'm disappointed. Season 2 started out great for but lost steam when it turned into monster after school special theme of the week. Don't get me wrong. I think a lot of what they've been saying about bullying and drinking and sexuality and acceptance is fantastic, but I feel like where they used to work such themes into the storyline, they've made it a bit in your face and, like I said, after school specialish. I know that Glee isn't going to make a lot of sense. It wouldn't be Glee if it was realistic, but I wish they worked their message more seamlessly into the storyline instead of hitting viewers over the head with it like we're stupid.
I know Glee isn't for everyone. And it has it's faults, but I'm just let down by it lately. It was so over the top and crazy and heart-warming, but it feels as though it's lost its charm a bit. It's like George Lucas. He had such a small budget and wasn't sure Star Wars would go over at all well when he started, and he made magic with the first trilogy. Then, he makes these godawful prequels with CG and bad acting and awful writing. Well, Glee isn't that bad yet, but I fear for it.
So I spent most of this post ranting about Glee. And now I'm a little tired and cranky, so I'll catch up on the meme tomorrow. Off to finish up a quest in DA2 and maybe watch some Firefly. Whenever I'm like "Nooooo, my show is turning to crappppp", I watch Firefly.
Speaking of DA2, lol Fenris is totally not my best friend in the world. Any time I struggle to gain a meager +5 friendship with him, it's erased by me standing up for a mage or something. But he is voiced by Balthier. I also gave him taunt to take all the hits since I'm not the biggest fan of Aveline.
Okay. So. My mage is a healer, so I don't use Anders a lot. But I'm nice to him and joke with him and picked like one flirty option or so because said mage likes to tease and put on a happy face and all that. And then he like took me. LIKE OUT OF NOWHERE. Just grabbed me and laid on on me. I was like O_O. I mean, I like Anders at this point! Even if I miss Awakening Anders. But ffffff. I actually kind of went with it, though. Hawke just lost her mother and was kind of secretly yearning for some companionship. I don't know if this will work out in the end, though. I hear things about Anders.
