I LOVE GLEE. You can judge me now.

Glee's episode "Wheels" was . . . amazing. While I just tend to have this "I only want to enjoy the show dammit" attitude most of the time whenever I watch Glee, and I have no shame in admitting one of the reasons I love it is mostly because of the songs, it made me incredibly glad to see this episode made all the characters that appeared in it a lot more human. I'm not sure if it makes sense, but that's the best way I can put it. It felt less like a satire, and it actually made me cry at some point (more than once). It focused a lot more in character development and exploring emotions and motivations than anything else.

Still. I don't really get the whole "I can't like the characters" argument I've seen everywhere myself, but I respect it and it's their opinion, but frankly I . . . have been liking them almost from the start? I mean, I love Rachel and Quinn, and I love Finn and I started to like Puck two episodes ago. I adore Emma and Will, but for example, I don't love Will as much as I love Sue or Kurt. I didn't have a ship in Glee until today and I wish they handled the fake pregnancy plot better. BUT I love everything else and if ignoring it makes me shallow I don't care in the least.

To be honest? This episode is exactly what I wanted Glee to be. What I expected and what I needed from it. I hope they follow this path and give the characters more deep, because I seriously love most of them now. I'm just going to ignore its fandom stupidity regarding certain things and go with the fact it was awesome.

Kurt's plot regarding Defying Gravity was fantastic and I wanted to cry by the end when he was talking with his dad. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. It still makes me sad Kurt sabotaged his own solo, but his reasons. fsdjgk. I adore him. It must be obvious by now how much I love this character, it makes me feel so embarrassed. Also his dad is amazing, he should appear more often because god, I love him. Also Sue is definitely my favourite after Kurt, the fact we finally see her under a new light was just what I wanted. I adored all those parts. AND ARTIE. Artie is amazing and I love his voice and if there's a pairing I ship in this show so far is Artie/Tina. It's officially my OTP and I adored how they handled the whole thing, it broke my heart.

I just. I love Glee, guys. Yes, I agree it has a lot of problems but this episode proves exactly why I liked it in the first place and I hope they keep doing more of this instead. In short: if there's one episode I would recommend everyone to see is this one.

In CFUD-related news, I'm not gonna be around during counselors this Friday because I'm going to a dinner and then to a party after school. I didn't go to the last one and I regretted it, so like hell I'm going to miss this one. I'M GLAD THOUGH, because while I've finished my app I'm getting horribly stressed over it.

Now I just need to make more icons. I don't know why, but it takes me forever to make icons nowadays.
