So, did any of you catch GLEE last night? What did you think? I'm still trying to decide. I totally loved Mr. Shue and Holly's tango of Prince's Kiss song! That was my highlight. But the whole being sexy thing, in my opinion was handled oddly. It was funny when the Celibacy Club sang Afternoon Delight. All of them in their retro clothes and the way they danced. It was odd to me that Emma didn't understand that song. But why didn't Rachel or her hubby do anything about it?
I also loved that Blaine cares enough about Kurt to talk to his father about Kurt's issues with sex. And that Burt listened and took that initiative with Kurt. That talk, as awkward as it really was, was played well by the actor Mike O'Malley. He was very patient, kind, and even though he knew that Kurt was so not wanting to hear the message, he said it anyway. He told him that sex was not something to just do, it was something that needed to mean something because Kurt was important and meant something. That was a good message.
I liked the music, but the message was a little scary for me because I have teenagers. I am not sure that the message of sexiness that GLEE promoted last night was the message I want to preach. What did you think?
I thought Kurt and his Dad's talk was very well handled.
