Is Glee too gay?

It’s looking that way.

If you haven’t seen Fox’s Glee yet, you must, especially if you like musicals. (Think Broadway, not American Idol, which I’ve only seen for a few minutes. Ugh.) One of the ingredients that makes it different are how many minorities there are. I mean, almost everyone. Of course, most of the main characters are straight and white, – so far as we know – but that is a very diverse cast. They’re all good actors, and so it isn’t stuck in a minority ghetto, then.

I come from a society that hates show-offs, in any color or form.  Kurt and Sandy are so over the top flamboyant, so flaming that smoke comes out of their noses. And yet…they are so charming and spot on, with great dialogue, that I love them! Kurt in particular is a very strong actor, and great singer. They can stay. And Sue sure acts butch, even though she gave the eye to Puck. She’s brilliant.

HOWEVER…What is with all the coming out? Kurt came out to his good friend last week, and this week to his father. Bo-ring. Stop with the politically correct lessons.

This outfit is spectacular. I froze the tape several times, trying to remember it. She's backlit, so we can't see the real color of her skirt, which was more green. I'm going to use these colors in my next cartoon!

Kurt grudgingly admitting his neuroticism and sexual preference TWO EPISODES IN A ROW?? I wondered exactly how many of the writers are gay. Turns out the main producer, Ryan Murphy, is, and also turns out that he admits in articles that this is exactly how he came out to his own father. How very self-indulgent of him to take up 2 episodes with this.
