Television Update

Glee: I hated everything except the girls' song and Kurt's plot line, but Kurt's plot line I loved like burning. God, Kurt was just so fierce and said the perfect, perfect things. I get tired of him crying every episode but that was a small quibble. I loved how after the jock kissed him, Kurt just shoved him back and looked horrified. His face! I am not sure what bulletproof kink that whole arc hit, but it hit them like burning. I don't even really want to think about the rest of the episode, though.

Community was also fantastic. I don't have much to say beyond that I enjoyed the hell out of this episode and hope they continue to do more episode like this, instead of the bigger, less satisfying episodes they've been doing lately.

One more thought on TVD: I rewatched the Rose/Damon sex scene, and I figured out some of what bugged me so much about it. The making-out bits were decent enough but the post-coital blocking was so weird. Seriously. When we cut back to them, Rose didn't look like she'd taken her top off or was mussed at all and then Damon is is nothing but a blanket? What, did his hard, sparkly penis catch a chil? The whole thing was just weird. Just because they're not in love is not excuse for a sub-par sex scene! Does not one remember the epically hot Mal/Nandi scene from Firefly?

You mean, besides the message that girls like guys who treat them like crap, girls putting up with guys treating them like crap, Artie wanting to get back with Brittany after treating her like crap, and Artie and Puck singing a stupid song together? ONLY EVERYTHING.

THANK YOU.

I think you just summed up my entire feelings on the episode. Other than Kurt, I was very disappointed.

Yeah, the sex-negative messages and the misogynistic bullshit of the rest of the episode really drove me up a wall. I literally could not watch the kiss between Will and Beiste.
