I’m TeamBreezy and a Bobby Brown fan. Bobby didn’t get Whitney on crack per her own brother he ( her brother) was the first to give her crack and she introduced it to Bobby. My opinion is if you can’t separate the art from the artist then you shouldn’t do anything but read books…. PS There are also issues with some authors

2023-06-23 10:00:11 +0000 UTCThat is the second time we get to see Marley / Melissa in a cape type garment in her hands on her hips pose ! The pose that she would become so famous for in her cape for Supergirl! 😊

2023-06-13 08:01:54 +0000 UTCI remember you watching "Mama Mia" glee cast version on the Gleek of the Week Podcast
Cai R
2023-06-08 06:45:08 +0000 UTCI agree Jake is one the best singers in that current group. I would also say he is one of the best dancers too (and one the most good-looking ;)).

2023-06-08 06:05:04 +0000 UTCThis episode🎬 brings up some good topics to discuss. In regards to “support”, how could you weigh that? 🤔 If one cast member is a terrible human being, do you boycott the entire show and punish the rest of the cast, because of that one person? Is that really fair? 😧 If it is something that has aged with you over time, ⌚️ a familiar reminder of your childhood, 😅 it can be hard to let it go. Also,🤔 anyone in an abusive relationship should seek help. Hopefully they are able to have a healthy 👌🏼 support system as well. We do not know what goes on behind closed doors.🚪 It is easy to judge 👨⚖️ what you are not 👎🏼 going through. However, if you were to be in that 👉🏼situation, you have no idea💡how that will affect and change you. Everyone needs love ❤️ and support in their personal lives, no matter what. 🫂 Supporting 👏🏼any type of artist’s work 💼 should be situational. How does it make you feel? 🤔 If it does not feel right anymore or at all, that is okay. 👌🏼 You decide. ✌🏼😉

2023-05-13 23:18:58 +0000 UTCGoosebumps! <3 I kid you not, earlier in the day before we watched this episode... we had gone to like overstock/bargain store. My cousin, in the midst of sneeze attack and messing up the ear she just got the shot in, bought 2 box sets of goosebumps. We don't have them anymore, but when she was younger I had given her all my originals (I may have had a few.....) and she loved them. This was before the movie or any of that. She also got super hooked on Are You Afraid of the Dark? for a while. I had forgotten all about choose your own adventure books *happy sigh* those were good times.

2023-05-08 15:20:45 +0000 UTCYeah I believe it’s season 3 episode 4 it’s amazing
Jay Lock
2023-04-21 14:03:03 +0000 UTCyea why did Blaine choose that song? idk
Audrey McDonald ( Songs From A Suitcase)
2023-04-21 13:28:44 +0000 UTCVery true. Trying to make things black and white can often times be the issue, but we as humans, often try to get the ANSWER. We dont like grey areas or unknown.

2023-04-21 13:26:29 +0000 UTCi want one of those pillows hahah

Jessica taylor
2023-04-21 01:22:22 +0000 UTCthe song take a look at me now reminded me of the musical episode of dynasty i totally think you should react to that because it has elizabeth gilles in and shes an amazing singer
Jay Lock
2023-04-20 23:40:53 +0000 UTCKartie/Wildebrams is probably my favorite "side" ship. I just adore them together and I wish they sang more as their voices blend really well. One of their duet is actually in my top 10 Glee songs. Next ep is heavy. I don't remember everything about it so I'm lookng forward to watching it again with you.
Pauline
2023-04-17 20:20:55 +0000 UTCI miss the 90’s, when everyone was an individual and you didn’t put them in a box and label them. Like back in the earlier 20th century there were the labels, the 60’s and 70’s basically liberated everyone, now we’re going back to labels. Funny how time works and everything is repeated.

2023-04-17 08:51:18 +0000 UTCsam originally said his guilty pleasure was taylor swift and i wish they did it

2023-04-17 06:44:14 +0000 UTCNext episode is the really tough one to watch
Shani Gribben
2023-04-17 01:15:51 +0000 UTCIn this instance his interpretation was wrong though.
Heida
2023-04-16 19:57:02 +0000 UTCI 100% agree
Sophie R
2023-04-16 18:02:11 +0000 UTCI am pretty sure most people have caught this but during the hula hoop part of Mama Mia, Kurt (Chris) trips in the background. I notice it every time I watch the song now. Anyways, I love the boyfriend/girlfriend pillows. I love this episode. When I watched it the first time it was not one of my favorites but it’s definitely grown on me…you might even say it’s my guilty pleasure. It’s just a fun episode…well for the most part. It’s glee of course they snuck some serious stuff in as well. I absolutely love the way Sam handled Blaine’s crush. Blam is the best.
Ashley
2023-04-15 18:15:32 +0000 UTCJake was not treated like a misogynistic woman abuser. The girls were disappointed that he supported Chris Brown. It’s just that simple. I would have a problem if my boyfriend/friend just casually listened to and supported Brown, because I think it would lead me to believe what else is he willing to play the devil’s advocate about. I get why Jake described it as a literal guilty pleasure, but I think we have to stop pretending that it’s simple to separate the art from the artist when we’re talking about music. The artist is often heavily involved in the creative process of making music and the music frequently reflects who they are as a person. This is not always true, but there is a direct connection between listening to someone’s music and supporting them as a person since it’s their literal career. The car thing is an interesting fact, but it’s about a bunch of dead guys who have nothing to do with the car now and again, not everyone knows that history. Jake knows about who Chris Brown is as a person and was going to publicly celebrate his music and artistry. That’s the issue for me.

2023-04-15 13:20:35 +0000 UTC😂 I’m so sorry! The gym I’m at is super broken down but that’s what I get when I want a quiet gym that doesn’t have people using it.
Audrey McDonald ( Songs From A Suitcase)
2023-04-15 12:30:36 +0000 UTCBlaine's solo IMO was his best on the whole show. It was one of the few times the production team didnt add 100 levels of crap to his vocals. Also, I think it may be worth mentioning for anyone who had not yet seen EP18.. TRIGGER WARNING..it may not an easy episode to digest for some, I've seen it 3 or 4 times and i still get goose bumps....especially with the violence that's been happening the past 2 months.
LisaMarie_82
2023-04-15 07:09:50 +0000 UTCsorry if we mislead lol this wasn't the last episode with finn there is only one more and it is however episode 19 since he isn't in this couple. this episode is definitely a fun and interesting one. I agree with a lot of what you said about the Chris brown subject. also I love the spice girls in this episode, so fun! I think some things like spice girls and mamma definitely aren't necessarily a guilty pleasures but still love the appearance of both. one of my favorite parts was that one moment between sam in Blaine when sam admitted he knew, idk I just love their friendship. some weird song choices this episode overall but season 4 is like that so you tend to just move on lol
Wrenretro
2023-04-15 07:04:33 +0000 UTCyep lol i remember that! wasn't it because of the assembly line being able to mass produce them or something?

2023-04-15 02:50:09 +0000 UTCFinn is in a couple more eps I think this defo not his last
megan vickers
2023-04-15 00:37:38 +0000 UTCI might be inclined to agree for a different franchise other than Harry Potter, but I can't bring myself to enjoy anything new. It really doesn't help that Rowling has gone on the record saying that she thinks anyone who purchases anything dealing with the franchise clearly supports what she says. Plus she still gets money from it all, even if other people do too. And she uses that money to hurt trans people and I can't bring myself to do that.
Sebastian Sawyer
2023-04-15 00:03:22 +0000 UTCYou explained things really well, I genuinely like your comment. I do think there should be distinction between art forms when it comes to boycott new material so that the wrong person can't profit. In the sense that (and someone else in the comments explains better than I do) that with music and books, there's a slightly more direct artist to profit ratio. But with movies, tv, video games, etc. there's a MASSIVE team that goes into bringing those things to life. And I find it hard to boycott something I love (like Harry Potter's broad spectrum of entertainment) just to spite one person. I don't think the rest of the cast, crew, marketing, editors, craftsmen, etc. deserve to not be compensated for all their hard work bringing a beautiful story to life, just because the person who came up with the first thing has since made some very harsh choices.
Jennifer Sauer
2023-04-14 22:29:19 +0000 UTCNicole and Jennifer - I really like what you guys said about this topic. I tried to do the same in my own independent comment, but you both said it much more succinctly.
Jennifer Sauer
2023-04-14 22:17:34 +0000 UTCI agree that Jake's character made some very, very wrong comparisons with Brittany and what he said about Rihanna. But I don't think it's fair to say that Jake's interpretation of guilty pleasures is incorrect. Guilty pleasures does not exclusively mean "I like this thing even though mainstream opinion thinks it's lame."
Jennifer Sauer
2023-04-14 22:13:53 +0000 UTCI agree with everyone that Jake was way out of line in using Rihanna's return to an abusive ex as a reason why she doesn't qualify as a role-model. Absolutely ridiculous. I will say that I think he makes a fair point about why he chose Chris's song for "guilty pleasures" week. He said he enjoys Chris' music (for music's sake alone) but because of who Chris Brown is as a (truly terrible) person, THIS is what makes him feel guilty for liking his music. And I do agree with what he said about being able to separate art from the artist. There are so many gray areas ethically speaking but sometimes it feels like people try to force things to be black and white, and it's hard for me to think that way because I am not a polarizing person. A terrible person can create something beautiful, and I think you should be able to appreciate the talent without that appreciation being misconstrued as "I like this one thing someone created, therefore I vehemently approve of EVERYTHING this person has ever said and done." It's just not a feasible way to think of things 90% of the time. VW Beetle is one of the most famous and beloved cars in recent history. But most people gloss over the fact that the design of this car is the brainchild of Adolf Hitler and Ferdinand Porsche. And Joseph Ganz, who invented most of the design in 1933 before Hitler stole his designs. It was a practical and affordable car made for the average German family in the 30s/40s. But do people still buy VW Bugs? And play "Punch Buggy"? And enjoy the "Herbie" movies? Yes. Doesn't make someone a Nazi if they buy a Beetle, so Jake shouldn't be treated like a misogynistic woman abuser just because he enjoys the music Chris Brown made. That being said, I don't listen to Chris Brown music cause I'm just not a fan in general. I think the girls were way too polarizing and judgmental towards Jake about his song choices in this episode. It was super aggressive and misplaced. You can hate Chris Brown but don't take it out on Jake like that. Here's a link on the Beetle history in case anyone is interested. I only found out about it myself a couple years ago: https://auto.howstuffworks.com/under-the-hood/auto-manufacturing/did-the-nazis-invent-the-volkswagen-beetle.htm
Jennifer Sauer
2023-04-14 21:41:36 +0000 UTCSam said he was a "Fannilow" which is what fans of barry mannilow call themselves LOL Jake comparing an abuser to someone who goes back to an abuser and saying "these are both the same level of bad and they are wrong in the same way" is actually infuriating. I thought Marley's eyes were going to pop out of her head. I know Santana comes off brash and rude but I honestly like the way she panicked and immediately put a stop to Rachel thinking her and Brody will ever be a thing again. It showed she cared more about Rachel's immediate wellbeing than waiting for an arbitrary date to break it to her which, as we see, doesn't go over well with her that they waited even a little bit. It confuses me that Blaine chose THAT song to sing about Sam cause it honestly sounds like it's about Kurt. Sam isn't the one that knew him better than anyone. "you coming back to me is against all odds" sounds like something that would be said about Kurt lol. I just think there was so many songs that could have expressed his feelings for Sam better. While I'm not a big fan of Ryder, he was so excited during everyone's performances in this episode lol I love watching the people in the background during performances. I also love that Jake chose a Bobby Brown song that Britney Spears covered so no one could really say anything to him about it unless they wanted to argue about Britney. Creep was such a weird song choice. Vocally for Rachel and just...in general but I'm glad it marks the end of her and Brody. The NEXT episode is the one that is going to make you cry. I mean, I'd be really surprised if it didn't LOL. It is sometimes one that I skip on my rewatch cause I don't feel like being that emotional. It's hard to give you a trigger warning without spoiling anything but just know that everything is eventually fine cause it's Glee.
Cory James
2023-04-14 18:31:10 +0000 UTCJake's comments about performing songs by "role models" never made sense to me. He named three people who were survivors of abuse, as a justification for why he should support an abuser? Chris Brown is more than just "not a good role model." He's a repeated abuser and stalker (I don't think the stalking thing happened until after later though) and if you're willing to sing his music, that to me, is some sort of celebration of him as an artist. The point of the assignment is to reveal your guilty pleasures so that there's some glee and emotional nakedness about how an artist makes you feel. Performing Chris Brown in that way would just never be a good idea. And using Rihanna going back to him as some sort of gotcha is just a horrible lack of understanding and knowledge when it comes to interpersonal violence.

2023-04-14 17:57:48 +0000 UTCLove this episode and we need a mamma mia two watch party
Jake Sullivan
2023-04-14 15:50:15 +0000 UTCEven though it wasn't at all intentional it always makes me sad the way his storyline ends. Definitely not as much as how his death saddens me. I like to believe if he lived that Finn actually would have become a teacher. He seemed to really enjoy it and he was good with the students. He just needed direction and more confidence in himself.
Jennifer Lawrence
2023-04-14 15:10:09 +0000 UTCJust a heads up that the next episode is very triggering for a lot of people. I cry every time I watch it. I actually don't mind the Kitty and Artie thing, but Artie commenting on Kittie's performance always gives me 2nd hand embarrassment. Mama Mia is definitely one of my favorite musical movies. My guilty pleasure is probably JLo movies. I love every movie she's in, from The Cell to The Wedding Planner. It's so cringe hearing the entire discussion about Chris Brown with Blake Jenner and Mellissa Benoit in the conversation. That definitely did not age well. It is a touchy subject about separating art from the artists, products from companies, etc. There's Chris Brown who obviously had no remorse in what he did. There are people like JK who actually flaunt how much money she makes despite protests and continuously works against the trans community. People who are directly making money because of the pain and trauma they inflict are a huge nono for me personally. As a member of the trans community, I would never be caught wearing a Slytherin shirt even if that time of my life was special and had so many good memories. Am I gonna curse someone for wearing a Slytherin shirt? No. I know plenty of queer people who continue to eat at Chik-Fil-A despite the fact that money from the corporation (all franchises pay money to the corporation no mater how queer friendly one particular store is) gets donated to anti-lgbt organizations (which in a kevin bacon 6 degrees of separation way led to legalizing unaliving gay individuals in Uganda), but I'm not going to. But I will inform people so that they can make their own personal choices. I think it's just something people have to decide what to do with their own time and money. All I can do is inform people, or nudge them to look things up, because sometimes, like Jake didn't know about the drugs things, people just don't know. But in the same vein, do you want to be romantically involved with someone who supports a domestic abuser? Do I want to be with someone who would want to decorate a living space with HP stuff that would constantly remind me of JK? It's just not black and white for this topic. There are so many shades of grey.

2023-04-14 15:10:06 +0000 UTCSorry I meant last season as in from the one that she’s currently on. During season 3 they had like 16 members soI was just saying there likely were episodes where some of the main characters didn’t have any lines either. I’m not saying Kevin was lying or anything just that it could also be true for others.
Benjamin Smith
2023-04-14 13:36:28 +0000 UTCSugar and Joe (rich girl and dreadlocks) seem to fade in and out over season 4 Corys last episode is episode 19, he entered rehab after that and then.. you know. Next episode is a very tough one to watch
Sophie R
2023-04-14 11:44:18 +0000 UTCTheir ship name is Wildebrams I think (last names) but I’m not sure
Sophie R
2023-04-14 11:40:02 +0000 UTCKitty is definitely a character that had to grow on me, but I ended up liking her. Especially by the last season
Jennifer Lawrence
2023-04-14 09:54:00 +0000 UTCYeah, I also think about that too. If I chose not to go see a movie because of not wanting to support one actor in it. I'd also not be supporting all of the others who worked hard on it that had nothing to do with one person's actions or choices.
Jennifer Lawrence
2023-04-14 09:45:40 +0000 UTCI disagree. Like someone else said, everyone else's choices were more stuff they were embarrassed by rather than actual shame or guilt because of something bad or criminal the artist had done. Like Sam's Barry Manilow was not because Barry Manilow abused someone but because he's considered 'lame'. Also, comparing an abuser to an abuse survivor who went back to their abuser is disgusting. And comparing Britney's mental health crisis to Chris Brown's abuse of Rihanna is offensive. That is not comparable at all!
Heida
2023-04-14 09:44:06 +0000 UTCThe glare on your hair made it look like it was purple the whole video, like Mal from Descendants. I liked it... 😁
Kenyatta (KD) Smith
2023-04-14 09:43:14 +0000 UTCYesss, the start of Artie+Kitty(i don't know their ship name, oops🥲) they're actually one of my favorite couples in glee🩷 And I love how happy you were when Kitty was on screen. I told you you gonna start like Kitty!😂 This episode was soo good, I so love Blaines cover of Against all Odds, I also really love the cover of Creep and think it sounds amazing but then again, I'm not a professionel singer so what do i know😂 BUUUUUT!! Next week is one of two of my favorite episodes of season 4😍 and its the one which is really sad!! (At least for me, I cry everytime i watch it) I'm pretty sure we still get one episode with Finn, I think it's the one after next week. Also, I personally don't think I have a guilty pleasure. I'm someone who's really open and doesn't care much about other peoples opinion🫣 maaaaaybe, cause I'm from Germany, I love listening to german songs from the 80's and 90's. Yea, thats the closest it could get to being a guilty pleasure cause thats not something I usually want to tell people😂
patrick
2023-04-14 09:42:58 +0000 UTCNext episode is a hard one and could be triggering. Ep.19 is Cory's last ep. Fun fact: Sam's guilty pleasure was originally going to be Taylor Swift and he was gonna sing I Knew You Were Trouble. This was during a time when it was 'cool' to hate and slut-shame Taylor. Don't know why it was changed but Chord and Taylor were rumoured to be dating at one point (Taylor and Cory too). I'm a fierce Justin Bieber defender and he was NOT spitting at his fans. He did a lot of stupid stuff back then but some of it was taken out of context or exaggerated. It was also a time when it was 'cool' to hate him. Him doing a song with Chris Brown was a lot worse than most of the shit people were talking about. Or being friends with Kanye. I can't defend that. I think the art vs. the artist thing is a good conversation to have, now more than ever. People just have to do what they are comfortable with BUT if there's something I cannot stand it's hypocrisy and double standards. If you wouldn't listen to Chris Brown why would you listen to Bobby Brown? EVERYONE knows he got Whitney hooked on drugs (not taking responsibility away from her). HE ALSO ABUSED HER! And should we still be listening to Michael Jackson? One could argue that 1. He's dead so he's not profiting anymore and 2. He was found not guilty in a court of law. But what about Kanye or Marilyn Manson? If you're gonna do it you need to apply it to everyone. Also, comparing an abuser to an abuse survivor who went back to their abuser is disgusting. And comparing Britney's mental health crisis to Chris Brown's abuse of Rihanna is offensive. That is not comparable at all! Also, the irony about Rachel and Brody is that the first guy Lea dated after Cory died was allegedly a former gigolo. I remember when that came out, everyone was tripping!
Heida
2023-04-14 09:26:43 +0000 UTCSo this is one of my favorite episodes of the show. I have a soft spot for season 4 and I really enjoy this episode. The Jake and Chris Brown thing is the only thing I disagree with. I don't think there's an issue with him listening to Chris Brown, especially if it's in a way that doesn't give him any money [like if it's off a CD he had purchased before everything had come out[. I don't think giving someone who's terrible monetary profit is a good thing, but I don't have issues with enjoying stuff. Like, there is one or two Chris brown songs I enjoy that I didn't even realize were his songs. I don't really listen to them because I wouldn't listen to them on spotify or anything but If they came on the radio I'd probably jam out to them. And I don't see anything wrong with that. As a trans person, I liken it to the entire JK Rowling thing. I still very much like Harry Potter and enjoy the books and movies. Before it became painstakingly obvious that she was a transphobe, I already had owned the entire book series and movies. I won't go out and buy any of her new stuff and I won't buy any licensed Harry Potter stuff. But I won't stop enjoying the books and movies I already own because she doesn't profit off of them. And I don't see why that can't be true for music. I won't judge anyone for not wanting to support artists or any famous people in any way, even if it's stuff that you've already purchased of theirs. I don't think we should support any of their new stuff but I won't get upset for enjoying the older stuff. And I just wished people wouldn't get mad at others for that too.

Audrey McDonald ( Songs From A Suitcase)
2023-04-14 07:48:33 +0000 UTCAlso in the last season a lot of them were credited as reoccurring or guest stars, not main characters so there'd be a difference in pay. Kevin was listed as a main character for the majority of the series
Jay Johnston
2023-04-14 06:46:40 +0000 UTCThe most expensive extras joke knowledge came from Kevin himself cause him and Jenna talk about it on their podcast so I don't know what you want me to say here 🤷♂️
Jay Johnston
2023-04-14 06:11:54 +0000 UTCPretty sure that was the case for multiple characters especially during the time when they had like 15 people last season in the glee club.
Benjamin Smith
2023-04-14 06:07:46 +0000 UTCPossibly but there were episodes where he only got one or two lines if he got any. Once the original script for an episode had him have two lines and then they cut one of them.
Jay Johnston
2023-04-14 05:57:42 +0000 UTCAs others have said it became somewhat of a running joke with Sugar and Joe periodically disappearing throughout season 4 and I believe at one point it’s directly addressed in the season finale.
Benjamin Smith
2023-04-14 05:56:44 +0000 UTCWasn’t Artie (Kevin) actually the only one or one of the only cast members to appear in every episode of the entire show?
Benjamin Smith
2023-04-14 05:54:09 +0000 UTCRory: left at the end of season 3. The official reason given on the show being that his character couldn't get another visa. I can't remember why the actor (Damian McGinty) left, could just be that he fulfilled his 7 episodes he won and they didn't want to keep the character Joe (dreadlocks): they don't really address this properly but the actor (Samuel Larsen) left the show because there was something in his contract saying he couldn't get rid of his dreads while on the show and he wanted to cut them off Sugar (rich girl): the actress (Vanessa Lengies) was actually on an episode by episode basis for her contracts so when they filmed one episode she didn't actually know if she'd be back for another. It's why it seems so random on if she's there or not For not seeing Artie much: apparently Kevin McHale and Jayma Mays (Emma) used to joke around about being the most expensive extras because of how few lines they were getting sometimes Rihanna and Chris Brown: there's actually statistics out there that it take abused women around 8 tries to actually fully leave an abusive relationship. We may not always understand from the outside on why someone would go back to someone who hurt them as bad as Chris Brown hurt Rihanna but sometimes it's not as simple as just leaving so I think Rihanna needs to be given some grace about going back

Darren sang Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now) Live!!! he is like the only cast member that occasionally sings live on the show. Also Cory's last episode is 4x19 and then his tribute in season 5.

2023-04-14 04:09:31 +0000 UTCEpisode 19 is Cory's last episode. After that he had entered rehab and he passed shortly after getting out of rehab

2023-04-14 03:51:21 +0000 UTCJake's argument for wanting to do Chris Brown because it is, by definition, a guilty pleasure is logical face-value wise, but everyone else's choices were more stuff they were embarrassed by than actually something criminal about the artists. Jake comparing Britney, Rihanna, etc. to Chris Brown is always really upsetting to me. Being a domestic abuser should not be equated to staying with an abuser, and the implication that an abused woman is also blameworthy is extremely troubling and problematic. we all know the trauma in play there and what abused women go through (as actually shown with beiste). as for the justin bieber thing, I think with most things, everyone's own choices for who they want to (or not) listen to is fine, but even though spitting on people is obviously messed up, it is not anywhere near comparable to domestic abuse. I also feel like art vs. artist conversations are different for different kinds of media. for music, it's mostly the singer who worked on the material and is profiting, but with movies/tv, theres many actors and many people behind the scenes that are a part of the project.

2023-04-14 03:40:25 +0000 UTCThis is the time when Sugar (rich girl) and Joe (dreadlocks guy) were being fazed out. They will come back for 1 or 2 more episodes this season but that is it until the shows finale. Also I totally agree with you about Leas voice on rock music. Like she doesn’t sound horrible, but it’s not fitting for her. Instead of haze her voice is kinda nasally sounding and it’s not a great fit. Though she sings barracuda with someone in season five and I think that’s the best she’s ever sounded on rock. Also fun fact: Blaine’s song was sung live!

2023-04-14 03:18:40 +0000 UTCThe kids you realized were missing. The Irish kid left the end of last season and the guy with the dreads and the rich girl left after Valentine’s Day, but will be back in the season finale for an appearance to say goodbye.

2023-04-14 02:11:23 +0000 UTCI was absolutely obsessed with the Spice Girls when I was in middle school and they were big. Still love them. As well as a lot of the artists they mentioned as guilty pleasures lol. I struggle a lot with the artist vs art thing. I guess when it comes down to it... I just end up doing whatever I feel comfortable with. If I tried to not watch every movie that someone involved in it did something I didn't approve of I probably wouldn't watch much at all. Same thing goes with music. Not that I'm offended by so many things. It's just that if I started researching each person involved I'd probably find out some unsavory things they'd done, said, supported, etc. Then it comes down to if I can still enjoy it, knowing what I've found out about them. Sometimes I can't see them without being reminded or look at them the same anymore. Like when the DMs came out with Adam Levine from Maroon 5. Even if he didn't actually hook up with the girl the messages he sent were totally inappropriate for a married man with a pregnant wife. Even outside of that they still have me an ick I can't shake.

2023-04-14 02:10:29 +0000 UTCOh, this is one of my favorite episodes. I love all the music in this episode. Love that they started out with Wham with those outfits, hair, and neon colors...so 80s. Copacabana was such a fun song. It wasn't supposed to be a dance number with the whole group, but Heather got up and danced and they all just joined in. That explains the surprised look on Jake's face when she pulled him up to dance. Also, Heather did all those cartwheels in Wannabe while pregnant...just amazing. And I love that they brought Kitty to the forefront in this episode. Looking forward to seeing more of her. Darren sang Against All Odds live and it was such an amazing rendition. I'm so glad that they resolved it the way they did with Sam. I still hate that they made Sam seem so stupid when this episode clearly shows how observant and smart he is about keeping his friendship with Blaine intact. Jacob Artist (Jake) is a Juilliard trained dancer and probably my 3rd favorite dancer on the show (behind my guy Harry and Heather of course). I love his voice too and his acting is good. He's a true triple threat of the newbies. Also, the disappearance of characters for a while is a thing that is always mentioned about this show. I love Kurtcheltana in NYC. I was happy to see Kurt and Santana back to being besties and watching TV with their arm pillows together. I'm also glad to see that Santana is moving more towards being a good friend and that the characters are acknowledging it. She says the stuff that is sometimes hard to say to friends (although with her unique Santana style of saying things, which Naya plays to perfection balancing the attitude and edge with the softness that we now know exists in Santana and not just with Brittany) and she is a true friend for doing that. Also, Santana in pigtails was just a gift to us all.

2023-04-14 01:33:39 +0000 UTCI actually performed with Barry Manilow in Denver. My choir performed with him back in 2014. Also, the Chris Brown things hits hard because the actress who plays Marley was in a domestic abuse situation with the actor who played Ryder. So it's very cringy now rewatching this episode.
