I agree with everything said in this Tumblr post. (go read it; I’ll be here when you get back) But… You can’t tell all the gay stories with one gay character. You can’t tell all the gay stories with eight gay characters. Hell, all the straight stories aren’t told yet and they have had millions… [Read more…]

So there this post on Digron’s Tumblr that shows every outfit Blaine wore in Dance With Somebody and there isn’t a bowtie to be seen. MerryMethods then reblogs it, adding this commentary: PEOPLE WHO JUMPED ON BOARD WITH THE WHOLE “BOWTIES ARE KLAINE’S EQUIVALENT OF A COLLAR” HEADCANON. BLAINE KNEW SOME SHIT WAS UP WHEN… [Read more…]

So it seemed like the pregnancy references were over. After all, Kurt and Mercedes helped “their lovechild” on her way to her new life via Sue’s shoes (misguided as their intentions may have been). Except that the most recent spoilers indicate a hippopotamus brooch on Kurt’s clothing. Early during the Old Kingdom, the Egyptians saw female… [Read more…]

The words that stick in my mind from Saturday Night Glee-ver were never said. “What would you do?” Wade/Unique asks Kurt and Mercedes. We don’t hear their advice, but we find out later that their advice was to not wear the dress and heels, to not stand out, and not to be Unique. That’s right… [Read more…]

Holy shitballs. I’m sort of waiting for other people to blink on this first, but I really loved last night’s episode. Finn and Rachel were irritating and mostly boring but there was some good stuff there too. If Finn had more fire in him usually, I might find them more interesting. But let’s talk about… [Read more…]

But here’s the thing, “Glee,” what you do doesn’t happen in a vacuum. You can’t say, outing is so terrible and so wrong and so tragic and so possibly suicidal one minute, yet just three months earlier say outing is A-OK if the popular hero quarterback dude does it to a kinda bitchy mean girl… [Read more…]

You’re so nice, you’re not good you’re not bad you’re just nice’-Stephen Sondheim, Into the woods One of the defining aspects of Season 3 has been the notable absence of Will Schuster as choir director. We’ve seen him in his private life but his place in the kid’s lives has become increasingly redundant. They’re growing… [Read more…]

Right now, Colfer is working without his leading man, Darren Criss, who is busy succeeding Daniel Radcliffe in Broadway’s How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. Where does that leave “Klaine,” especially with the most romantic of holidays on the horizon? “You’ll find out how [Blaine] leaves for a little bit and then comes… [Read more…]

Insider: But before we get to either of those things, we have this week’s episode — called Yes/No — which features New Directions recreating Summer Nights from Grease. Which side does Kurt sing on? Chris: [laughs] He was with the girls — by my request. Originally he was with the boys but I called Ryan… [Read more…]

I know this isn’t the usual fare around DG, but I thought this story was just too perfect to not share. Enjoy! I just got back from Spence’s school play: his first grade class did a little production of The Rainbow Fish. Spence didn’t really have a speaking role. He was one of two kids… [Read more…]
