Glee: Season 3 Discussion/Premiere preview clip

[FPAlpha]

Just to nitpick

Brittany and Santana have kissed (maybe even more.. it's been hinted at) in a season 2 episode i think when they had a scene in bed together (they were clothed) which showed them making out (way before her coming out as "pure" lesbian instead of being Bisexual).

Right now the show's kind of a mess and all over the place.. gone is the levity of season 1, the cool song arrangements of season 2 (cool songs in season 3 are rare) and the overall humor.

Ryan Murphy should dial down his campaign way down.. we get it, homosexual people (especially those still in school) have it hard in their life and it should not be trivialized but you can oversaturate the audience with your message and it's happening in Glee.

Sexual orientation isn't everything for kids so tone it down please and find some other storylines please.

No, they haven't kissed. Duets featured Santana sort of kissing Brittany's neck (much like this episode had Santana, behind Jacob's head, briefly giving Brittany a peck on the cheek). They have never kissed each other, unlike every other couple on the show (all of whom kissed in the episode they got together), and for a show that talks up how big it is for gay rights, it's an inexcusable double-standard.

If I'm not mistaken, in an episode just a few weeks ago, Britteny stated that she and Santana had taken a bath together. Anyone else recall this?

 

[Mark_Nguyen]

Yup. It was then that I realized that Britt and Artie had broken up, and had no idea when or how that had happened. This in turn had made me realize how tough it was to maintain interest in the individual characters of such a large cast...

I'm not talking about stuff they say. Obviously Brittany and Santana have kissed and had sex; we've known that since Season 1, Episode 13. But all that has happened off-screen. Unlike every other couple on the show ever, they have never kissed onscreen; but the show has never had a problem showing them kiss boys.

Yes, I see that this is what you're saying now, but my post was in reference to what you were saying before, which was that Britt and Santana had never kissed. Perhaps you meant on screen, but again, that is not what you wrote before my post.

If the School barely has the budget to support one Glee club why are they now able to support two?

I've been wondering the same thing but not because of budget because Sugar's dad is bankrolling the TroubleTones.

But haven't they always struggled to barely maintain the 12-member minimum required for a group to compete? How is it that they are suddenly able to support two groups, that's 24 people, with nary a mention of how hard it was/is to find members?

 

[CaptainCanada]

Apart from Sugar, the other TT girls all appear to be Cheerios, so I'm assuming that cheer captain Santana and President Brittany are pulling some strings in that regard.

 

[Guy Gardener]

Sugar is it? The little girl with the nose?

Her dad is loaded and is paying for everything so that his pumkin can be a star.

But they all treat her like shit.

If she walks the money vanishes.

They should be nicer to her.

So how did New Directions make up for the people they lost?

 

[trekkiebaggio]

New Directions:

Finn
Rachel
Kurt
Blaine
Puck
Quinn
Tina
Mike
Artie
Roy (I think that's his name)

So they need two more.

TT:

Mercedes
Santana
Brittany
Girl who can't sing

So yeah I don't know why New Directions are that worried. It wouldn't bother me so much it's just that no-one on the show has actually mentioned it being a factor.

I have really liked the last couple of episodes. Santana is brilliant, I don't mind the Puck and Shelby storyline. Kinda glad that Rachael got suspended, gives someone else a chance to shine. I also like how Finn is becoming more of a leader.

 

[Santeria]

You mean a show that conveniently changes the character's ages/grades between seasons ("this is my last chance to be popular!"), swings back and forth between blatant pedophilia and moral chastising, and desperately wants the audience to love and be sympathetic to a stalking, wickedly manipulative, painfully annoying, and completely self-centered brat who paints gay people in the worst light imaginable isn't remaining consistent with something like that?

Needless to say, I'm shocked.

Pedophilia????

Aren't the all the characters in their late teens?

They haven't yet. But that's the plot of next week.

 

[Starbreaker]

Pedophilia pretty much equals liking someone under the age of 18 to most people in the US.

It has a range of defintions as found in psychiatry, psychology, the vernacular, and law enforcement. But if it makes you feel better, replace it with "rampant statutory rape," "teacher fucking," "older women having gangbangs in the boy's locker room" or whatever term you want to throw in there.

Lets stick with the options 1, 2 and 4. As the "vernacular" tends to wallow in ignorance.

Guess I missed a few episodes. From what I've seen its been teachers fucking teachers and students fucking students.

 

[Mike Farley]

The only student/teacher relationship (outside of Rachel's brief, one-sided crush on Will in season one) has been Puck and Shelby...and he's 18, so no definition of pedophilia fits there.

 

[Starbreaker]

But it's still wrong.

 

[Guy Gardener]

Puck is possibly retarded.

If he can legally be proven to have the mental age of a 9 year old?
