best episode yet. and i usually skip 70% of each ep, but this? thisss.
and it was Chris's reaction to shooting the first kiss that got me, from the behind-the-scenes clip. all wide-eyed and breathy, saying "DAMN DARREN. imma need a cigarette after that!"
i will openly admit to crying during Landslide last week. Naya's face, oh my god. she broke my heart. i love that they're finally actually doing this, and not sweeping it away. AMAZEBALLS.
there were so many things i loved about it, and so many things i expect to love about it. for a start, pretty sure neither of them are going to die now that their relationship isn't working out, which is a huuuuuge step up from a lot of other lesbian relationships on tv.
i struggled so hard with the songs in this episode, but Blackbird was a standout. especially Chris's screen performance, with it. he did an amazing job of that scene, and so did Darren, i felt.
oh darren. i remember watching it, and there was a moment when i mimed being cupid with my bow and arrow, because it was OBVIOUSLY what was happening - just from the look on his face. KATHUD. IN LOVE.
on that note, i also liked misery (the song at the beginning of the ep that darren did by himself), but the rest of the songs were pretty throwaway. then again, what do you expect? original songs are never, ever going to look like anything but tripe when you stand it up against the classics they have on this show. blackbird was a beatles song, i mean, come on.
one classic moment: brit claiming her favorite song was "my headband". HAH.
there was a freaking HARP behind him. i laughed so hard. i was like, seriously? why not rays of light and cherubim and birds all around him? a HARP? y u no go all the way, show?
Misery was good, and sometimes they really do knock it out of the park with the covers, but a lot of the time i do cringe. and skip.
\O/ Sue is awesome! This should have been a show purely about her coaching kurt to take over the world! Then I could watch more than ten minutes of an episode XD
ugh yes I've never liked Rachel and Finn so I was never going to care about their character development tbh but Quinn was supposed to be more awesome than this :(
