GLEE REVIEW: Magically Delicious

Glee’s third season continued their perfect streak tonight with one magical surprise after the next!

The Good

Damian McGinty

The first official winner of this summer’s Glee Project finally made his debut tonight. Sure, his accent is a bit tough to understand at time, but there’s no denying his charisma and charm. He found the humor in all the right places, and my heart melted every time he started to sing. Sure they picked slow songs for him to sing that put Marissa to sleep (boo) but he has such a rich tone way beyond his years. 

Hot Bitches

Or the Trouble Tones as they have officially been called, finally are taking form. Getting Mercedes to start it up was easy, but now we have the other powerhouse Santana with her lovable sidekick Brittany S. Pierce along for the ride. Their rendition of Christina Aguilera’s “Candyman” wasn’t as remarkable as I would’ve hoped, but it still was worthy enough to get New Directions’ attention, getting them to shake in their boots.

The Race Is On

Burt Hummel is running for Congress against Sue, and it looks like she’s getting a run for her money (literally). Burt has been such a strong supporting character from the first time we saw him back in season one when Kurt came out to him after his big football game. Since then, he’s steadily become one of my favorites on the show. From his dramatic heart attack, to his Glee wedding, to the endless amount of love and support he has for his gay son, Burt has it all!

They did WHAT?!!

SPOILER ALERT: Puck & Shelby kissed! Totally called it, but still surprised. How this is going to unfold will be very interesting to see within the next couple of weeks.

What to Look Forward To

Next week’s episode is called “The First Time”. In the promo, it’s obvious that the couples going all the way in their relationship are Finn & Rachel as well as Kurt & Blaine. While some may find it immoral and wrong for a number of different reasons (reasons I may or may not be totally agreeing with), it’s still going to be groundbreaking to see the progression of a gay couple taking that next big step, and on primetime television of all places! Here’s to hoping for more open doors for gays on primetime television (no pun intended).
