Again, it's fine. :P
Ahaha... I actually don't ship at all, it's just really not my thing. Probably because I am both asexual and aromantic so I have literally no interest in it. Sherlock ftw. :P But, shipping in the Glee fandom is a bit creepy, imo. Kurt is shipped with everyone, including Quinn (who is female). :[ Ahg. Because a die-hard fan of someone when you do not think of them in a sexual manner and never, ever, ever want to is very hard. People can be creepy...
I love both Kurt and Rachel, for verrrry different reasons (I watch the show, unlike most people it seems, for the characters - the first episode I saw was Preggers which has practically no music, so I definitely got into it for the characters without even realizing it was a musical). I love Rachel because, ironically, she reminds me a lot of Chris Colfer (who plays Kurt), but in a crazy extreme kind of way, and I love Kurt because well, he's Kurt. There's nothing not to love about him. Okay, there is, he has character flaws, which I also love about the show, they're all flawed, but like I said - I love that. I love his flaws. It makes him more real. I mean, who doesn't have flaws?
That's part of what drives me nuts in this fandom, and even people who aren't in the fandom, just casual watchers. They don't get that a character is meant to have flaws. Perfect mary sues are not good characters. Yes, Kurt is jealous, lonely, etc. but without those traits he'd be boring, generic, like every other ~gay guy~ in tv. So his flaws are a big part of why I love him. (I'm pretty sure you can tell just how /much/ I love him from this rambling.)
Oh, and yes, Chris tried out for Artie because there was no Kurt originally (or Sue!). The writers were pretty enamored by him and created Kurt. :D His contract actually reads Artie #2 because Kurt wasn't fully written yet, haha.
Do you ever get that uh, thing, where you're so deep in a fandom and talking to someone who isn't and you sort of don't realize you know things that you think are so obvious in the fandom you just assume they know it too? That might be something only I do, I don't know... |D But I'm always shocked when people don't know things about Glee! Like, the things that are crazy obvious to me but really shouldn't be to most people when I think about it... but I just don't think about it. :[
I'm the same way. But I watch so much tv and much of it is not interesting at all, so I pay veerrry little attention to it. But at the same time I need to be watching it while I do that other thing, drawing or whatever, or else the drawing itself becomes boring. And usually I have to do at least 3 things. :\ My brain is retarded.
Haha, my cousins are obsessed with Community... and not with Glee. But yeah it is more of a niche show. I'm glad you've got some tv to watch though, I've found some stuff too, probably not as good. |D
I love Bones! Mostly for the character of Bones and David Boreanaz. :D But aaaahh Bones is so good she is like. Me. But more extreme. Wait I have the perfect image for this
I die every time. xD
My friend is also dying for N2N to go to the UK. Ever since Chris saw it he's been tweeting about it so all my friends realized that maybe I was on to something, pff.
Gypsy does have a movie, which is how I saw it, lul. It's a great movie. I also wasn't raised with many musicals - I was raised in Israel so, yeah, blah. The only movie-musicals I knew of were The Wizard of Oz and Grease, which are awesome and will always be awesome, but definitely did not satisfy my desire for musical theatre. :[ So in the last few years I've been on a musical theatre binge. I just saw Bye Bye Birdie and Singin' in the Rain, which are pretty cool and a lot better than I expected, definitely. Gypsy still owns though. Also Victor/Victoria. <|
I've heard part of the charm of ye-olde-DW was the terrible digital effects, though I really can't appreciate it. Dx Bah... creepy.
Glee airs on Tuesdays! :D In fact, I just saw the new episode, which was so awesome I am literally on a high. I'm trying to come up with a way of describing how awesome it was but all I can think of is multiple :D's. So er... it's awesome ; ; and I'm not always satisfied with the episode, definitely not. But this one, oh god.
Did I mention I love Glee? >>;
