Glee: Grilled Cheesus (S2E3)

HRMMMMM. Glee is tackling some really hard things like sexuality, cliques, divorce, dead parents, single mothers but now RELIGION? Well they call it "spirituality." This might have made a turn for the worse because they made it a little strange with Finn praying to his cheese sandwich...I feel like it might have turned off a couple of viewers so I'm not sure this was such a smart move for the show. Good thing the songs were pretty good.

Basically Kurt's dad is in the hospital because he had a heart attack. So sad, I know. :( And everyone in the club wants to help him out so they turn to religious songs to help him through it. Kurt goes apeshit because he's atheist because apparently God doesn't accept the gays. So therefore he doesn't want everyone to sing this religion songs to help his dad get better. But in the end, everything works out, his dad wakes up and he ends up going to church with Mercedes just to see what it's like. :)

I also liked seeing Sue's nice side when she was talking about her sister and Down's syndrome and that's why she doesn't believe in God. This episode was definitely a little to controversial for me because I can understand why people could possibly get upset from this.

All of the songs had to do SOMEWHAT with religion. I'm not sure I really liked any of them but let's see...

Favorite songs?

  1. Kurt's "I Wanna Hold Your Hand"
    • Damn, this is one of my absolutely favorite Beatles songs!! In Across the Universe, one of my favorite movies ever, TV Carpio sings this when she's struggling with her sexuality. I was like shit. Total flashback!! This is really cute because he sings this for his dad. <3 
  2. Mercedes' "Bridge Over Trouble Water"
    • Mercedes takes Kurt to church with him to sing gospel with the choir in order for Kurt to understand that religion isn't just for people who believe in God, but a group of people who all believe in a common cause and most importantly help others in need. It's really adorable and I love this song alot~! :) YAY I love Simon & Garfunkel, well my parents do, so I listened to this song a lot when I was little. FLASHBACK AGAIN!
  3. Mercedes' "I Look to You"
    • Mercedes honestly shines through out this whole episode. Her voice is absolutely amazing, definitely one of the best out of the whole cast. I wish that she got to sing more, like when she sang Christina Aguilera's Beautiful last season! AHH. HEART HER! Sometimes, I have to admit, she looks awkward in the costumes but her voice makes up for it.
  4. Glee Cast "What If God Was One Of Us"
    • Damn,  love this song. Enough said. :) 
    Kind of glad when this episode was over, this was one of my least liked episode, excited for next week~!
