Born This Way
Apr. 26th, 2011 09:57 pmOh, Chris Colfer.... The things you do to me. First your reaction to Somewhere Only We Know (which Darren just KILLED, by the way) followed by the breathtaking performance of As If We Never Said Goodbye. You just... You move me, Chris. Seriously. That's the only thing I can say, really, that even comes close to expressing what you do and how it affects me. I head AIWNSG a few days ago and it moved me then, just hearing it. But then seeing how it was staged and how it was sung and the expression he brings to it? Never would have imagined that in a million years. Just... flabbergasted.
As for the elephant in the room - the Karofsky situation. Did not see the Santana development coming AT ALL. I am both troubled/perplexed and intrigued by it. I suppose, to them, it makes sense. They're not ready to come out to everyone and their actions do provide them with a certain amount of protection. I'm still struggling with trying to figure out if Karofsky was as sincere as he seemed to be to Kurt in that scene. I would like to think so, and if Santana really did show him all those articles and everything, I can see how that would be disturbing and hopefully make someone realize that their actions can and do have severe consequences.
On a completely shallow note, Chris was lookin' HOT tonight! At the mall with that hat, during Born This Way when he was stripped out of his jacket. Hnnnggggggg........ Blaine better watch out. Kurt's getting his sexy on!
There may be more thinky thoughts later as I process, but it's late. I'm tired. And emotionally exhausted. Again. So, yeah. Feel free to leave your thoughts and comments and we'll talk.

Date: 2011-04-27 04:51 am (UTC)I absolutely loved how HBIC Santana was tonight! And I loved Kurt in the principal's office with Karofsky. He knew. He knew from the start that Karofsky wasn't there out of the goodness of his heart. I adored Burt. He's a BAMF! Papa!Bear! Loved it!
Oh, 'SOWK' I adored. I saw such love between them. Endgame, baby! I teared up.
'AIWNSG' was awesome! If Chris doesn't get an award for that, well, people must be blind.
'Born This Way'--God, Chris/Kurt! So damn sexy. Love agrees with him, obviously.
Clearly, I loved this episode. I'm going to re-watch it tomorrow and see if I still love it as much.

Date: 2011-04-27 12:00 pm (UTC)Man, everyone really turned it out last night. I was so impressed with all of them.
Love agrees with him, obviously.
It really, really does. It's so great getting to see Kurt so happy. He totally deserves it.

I think Karofsky talking to Kurt was the only time he wasn't lying. The speech about the articles seemed to be fed by Santana and I doubt she did any kind of "education." But I believe that when he was one on one with Kurt in a "safe" space, that he was finally honest. I think that as much as he wants to just keep "beating out the gay" in public, that he's willing to understand that he let slip in front of Kurt and will actually talk to him.
OMG I LOVE KURT.

I've thought about it some more during the day today and I do think Karofsky was being sincere with Kurt. I still don't think he's accepted himself completely, which I do hope he does.
