Glee (TV Series) I Am Unicorn (2011) User Reviews

Taking issue with previous reviews and adding my 2 cents

[bgoo-19890 · 10/10 · 17 October 2021]

From everything I have read about thee actors Corey Monteith is a guy I would have liked to meet. I think everyone has demons they fight against. If I had gotten to know him I would have told him that, like many of my friends, you go through rehab and fall down. In this country we criticize the fail. I think it is a stronger man that tries again. The problem with opiates is when you relapse you start again where you left off. I would have told him to just try again. His talent was worth it.

Mark Sallings case there is not a lot of info out there about how his However bad he had things, suicide is in the end a selfish act.

The critique about the Autism and handling of Asperger's shows that the poster has no idea of what Asperger's can be. Asperger's is hard to diagnose and can have many different

I never saw GLEE when it was on its original run. I found it as a "pop -up" on Prime. Since I have I am on my 3rd run of the 6 seasons. Yes I do see it's "GAY" appeal too. I am "GAY". The Klaine sand Brittany- Santana storylines are wonderfully handled. However for me it is the music that is the big appeal. I wear my wireless headset and sing along to the music. Glee is this gay mans guilty pleasure. Darren Cris is a very phenomenal and versatile actor. He plays an out proud and gay man in such a way as to be a model for young men coming out. Chris Colfer is also a model for those coming out a bit effeminate.

Hard to watch

I like the episode just fine, but it is really hard to watch episodes where Mark Salling interacts with kids...

Gayest episode yet.

Glee has created some kind of "Gay reputation", which has got us all male fans saying: "It's not that gay", supporting our argument with performances from Aerosmith, ACDC, Kiss, Bon Jovi, Usher, Journey, etc.

But if some guy ever said "Ok, if it's not that gay, I'll give it a shot", and tuned "I am Unicorn" as his first Glee episode, he would definitely prove us wrong and never watch it again.

For starters the plot uses a lot of gay content, having the effeminate Kurt Hummel, trying to act manly to get the lead in McKinley High production of "The West Side Story". Plus Brittany Pierce helping him with his senior class president campaign mostly based on unicorns and rainbows.

Also, the episode futures nothing but Broadway musical songs, which, let's face it, it's not the reason most people watch the show. With Characters like Rachel Berry, Kurt Hummel, April Rhodes, and Will Schuester, Broadway has taken a huge part on the show. But most people who watch the show don't know a lot about Broadway musicals, and even less people have actually seen one.

We have heard Broadway songs before in the show, which for a lot of people wasn't disturbing at all, since, not only did the cast gave a great performance, but after that Broadway song came worldwide favorite. This was not the case in this episode. The performances were good, but Broadway after Broadway turned boring and left us wanting more. Especially being only the second episode of the third season, (and the first one also featuring a lot of Broadway musical numbers. Better ones though.) it makes us wonder if the season will ever get any better, or is it gonna shub Broadway deep into our ears.

Anyways the third episode will feature some Beyonce and Coldplay which will turn it a little more interesting, but we will still be hearing a lot from "The West Side Story".

Which brings me to my third point. Looks like the whole third season is heading towards the Glee cast doing "The West Side Story", which is turning very annoying, since a lot of people (including myself) believe TWSS is not that good of a musical and the writers could have picked a better one. Some also say TWSS storyline is already long enough, and one episode would have been enough. (Like the Rocky Horror Picture Show episode.)

However they're soon gonna run out of WSS songs to fill their episodes and when they do, I hope we get to listen a lot of our favorites we haven't heard yet.

Well musically speaking: The show really left me wanting more.

Shameful

This is a note to the writing crew get a fing education. If you portrait Autism in the way that you did could turn people against people in the spectrum you may make some people react like they did in the 30's. Shaaame SHAME!!!
