Glee-wind: Big Brother

After yet another excruciating hiatus Glee returned Tuesday with some long awaited answers to the cliffhangers we were left with in February.

I felt like the resolution to Quinn's accident did come a little quick, but I also realized there are only eight episodes left so there really wasn't a ton of time to spend on resolving the cliffhanger. I wasn't a huge fan of this storyline to begin with but I am interested to see how it's going to be resolved. With the talk Artie had with her at the park I'm really wondering if Quinn walking again is going to be much harder than just waiting for Nationals. I did absolutely love their two duets, I can't get them out of my head. I also really loved their scene when Quinn was rolling up the ramp, it was just so cute. It was one of those moments that keep me from hating Quinn completely, to be honest.

Now I'm gonna try and control my squeals why I talk about my favorite part of the episode, Matt Bomer. Besides Glee, White Collar is one of my favorite shows and when I heard he was guest starring I almost keeled over with excitement. His role lived up to my excitement because he was freaking hilarious! I almost died laughing during his master class. The pointing and the yelling was just insane. He was hilarious but then his performances were just stellar as well. The Duran Duran mash-up was so fantastic and how gorgeous was he during the song?! Speaking of attractive men, can we talk about Blaine in the shower during Fighter?!  Oh my god, now that's a way to come back after a hiatus.

The other biggest storyline was the Finn and Rachel storyline.

After On My Way I was really wondering if there was any weight to when Finn said, "it's now or never" at the courthouse. Glee loves to do things like that. I feel like that was all resolved while he was talking to Puck though. When Puck hypothesized Finn and Rachel not getting married right after graduation, Finn was adamant and quick to respond, that "yes, it was going to happen". That right there squashed any slight doubt in my mind that Finn and Rachel might not get married. 

The writers have been building up Finn's future for a while now and I think this episode was a really important turning point. For most of the season we've seen Finn lost without any faith in himself. Now we're starting to see him believe in himself, in regards to his future. Although I'm pretty sure we all know this California thing isn't going to work out, at least now he's starting to realize that he can succeed after high school. I think although at the end of this episode it led to a disagreement between Finn and Rachel, it's going to ultimately lead to Finn planning a future for himself, which I love. I'm never happy when Finn and Rachel fight but I saw this more as two people reconciling how to live and grown with the person you love. Yeah, they both got worried and upset but it wasn't because they were unhappy with one another. They were both trying to figure out how to make their relationship work in the midst of everything changing. This is something I would much rather watch then seeing Quinn or Jesse come in and try to tear them apart. These storylines are just so much more gratifying because of how amazing Cory and Lea feed off each other in the scenes together. I definitley can't wait to see this develop and resolve itself.

Till next week!

xoxo,
Amanda
