Glee's Never Been Kissed Episode

GLEE “Never Been Kissed” Season 2 Episode 6 – On tonight’s episode of Glee, Puck returned from juvie, Darren Criss made his debut as Blaine, all the kids’ hormones seemed to go into overdrive, and the show took on the very timely topic of bullying. Whew!

As hard as it was to watch Kurt and Coach Beiste endure such cruelty, I did like how their two storylines paralleled each other. Both had never been kissed and both appeared ready to leave McKinley High. However, Coach Beiste’s ending was a little bit happier than Kurt’s. She got her first kiss in a tender scene with Mr. Schue, while Kurt’s first kiss was with the bully who has been terrorizing him since last season. I saw this coming a mile away since Buffy the Vampire Slayer did practically the same story (remember Larry?), but that scene was still an OMG! moment.

Even though things did not end well for Kurt, at least he met the adorable Blaine. Seriously, how cute is he? The Warblers cover of “Teenage Dream” was one of the best things I’ve seen on this show all season.

The other main storyline was the return of Puck and his new friendship with Artie. Those two are pretty funny together and their cover of “One Love” was perfect. I was afraid Puck would turn Artie into a mini-Puck, but it looks like Artie might actually be a good influence on Puck and keep him out of trouble.

Last year in the sixth episode, “Vitamin D,” Mr. Schue pitted the boys against the girls in a mash-up competition. In this, the sixth episode of season two, he did the same thing, but the twist was that the boys had to sing songs traditionally sung by women, and the ladies had to sing a masculine mash-up. They didn’t really announce a winner, although I think it was implied that the boys won since Coach Beiste forgave them. Who do you think should have won? The “Stop in the Name of Love”/”Free Your Mind” mash-up or the “Start Me Up”/”Livin’ on a Prayer” mash-up?

I really liked the anti-bullying message on this episode of Glee, even if it was a little heavy handed. In light of what’s been going on lately, the message of “courage” seemed especially relevant. My other favorite part of the episode was the addition of Blaine as a possible love interest for Kurt, and The Warblers as New Directions’ competition at sectionals. Those guys are good and it should be interesting to see them face off against New Directions.

What did you think of the “Never Been Kissed” episode of Glee? What did you think of the introduction of Darren Criss as Blaine?

Production companies by 20th Century Fox Television and Ryan Murphy Television. The last season ‘Pilot’ finale successfuly end on May 19, 2009 (Tuesday 9 P.M).

Set in a fictional Ohio high school, it follows Spanish teacher Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison), who takes up the down-on-its-luck glee club to recapture the youthful passion he had when he and his baby-frenzied wife (Jessalyn Gilsig) first met. Faced with a tiny pool of talent beyond prima donna Rachel (Lea Michele, donning Reese Witherspoon’s Tracy Flick from Election), he recruits quarterback-cum-secret-shower-singer Finn (Cory Monteith) into joining, setting the two up as the leads.

New Directions, the aptly devised new name for the chorus group, is marching through an uphill battle: overshadowed (and by associated underfunded, leaving Will to pay for the program out of pocket) by the cheerleaders – the “Cheerios” – and their caustic leader Sue (the perfectly snappy Jane Lynch, whom without the character would never work), they have to work, song-by-song, to be taken seriously. Musical numbers as elaborate and explosive as a Broadway production from their main rival notwithstanding.

Matthew Morrison as Will Schuester
Lea Michele as Rachel Berry
Cory Monteith as Finn Hudson
Jessalyn Gilsig as Terri Schuester
Jayma Mays as Emma Pillsbury
