Kurt Killed Glee

30Oct11

Turns out popular high-school musical TV show Glee isn’t so popular anymore. According to USA Today ratings have fallen drastically ever since the Super Bowl episode.

Admittedly I was never a big fan, I mainly watched it because of the addictive voice of Lea Michele. The rest of the show was also mildly amusing for a while with some good actors, funny characters and a high tempo.

But eventually I think this show was killed by the gay agenda. It was just Kurt, Kurt, Kurt. Not that I mind gay characters, there is almost one in every TV show these days. What I do mind is too much of something that wasn’t that interesting to begin with. And hardly any scenes were about Mercedes being black, Rachel being Jewish or Santana being both Hispanic – and gay. Instead it was super important to tell the viewers every problem associated with being a gay male – in every single episode.

According to the article above the ratings have fallen because the show “relied too heavily on guest stars, outlandish plots and inconsistencies among characters”. But if you look at the comments to this article and on other sites, it is clear that many feel like me in this – Kurt killed Glee.
