Never Been Kissed

This ep of "Glee" was both silly and serious. Silly because of all that "cool off" nonsense concerning the boys-especially Finn and Sam-trying not to go all the way with Rachel and Quinn and Sam's-and many others'-solution being to think of Coach Beiste trying to be sexual. Serious because of Kurt's issues of being the only out gay student at his school and his constant tormenting by one big football player by the name of Karofsky which addresses the recent bullying/suicides of many real-life gay teens. Kurt himself meets someone who may be interested in him that way when he encounters Blaine from a rival school with a rival glee team for sectionals. I'll stop there and just say that despite the silliness of some of the plot I mentioned, it becomes quite touching concerning both Kurt and Beiste's scenes and the way they're handled. And it opens up the characterizations of Beiste, Karofsky, and the friendship of Puck and Artie when the last two start spending some time together. So on that note, this was another pretty good episode of "Glee".
