Glee : Dream On


Dream On is exactly what the title implies. Dream on, but your dreams will never come true. That's what Bryan Ryan, Will's friend from high school tells the Glee Club. And how true that is! Most of our dreams will never be realised, but somehow we are still dumb enough to pursue them and hope that they will come true, and when they don't, we feel so terribly disappointed. Some advice, guys, don't hope, it'll crush you.


Back to the show, Will's rival, Bryan turns up and tells the Glee kids their dreams will not come true. He wants to shut down the Glee club, but Will takes him out for a drink, they sing a song together and Will convinces him to audition for a play. He decides not to cut Glee Club. On the audition day, they sing a a duet, and Bryan is so obviously better than will that it's ridiculous when Will gets the role. Hey, people, if you want to do this storyline, get someone who can't sing, will ya? Neil Patrick Harris is a very bad choice. Anyway, when Will gets the part, Bryan decides to cut Glee Club. So Will gives the part to him. And he decides not to cut Glee Club. Honestly, how indecisive can he be?


Artie's dream turns out to be dancing, and Tina decides to help him fulfil it, even though it is obviously impossible. Artie tries to stand up using cerebral palsy crutches, but fails. Like duh, of course! Tina does some research and finds treatment methods, not realising that they are all still in the experimental process. When they are finally usable, Artie would probably be dead and buried in his wheelchair. so he gives up his dream, and they kiss, blah blah blah.


Rachel's dream turns out to be....surprise! Finding her mummy! I never expected Rachel to be the sentimental kind, more of the "I wanna be a star!"  kind, you know. But she wants to find her mother, and Jesse decides to help her. But it's not entirely his decision, it's what he's supposed to do. Actually, the coach of Vocal Adrenaline is.... IDINA MENZEL!!!!!!! Oooops, I mean she's Rachel's mum, but the other one's more interesting. Anyway, she sent Jesse to seduce Rachel and bring her home to mama. Which didn't make sense at all.


Firstly, you send your lead singer to bring home your daughter? Won't that cripple your own group? Secondly, why does he have to seduce her? Thirdly, there are so many guys she can call. Why Jesse? The whole thing is rather ridiculous. She gets Jesse to give Rachel a tape with her singing 'I Dreamed A Dream' which was supposed to 'explain it all'. Didn't explain much to me.

Next week is GAGA! Yeah, the cast will be singing Lady Gaga's songs, whihc includes Poker Face by Idina Menzel and Bad Romance by Chris Colfer. This is gonna be fun! Hopefully it'll distract me from the terrible storyline.
