The Break Up

                   Calm down Glee fans! Yes, Rachel Barry & Finn Hudson are no longer Finchel. And yes, Blaine did cheat on Kurt, so they are also no more....but aren't you at all happy that Will and Emma (Wemma) are working through things, as of next week's episode, possibly?

 

                    I'm not going to lie. Glee is one of my favorite television shows and a guilty pleasure. I have the biggest girl crush on Lea Michele and I love how they have made her more of a woman this season than her frumpy school girl look. And yes, just like the Twihards out there who swoon over Bella and Edward, I too am a romantic and want Finchel to not take too long of a hiatus and get back together.

 

                  Isn't it strange how invested we get in these make believe relationships? Come on, don't even act like you were not the same way with Rachel Green and Ross Gellar?! I remember the "we were on a break" episode very vividly!! I wonder why it is we do invest time into relationships that are not even real. Is it because these fairytales are something we hope our relationships to be? Or is it just the pure entertainment of being able to relate to these relationships too?

 

              I was in elementary school and junior high during Friends. Now that I am in my 20's, I feel I can relate and understand the storylines much more. And I am sure when I get to my 30's it will be the exact same way. Perspectives change as you grow older and its because of the life you experience. So, I find it fascinating that a junior high or high school kid gets overly protective of the characters they admire (or loathe) on television. But, I can definitely relate!

 

           I am sure that I am not the only person out there who has a favorite TV couple. I mean there are so many classic couples to love too: The Cosby's, The Cunninghams, The Jeffersons....hey, even Homer and Marge Simpson! Television has progressed so much in the last 50 years...even in the last 20 (since I have been around). What is crazy is that as real as television is trying to be, they cannot help but ad the additional make believe crap to keep us a little more entertained!

 

Until next time!
