It was about 8:00pm and I found myself watching a new show called Glee on channel 5. The show was about a high school choir made up of a lot of different characters.
The more I watched the more I couldn't turn the channel. These teenagers had learn to express themselves very well through song.
Tonight's, episode was about a member of the Glee club named Kurt who is Homosexual and his father has a heart attack. Kurts friends struggle to comfort him spirtually but he does not believe in God.
While Kurt is struggling with faith his closet friend Fin has found God in a burn on a grilled cheese sandwich shaped like Jesus' face and prays to it until a counselor tells him. Sometimes a sandwich is just a sandwich.
Then finally a Glee Club member Mercedes who also sings in a church choir invites Kurt to a service dedicated to his father.
Fox has created an excellent show with a very young and gifted cast. Glee gives us what a show of it's caliber has not in years. Insight into the teenage world
through song without being to corny.
I almost forgot their is this actress who plays Rachel Berry a Jewish Glee Club member who sounds just like a young Barbra Streisand. Her real name is Lea Michele Sarfati and was born in The Bronx.
One Life, One Nation, One World.
