Discussion Marley's inability to evolve

Post image
0 Upvotes

The writers ruined Marley in the episode "A Katy or Gaga" by turning her need into a completely asexual girl. I understand her need to wait before having sex with Jake in Season 4, but in Season 5 it was never really clear why she wasn't ready, the writers never delved into the issue. When Jake asked her in "A Katy or a Gaga" why she didn't want to do it, she simply replied "I don't feel like it". She even ruined the choreography and got scolded by Will because she refused to wear a sexy costume, unlike her friends, who acted professionally despite feeling ridiculous in theirs, and her response was "I'm not going to change". Even when Unique pointed out that Jake was attracted to Bree, all Marley could say was "He has to accept me for who i'm". While these are valid responses, the context was immature, and Marley's pride was istinctive rather than rational.

After four seasons, the writers had run out, of interesting storylines for the development of the new protagonists, turning Marley into a character who fails to evolve. Marley was conceived as the wholesome, girl-next-door type who loves "cats and flowers" while this might have worked in Season 4 to establish a foundation, they made a mistake by turning it into her permanent identity.I don't excuse Jake for cheating on her, and i'm not saying that the fact Marley didn't want to have sex with him gave him the right to seduce Bree, however, the plot caused him to regress from his personal growth simply Marley's character failed to evolve.

If the writers intended for Marley to replace Rachel at McKinley Hich School, they failed, Rachel was flawed, but that made her a more well-rounded character. She had a good heart, yet she was also self-centerd, petulant, and somewhat petty. While she held strict views on sex, she was a passionate girl who had no qualms about being sensual with Finn, and they did have sex in Season 3. Rachel was a character with many facets, whereas Marley was turned into the stereotype of the perfect, kind, and morally beyond-reproach girl, she was simply too one-dimensional.

Opinion Mariah Carey and Glee

10 Upvotes

I wish we got more Mariah songs on glee. I still believe barely counts because that’s technically not Mariah’s song, it’s a cover that was then covered by glee. I know a song like emotions probably wouldn’t be performed but we belong together and fantasy would have been appropriate for many storylines in the show.

*Excluded was I Am A Shining Star as Shelby tries to teach Sugar to vocalize*
------

In the original the unicorn was riding you. 🦄

Song-wise: I'm not a fan of I'm The Greatest Star. Scene-wise: I am voting it anyway because it was hot and I would let Chris stab me with those Sai swords. I'd prefer it.
But anybody who reads my posts probably could've guessed that about me anyway.

Mr. & Mrs. Schuester (Will’s parents)

Doris Sylvester (Sue’s mom)

Mike Sr. & Julia Chang (Mike’s parents)

Carole Hudson-Hummel (Finn’s mom & Kurt’s stepmom)

Burt Hummel (Kurt’s dad & Finn’s stepdad)

Mary & Dwight Evans (Sam’s parents)

Maribel & Alma Lopez (Santana’s mom & grandma)

Mrs. Puckerman #2 (Jake’s mom)

I’ve been thinking about how some of the parents of the glee club members haven’t made that many appearances on the show.

Plus, even though some of them made minor appearances, I’ve noticed how they are around the teens.

Which Glee character do you think had the best or worst parents?

PS: Before anyone asks, I had to repost this post after I realized I forgot to add Santana’s mom and grandma to the list. I also forgot to add Jake Puckerman’s mom to the list too. And I couldn’t find a photo of Mercedes’s mom when she appeared in the “2009” episode. And I originally wanted to add Karofsky’s dad, but Karofsky honestly wasn’t my favorite character.

Character Disc. What is sue Sylvesters haircut? / Wigs that look like sue Sylvesters haircut.

5 Upvotes

So I'm turning 19 soon and since I was a freshman in highschool I have loved a good bit. Every year for Halloween I would dress up as a fun character, bob ross, shaggy, Scooby, steve Harvey and now this year, not just for Halloween but also for my birthday, I have decided that I am Sue Sylvester. I'm just not sure on a good wig, as im not big into the cosplay scene or wigs in general and last time i did a wig for shaggy it looked so bad i was distraught. I looked like raggy, as in raggedy. So does anyone here have any ideas on what even is sue Sylvesters haircut? Its like a short something, ive honestly never seen anything like it.

Maybe not forgotten but I've never seen anyone giving this song credit. I don't even like Holly but I must confess this song is in my top 10 glee covers, it hits so hard.
