Get Over Yourself, Quinn Fabray

I don’t know about you but I am sick of Quinn Fabray’s plot lines on Glee. I wish that I could climb through the TV, walk right up to the blonde, and slap her across the face. The girl is so determined to ruin everyone’s life around her to make her own work. Sure, she is in high school and trying to find herself, I buy that. But a girl who will sink so far as to call child services on the woman raising her child, sleep her way to the top, and backstab every person around her has no redeemable qualities. Never once does Quinn consider her actions, and her lame apology at the end of Season 3’s sectional episode when she tells Rachel she will not be telling on Shelby’s relationship with Puck I have trouble buying. The girl was willing to give Terri a baby to pass off as her own, cheated on both Finn and Sam, spied on the New Directions from the inside, and has even said rude things to Mercedes who let her move in with no questions asked when Quinn was unable to stay at her house during the pregnancy. The girl has her few redeeming moments, but I can’t decide if the writers are having trouble deciding on a plot line for Quinn or if they really intend her to be that unstable. Enough Quinn – step off your high horse and get a life.

Good for New York Film Academy graduate Chord Overstreet as Sam when he tells Quinn that he would never consider helping her raise her child and that she has a lot of life lessons to learn. Chord Overstreet had a fantastic return to Glee as Sam last night. He was just as smiley and charismatic as we remember him. Not to mention his dancing has drastically improved. Check out this great video of him singing “Red Solo Cup.”

A big shout out as well to fellow NYFA grad Naya Rivera who rocked as Santana in this “Survivor/I Will Survive” mash-up. That girl is fierce and the Troubletones really did a great job. Though I am still unsure who the random backup dancers are? Somehow they can never find new members for the New Directions and the girls disappear when the teams merge into one super group at the end of the episode? It wouldn’t be Glee without a few unexplained plotlines.

Looks like the New Directions are headed to finals!
