task 1 = drama review =)


Glee is a musical comedy television series airing on Fox. It was created by Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan. The series focuses on a high school show choir, also known as a glee club, in the fictional William McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio.

In episode4 which is Duets, we can see that new kid Sam finally joins the Glee club and is soon perused by Kurt, who believes him to be gay. This ramps up very quickly when Will decides a little competition is in order and decrees the couple who performs the best duet will win a dinner for two at a local restaurant.
Finn and Rachel think they have it in the bag, but wanting to keep Sam in the club, they decide to rig the vote and perform the most offensive song they can find. However, the rest of the duos want to win and set out to perform the best numbers that they can.

After ditching Brittany after she suggests the two girls perform a Melissa Etheridge song, Santana teams with Mercedes and they perform a diva-filled version of River Deep, Mountain High and Tina and Mike perform Sing! from A Chorus Line.

After having a heart to heart with his recovering father, Kurt realises he can't keep going after straight guys hoping they are, in fact, gay and he releases Sam from the commitment he made to sing with him and opts to do a duet with himself, performing a stonking version of Le Jazz Hot from Victor/Victoria. After teaming up with a reluctant Quinn, she and Sam perform Lucky and end up winning the competition. Their free dinner turns out to be their first date.Sensing Kurt's unhappiness of not being able to find somebody to not just duet with, but to be with, Rachel asks if he would be her duet partner, even though the competition is over, and the two do a lovely mash-up of two classic Judy Garland songs.

From what I have seen, they workhard in order to achieve their succses.  Their determination brings what they want at the end. They never give up and find the best ways in order to solve their problems.
