Okay I have to give it to the cast from GLEE last night. They knocked it out of the park. In an episode called "Born this Way" the student singing group confronted a lot of issues about themselves that they weren't proud of. They talked about bullying, the effects of not having self esteem and most of all acceptance.
It was a huge step for a show that I feel has a responsibilities to these millions of kids that are tuning into every word that they say. I thought last night was great. Especially the "Unpretty/I Feel Pretty" duet. It was lovely. Understated but lovely.
I can just hope that high schoolers get the message.
Bravo Glee.
