And That's What You Missed

"I want to watch Glee," Heidi said early last spring.

I reluctantly agreed. It seemed unappealing to me to re-watch something that didn't seem that far away.

That was 120 episodes ago. Tonight, we watch the series finale, which originally aired on March 20, 2015. More than anything else, I have been struck by how much has changed since the show started 15 years ago. Politics, social norms, the lives of the cast, and our lives, too, are all in much different places now. Some things have evolved, others have regressed; there have been gains and losses, successes and failures. But I still love Burt Hummel, although I'm only now realizing that Kurt is the heart and soul of the show. 

Overall, Heidi was right. It's been a worthwhile six months, and I will miss it.
