I think the character is a symptom of the real problem (awful writing).

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, the writing is so self-indulget and inconsistent. It's awful.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
I agree completely. To be honest, I think the show had its moments but the criminally uneven writing really killed it for me.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yep.

... Not a good font choice there. (And the color sure doesn't help.)

My first thought on seeing it was "why?"

I don't think he is. He was introduced pretty early,and the show as still going strong then. I don't even think he's a self-insert, he was written as the "perfect boyfriend" for Kurt - if anything, that's the self-insert.

I think Kurt and Blaine take turns being Ryan Murphy's self-insert. Which I guess means that Ryan Murphy wants to fuck himself?

Very elaborate masturbation, that's for sure.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
'masturbatory' does describe Glee pretty well

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
He was supposed to be Kurt's mentor, and Kurt's boyfriend was going to be a football player. But Darren was so popular they made him the boyfriend the instead.

And Rachel is more of a self-insert than Kurt is, but that always gets overlooked because Murphy's a gay guy and Rachel's a girl.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Rachel is more the perfect daughter Ryan Murphy wishes he had.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's how I see it, too.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
I find this difficult to read. :( Pink on green doesn't help.

God, this. I did manage it (though I don't actually have anything to say since I still liked him when I stopped watching, but that was seasons ago; you probably have a point) but...maybe go with a different color combo next time.

"I can't help but feel he's the reason GLEE went to shit. (Mind you I mean the character, NOT the actor!) He just reads/sounds like such a self-insert.

He's great at everything! Everyone loves him! He stood up to bullies and won! Even girls fall in love with him! He's the best singer ever! He schooled his boyfriend's dad in how to parent! He basically cheats but it's not his fault! Despite being gay he's still a manly man and even the guys like him!!1!!1111!!

*Note the sarcasm pls.
Also, despite being gay comment meant that they treat almost other gay character like they're diseased or incapable of normal human behaviour.

He could have been great, a truly inspiring character with actual flaws and development. Instead they *cough*RyanMurphy*cough* made him flat and boring and changed GLEE from 'The Rachel Berry Show' into 'The Rachel Berry and Blaine Anderson Show (Now With Extra Romantic Drama!)' "

Props to Transcript!Anon for always doing this.

The show had other problems unrelated to Blaine, although he doesn't help.

If anything, I thought he read as the real self-insert's (ie Kurt's) fairytale unicorn boyfriend, and that was why he was blandly perfect. But then I stopped watching some time ago.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-21 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
Is Glee still a thing? Either way, I hope Darren is on to bigger and better things (I'm intrigued by his upcoming turn as Hedwig).

[personal profile] glo_unit 2015-02-21 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
As someone else has already said, the biggest problem with the show was bad writing. I was just easiest to see with Blaine and how perfect he is, despite the terrible things he did.

He's definitely one of the reasons I dropped the show. Kurt too, honestly.
