One of the main flaws to Season 1 and Season 2 was Kurt not accepting responsibility for his actions. I'm all for gay people being proud of who they are, but when you push your ideals onto other people it goes too far. Everyone called the writers out for writing Kurt as a somewhat non-redeemable gay stereotype who made the gay community look bad. They attempted to make him "held responsible" for his actions midway through Season 2, but it was more or less just him getting bullied and everyone around him rallying together to help/protect him which is entirely different.

To me, Kurt is probably the least likeable or relate-able character on the show which is chock full of handfuls of other highschool stereotypes who don't seem to stretch further than what they're written to be just to win over that "audience".

Ironically he could have been the most well done characters on the show.

I think we can also say that everyone shoved their ideals in everyone's face. So, that argument doesn't really work at all.

It's more heartbreaking to see that the only close-to-being relate-able character, Sam, is being written off within the first few episodes of Season 3 after just going through the trouble of showing how much it can hurt you trying to hold onto glory and then can fall so hard, finding someone in the place you'd last look and how hard the economical climate has effected even the most common of families. Even if he's probably going on to pursue other ventures in acting, it really sucks that the show is losing one of it's biggest characters that people can actually say "Yeah, been there..." with.

TLK I agree with basically everything you said about Kurt. Honestly one of the things that made me almost stop watching the show was when I saw that very moment where Kurt and Finn move in and then kurt's dad kicks him out for reacting like a normal teenage guy.

I find Kurt unrelatable in almost every way.

The Kurt character has had more character flaws and regression of the gay community than I've ever seen. It's absurd how badly they've written the character. They write him as if he's an 8 year old.

That's the point. None of the show does those words justice and I've watched the show to see that I personally think it sucks.

Well give yourself a pat on the back there. You rehashed what many people have said before in a way that is not new or different or constructive. A+ right there.
