Hi! I'm nature_aly at lj, but that shouldn't mean much to anyone since i'm really not very active in the Glee fandom. I like to read fic and leave comments (I'm new to leaving comments, but I'm trying really hard to not be a lurker anymore.) I want to spend time at this comm because I'm sick of all the hate on the various lj communities I used to like to visit.
I first watched Glee when they aired the pilot as a sneak preview in the spring. My boyfriend and I were so excited for the show and I liked all the characters, I think I went online to rewatch the pilot at least twice that summer. When the show started airing in the fall it was opposite Criminal Minds, which we had been watching for years already, so we taped Glee to watch later. I suffered extreme second hand embarrassment at the performance of Push It and my boyfriend watched Acafellas on his own when I had to work late and did not like it as much as the first two. When I continued to have to work Wednesday nights, we just stopped watching the show.
I did not end up getting interested in the show again until it was in its first huge hiatus and I decided to give it another chance and buy that season 1 part 1 DVD set. We watched all the episodes and I fell completely in love with Kurt. I found the fandom and shipped Kurt/happiness, with Finn and Puck and Mike, and Matt and whoever else, it didn't matter. I loved the second half of season 1, especially 4 Minutes, when I realized baby boy got tall.
Season two happened and Blaine happened and there was no way I was ever going to stop watching the show again. The first Glee album I actually spent money on was the Warbler album and I still listen to it while working out. (I also have a Chris workout playlist because he inspires me to keep going.)
My boyfriend has since quit Glee, around Asian F he just got sick of Glee not being funny anymore. I still love it, but don't watch it live anymore (he does the same for me and records Kitchen Nightmares, because I refuse to watch that show).
