Things Glee and Guts Have in Common

-Adding Glee to my lineup of TV shows was one of the best decisions I have made this fall.  Nickelodeon's "Guts" hasn't been on the air for almost 15 years.  We will say that about Glee one day.

-Both shows have quite a competitive spirit.  While on Guts, three kids are competing for a piece of the Aggrocrag, on Glee, the examples of competition are endless.  Between the boys and girls of glee club, between Mr. Schuester and Jane Lynch's character, between the cool kids and the losers.  the Glee Club itself competes with other schools, that's kinda the point of its existence.  I don't know who is going to win yet, but if I had to guess, it will be the Glee Club.  It's as obvious as the fact that the girl will never win on Guts.

-Mike O'Malley, our favorite host of Guts, has been making recurring appearances as Kurt's father on Glee.     Who knew this guy was still around, but I am very happy to see you.  You are not as old as I thought you'd be after all this time. 

-The last thing these shows have in common, is how badly I want/wanted to be on them.  My childhood dream was to climb that aggrocrag and shoot nerf arrows while on a bungee harness.  And currently, I must find a way to be on Glee.  Ever since I saw Grease 2, I have been hoping to re-experience the magic of high school kids breaking into song in a weekly televised format.  And since I wasn't alive when Grease 2 was made, Glee might be my only chance because I was meant to attend a singing high school.  For now, I'll have to settle for being on Glee in my imagination. Which isn't a bad way to go.  I had a dream I won Global Guts for America and it feels very real to this day!
