Okay, here is the truth of the matter. I am mad at Mercedes. Not Benz, but the Glee girl. In the beginning of the series, she was such a fun character, I liked her a lot. She could SING, I love her voice. She had swagger and sass, and watching her friendship with Kurt develop was a lovely story arc. And then for some reason, she went from a fun, sassy character who is always there for her friends and an integral part of New Directions, to crazy self-absorbed diva girl. I mean, she totally changed her character and no one seemed to notice. Which is fine, whatever. But then she left New Directions, joined a new show choir and stole members from the old choir. Not cool at all. Then she directly competed with her old choir, after the old choir spent the last 3 months being super nice and accommodating to her even though she totally didn’t deserve it. I am not saying that New Directions was always perfect, but on the whole, she totally behaved like a baby. After her new choir lost sectionals, for some reason she is asked to rejoin New Directions with Rachel agreeing to let Mercedes solo more. I mean seriously? On what basis? And what did she learn from this? And now everyone loves her again. Well not me. I am still mad. I hold a grudge. Why didn’t they say “fine I guess you can come back but no solos until you have proven that you won’t be a wiener anymore and show up late and leave us in the lurch?” Every time I watch a Glee episode these days I feel a little more angry at her. What did this character learn from the experience? Be a jerk and screw your friends over and if it doesn’t work out hey no problem everyone will forgive and forget. Well I haven’t, Mercedes, I am holding a grudge until you have proven yourself worthy again.
