Reassurance

Okay, so I'm watching Glee's episode 4 and have it paused just after Kurt's dad walks in on him doing the Single Ladies dance.

I need to know now so I can skip this episode if I need to.

Please tell me that I am not about to watch a show about a father completely destroying his son's confidence, self-worth, and soul for being gay/doing things he thinks are not "manly" enough. Please? I really don't think I could watch that right now.

(fwiw I have seen scenes from season 2 that show kurt's dad as supportive and rather awesome, I just don't know if he's always been supportive and awesome, or if it's been a slower transitional process of acceptance)

Nope. Just the opposite, in fact. Kurt and Burt's relationship is one of the things I actually really like about "Glee."

They are swiftly becoming my main source of happy with the show (And I'm only through episode 9) :) Thank you!

I've never watched a single episode of Glee but I was given a flaily recap of the episode because it is apparently awesome and his dad is super supportive

Awesome, thanks!

Burt Hummel is one of the few decent characters on Glee, trufax. It's an emotional episode towards the end, and throughout the series, you have Burt being awesome and supportive of Kurt.

I am so happy to hear that :-D
