24 Incredible Teen Show Monologues

…Okay, fine, this one is totally cheating because Chris Colfer DID win an Emmy for it. But I’m still going to talk about it, because I love it. “Grilled Cheesus” is the best Glee ever was, perfectly balancing absurdist, over-the-top humor while also serving a genuine look at teen issues, including dealing with the mortality of your own parents, loss of religion and faith, and societal and religious views on being gay. For once, Glee actually achieved the perfect balance, and I think that’s all because of Colfer, who truly carried this episode. You completely felt everything he was going through.
