Glee | Episode 11 | Hairography ... deaf choir sings "Imagine"
By Alden E. Habacon
Last night's episode of GLEE was not just entertaining and nostalgic of Grease. Episode 11, titled "Hairography," took Kurt Hummel's crush on Finn Hudson and cleverly wove it into the already complex love-polygon that is the everyday life of McKinley High. From a media perspective, It fizzled away all the (wah-wah-wah) excuses heard from television producers around casting "of-colour-talent", and debunked an even bigger myth that people with disabilities can't be successfully portrayed in something as big as "the newest craze on TV." Perhaps in same way that Heroes has proven that American audiences will watch something with subtitles. Sure, the guest star was rapper, Eve. That has its draw. But stealing the show was the heart-felt rendition of John Lennon's Imagine, performed by a deaf choir. Ground-breaking for TV!
