Well i doubt Darren is sick of playing gay, well the serenade of the GAP guy was a bit creepy but the truth is that he hasn't kiss any guy yet, the gays in american shows talk a lot about being gay but they have little action (in fact Kurt kissed a girl a lot more times than a guy, he is a totally virgin in romantic kisses, and in all the rest). I don't think there's any reasons to change Blaine (people seems to like him the way he is, and in fact any straight character has the impact he has, and i think it's quite possible that Darren wouldn't have the same exposure if he played a straight character). And it sends a lot of wrong messages (if Blaine wasn't out and proud it would be different). And it's quite scary because i think when you make a gay character bi, it's because you want him with a female character. I have to say that i thought that Sam wasn't gay because Chord Overstreet doesn't want to play gay, but if i have to be honest, i really doubt that a newbie like Chord (or Darren) has any power to change what's on script, and the truth is that Darren was hired knowing he was gonna play a gay character. So i doubt he or his management have a problem with that.
The way Ryan Murphy talk about kurt storyline could make me believe that this is just one of this internet silly rumours blowing out of proportion, but the last time i refuse to believe a rumour about a gay character (i really thought that ATWT writers couldn't be that stupid to kill Reid and leave a legacy character like Luke alone in the end of the show) i was wrong. So i expect the worst. I hope they know what they are going to do, because that kind of storyline has the potential to ruin a likeable character

If it's really Blaine, I wonder if Darren Criss has a say in it. Maybe he is sick of playing gay. And want to lovey-dovey with some lady. Hahaha. I'm totally with JJOSE712 on this, and rather than this potential spoiler being a result of Darren wanting to "lovey dovey" a female, I actually suspect it would be totally the opposite, and does Darren a disservice to even suggest it. He's made it very clear (eg the Ellen interview) that not only is he perfectly happy to be playing a gay character, but that the positive representation of gay people on TV is something that is important to him politically as well. Plus... ...this too- does anyone really think a new actor on a hit show, hired to play a specific character, is - within a few episodes- going to turn around and demand that the character be changed? However, I will say, if they turn Blaine bi, then I'm outta here- I was so irritated with the way they did that with Jorge in FOQ, that I know I have no tolerance for watching that crock again.

Yes, Jorge storyline was a total trainwreck. If Blaine turn out to be bi, they probably go the love triangle route, it seems that in all gay triangles must be a girl int he middle. And frankly, Ryan Murphy said that Kurt won't be a victim, but after all the bad that happens to him, that his out and proud object of affection will be interested in girl is the nail in the coffin

From this month Out Magazine where Darren Criss is on the Cover www.out.com/slideshows/?slideshow_title=Darren-Criss-The-New-Kid-on-the-Block&theID=2#TopI highly doubt they are going to have Blaine come out as Bi at the end episode (2x14) since they going to Santana come out or at hint her being bi in 2x15 and it be nice follow up following Blaine question whether bisexuality is real. Are they really going to have two character come out as bi in back to back episodes?

If Ryan Murphy really wanted to have a realistic storyline with Blaine questioning himself if he is bi, he made a really bad job introducing the character. If he wasn't the out and proud mentor of Kurt, nobody will have a problem with Blaine being bi or questioning himself. The problem is Blaine was introduced as an out and proud gay teen, and right now we have to believe that Blaine is so shallow that he wasn't question himself if he like girls before coming out.
Sorry, but this is make for the shock value only, and if it's not well done i think a lot of people will be done with the show. Most people didn't like the idea at all, and it's not only about Blaine, it's about Kurt, Ryan Murphy always said that he doesn't want him to be a victim, but the truth is that has a crush for a straight guy who react bad, his dad (the only person he has in the world) almost die, he was bully and threatened at the school, and now, the openly gay guy who is falling for is into girl. Come one, this is just too much to handdle
And if this is the only way he thinks to keep them apart i have to say that the show has no future. I fear the openly gay Blaine will end being bi only by name and dating all the female cast.
And if the rumoured love triangle for Kurt is with Blaine and a girl, i'm done with the show, because that was done to death, and even ATWT was more realistic than this development

I think I will wait the episode air which I think Feb 22 before making any final decision.

Yes, because what Murphy said is really ambiguous, it would match with him having sex with a girl or having philosophical discussion about the reality of bisexuality (or a lot of things in between). I just simply find odd that someone who obviously had to think about all this questions before coming out, is suddenly questioning himself again. It's not the same for a straight character, because when you match the majority there's a good posibility that you never thought in the other possibilities (of course there are a lot of straight guys who have doubts in their teens). But even in that cases the storylines usually are really bad done, because a guy who never question his attraction for girls is because he is obviously attracted by them, and usually this kind of storylines end with the guy coming out as gay, wich doesn't have any sense either (other different thing is when the guy shows doubts or is clearly using his girlfriend as a beard).
Física o química had a lot of this kind of changes in the last seasons and it was a total disaster. I know Glee is a polarizing show, but i really enjoy it, and i hope this just doesn't spoil the fun.
Of course all the Blaine storyline could be only a preview for the next episode centered in Santana. The truth is that the show has two bisexual characters and right now it's not handdle them well

So there's basically two options. Blaine is drunk and kiss (or is kissed) by a girl, and he has doubts, coming to the conclusion that he is not gay at the end of the episode. Or he is some kind of narrow minded who doesn't believe in bisexuality, and the episode is about him open his eyes, and allowing to introduce Santana's storyline Or maybe a combination of both

Yay.... i can not wait to see the kiss between rachel and blaine ... i think it will be interesting to see a 'newer' bi side of Blaine x

if RM didn't lie, there's no bi side And to be honest i would prefer to see the gay side first because after the next episode, both openly gay character will kiss a girl first. At this rate the first gay character who will get a romantic kiss with other guy will be Karovsky

Well, after seeing the pics, i think that Burt is probably the best parent a gay teen could have

I hope the spoiler speculation it's true, because i want Kurt back in the McKinley, and maybe Blaine could follow him a couple of weeks later. With Kurt in the McKinley, they can develop Karovsky storyline, i hope they take their time doing it and don't rushing it, because if they'll do in the right way it could be a great storyline

I love Blaine so much, and really enjoyed last weeks episode even though I was extremely wary of it. Thanks for all the spoilers. I am looking forward to the coming weeks. I did see a random warbler post on twitter that the warblers had rapped for the last time. Maybe this is an indication that Blaine is either coming to McKinley or he disappears, or he is still in the warblers but we just don't hear them perform!

I think Blaine will miss Kurt, and he will follow him to McKinley, not only to be with him, but to face his own demons. He runaway the first time, and now his is a confident guy he will be ready to the "real" world.
I hope they'll do a good job with Dave's coming out. I prefer him not be outed, but outing himself after gain some kind of self acceptation. The same way that i think it would be a very bad idea the couple Kurt-Karofsky, i think Dave has a great potential as character, and could develop to a very different kind of character, he showed hints that he can be a nice guy (at least for short periods). If Kurt and Blaine are in McKinley both can support him (in fact i think all Glee club will support him) but he needs to make Kurt forgive him first.
I'm pretty sure Blaine won't dissapear of the show, maybe he will be absent for a couple of episodes, but Darren is too popular (and his itunes power is something nobody can deny) to get rid of him. Glee usually make recurring characters come back to the show like Kristin Chenoweth and i read somewhere that Jonathan Groff will be back too, but i think Darren will be a regular soon

I am almost certain that Darren will be a regular. He is extremely popular, not just in glee but as Harry Potter in A very potter Musical. Have you seen it?? It is amazing. I had watched it before Darren joined glee and I remember sitting there watching glee and thinking all the way through the episode that I recognised Blaine and I couldn't believe it was from a Harry Potter online musical. He seems such a genuine guy too. I LOVE him!! Isn't teenage dream one of the best selling glee songs??
I also think a kurt/dave pairing is a very bad idea. It just wouldn't work. Even though I think Dave could redeem himself and could become a very strong and awesome character. I am also bias because I love Max Adler who plays him!!!

Hmm, only candles and raise your glass work for me. Have to say I'm not really impressed with raise your glass. I mean, they sound awesome and all and their voices are great, but the catchyness (did I just make up a word?) of the song isn't really captivated in that song.
On the other hand, I was kind of stunned by candles. I don't know the original and don't intend to ever get to know it because Chris blew me away with his first few words. Goosebumps all over the place! Also, it sounded NOT AUTOTUNED! Now, I'm not an expert, so I'm not sure, but I do love it for that!

Yeah the song Candles is done by the Group Hey Monday.
I'm surprised Glee would even cover a song from a band like that... Not that I don't like them... Im actually a huge fan of Hey Monday and I love that they have a girl lead singer but its not the type of band you hear on the radio a whole lot... If you are into the indie/Rock/Pop music stuff then you've probably heard of them.
I have to agree with you on Raise your glass.. I love how they performed it but i'm not sure if it was the best song choice.
and OMG.. The kiss was incredible!

Well, his first kiss was with Brittany, and to be honest i think Kurt enjoyed more Brittany's kisses that Dave's one. Being kissed by someone who scare you to death is not something to be remembered. To be avaliable for Kurt, Karofsky needs a long redemtion, and to be honest i don't think it would be a good idea to do that route. I like Dave as character, and i think showing his evolution will make a good storyline, but if they decide to pair Karofsky (and even if the guy is not Kurt, he will need some time before being datable) i would try a new guy and not Kurt or Blaine
