House md and Glee are two VERY different shows and it's kinda obvious cause although at some point they both were airing at the same time they have very different settings and overall stories
But I thought the experience and... emotions I would get watching Glee will be the same as when I watched House first time – pure joy, excitement, brain singnaling "new! new is good!"
Chugging Glee down for the past few days instead of House (as I used two for the last... i guess... 4 months) made me feel very weird
I mean Glee has this strong high school sitcom girly show vibe and it's nothing compared to House in terms of character development and relationships – House has them more complicated, long-shot, muuuuuch less romance and fluff and stuff – and this just made me realise how many of these things I'm likely to never experience in my life.
Watching House I kinda got used to associating with adult characters, embracing their mentality – not that I'm a kid – I'm a 2nd year uni stud – but all the House characters are 30+ yo
Watching Glee of course my brain tried to do the same associating thing and since most of the chatacters there are high schoolers – little younger than me and MUCH more younger mentally (at least that's how it feels) – it felt like coming down to their age and "returning to school" a little
And all this sweet high school drama, romantic flaws, healthy parent‐kid relationships, school clubs and social life – I've never experienced any of this and likely am not in the future cause this period of my life has already passed!
Watching House I've never even thought about this things cause it's main focus is on things that I can still accomplish and feel and have a taste of when I grow older, it felt so great, like learing and preparing for the bigger and much more complicated adult life which I'm only about to have
Watching Glee – although sure it's addictive and fun – makes me feel this unfilled void very acutely... And it hurts :(
