Does anyone know if the season 5 “A Previously Unaired Christmas” episode was ACTUALLY an unaired episode that they edited and released, or if they filled it as a bit to fit the timeline of needing a holiday episode?
My roommate and I are rewatching Glee and we always thought it was a bit but everything I try to find online seeming to imply it was an actual episode filmed the year before?? Would love if anyone had any insight or clarification.
Someone pointed how across the Ryan Murphy Universe he really sucks at writing characters who aren’t white (specially white men).
Rewatching glee made me realize that. He took his time with Kurt, Finn, Quinn, and even blaine’s story lines.
Whenever he writes a poc character or gives them a storyline he always takes their shine and gives it to a white character (Santana have sharing her wedding with Kurt, All of Mercedes friendships going to rachel, Ruining Tina’s character, Mike getting paid dust etc.) He never seems to put actual energy into poc characters.
I’d also like to add how Klaine stan’s are majority white …. they tend to get defensive on this topic
Grilled Cheesus is so infuriating like Kurt so clearly says he doesn’t want people to pray and sing Jesus songs and nobody respects it like bro he’s GOING through something everyone is so ridiculously selfish in this episode
(For now)
This is season 1, so it's still somewhat believable. By season 3, Puck looks older than Schuester. And don't get me started on Karofsky. He had a bald spot in season 1.
The war that Will insists on having with Rachel is sooo ridiculous. After the performance of Push It at the school assembly in 1x02 Will decides to "punish" Rachel by taking away her solo, which is logical at first, because yes, she had had the idea of changing the presentation. But then he extends that punishment by not giving her back the solo he gave to Tina. He gives her duet with Finn to Quinn, and on top of that, after she left the Glee club because she didn't feel valued, he has the balls to criticize her for leaving when he did the same thing just ONE episode ago! And now he brought April as her replacement (which I'm not complaining about, bc I love April) but every time he sees Rachel he's ironic with her and makes fun of the play she's doing with Sandy, which everyone knows will be a failure.
"We're really excited to see the play. Save us a seat in the front row."
br0, you're literally the adult here! Act like it!
I’ve always had a love/hate relationship with glee. I’ve watched the whole series dozens of times but something about it still kind of bothered me and I could never place it.
I recently listened to the first episode of the Glee rewatch podcast and hear Ryan Murphy describe the initial premise being a veryyy dark comedy. And then it clicked! I’m rewatching the first season and am seeing the show in a whole new light. Dark comedy is definitely the way to describe it. The show is hilarious. The Push It baby performance, the club on decongestants, the awful insults everyone is throwing at each other.
I think I was viewing the show as a genuine teen drama with comedy elements instead of mostly a comedy with drama. Now all the performances, unnatural quips, and unbelievable storylines make sooo much more sense. I’ve never enjoyed the show more.
All solos are now off the board! Most upvoted comment gets the song eliminated ⬆️
I just started listening to the podcast and I love it. I didn't even know there was one until I saw people talking about it on here. So I hoping you all could recommend some other podcasts about TV shows. I really don't know what's out there. Thanks!

this my apple replay from november glee cast is now my 3 top artists (i started watching glee in october)
Not sure if this has already been posted on here, but I will forever and always be confused as to why Blaine performed at the McKinley High Prom in season 2 when he was still a warbler. Thoughts?
I feel like not many people really liked the episodes that were entirely set in New York at the end of season 5. In my opinion, I thought it felt nice to take a break from all the glee club stuff and just focus on the characters in New York for a little while. Of course I thought Rachel giving up her dream Broadway role to be in a TV show was pretty stupid, but other than that, I liked pretty much all of the storylines in the New York episodes. Did you like the New York episodes?
We held my mom’s funeral today. Afterwards, I needed a distraction and so I drove to the mall to walk around aimlessly. I walked into a store and heard the GLEE cover of Halo/Walking on Sunshine playing. This was especially meaningful as I had just asked my mom an hour prior to send me a sign. She introduced me to Glee and I’ll never forget how she took me to see Glee live in Philly when I was in high school. I’ll forever treasure the picture I have of her giving the loser sign on her head at the concert. While she was in the hospital this month, I would come back to my hotel every night and watch Glee as my comfort show.
Thanks for the sign, mom.
maybe ive just missed it but ive always wonder how people felt about will especially after the og glee kids graduated.
Because season 1 started this madness
In a recent puppy interview for buzz feed Darren Criss (Blaine from glee) said he dreams of being on SNL. How I'd love to make this happen!! https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSjngMTS5/
P. S have any other glee cast members been on SNL?
I love glee. Been like that since I was 13, been a gay awakening ever since, and like many people—this love for glee never left.
One of my friends also loves glee and we're currently rewatching it (currently season 1 since school is beating us up)
One day I was fixating with said friend and my other friends heard it. I yapped about glee with them and the friend that watched it with me just nods along.
I didn't spoil them anything, but i did hijacked a discord call with them and played the iconic River deep mountain high duet by the one and only Divas. They were sold just by that alone.
Keeping it cute, not spoiling anything, and keeping the insanity of the incoherent glee plots away from them. We're gonna watch it this Christmas break. I'll rewatch glee again from season 1 episode 1 if it meant i get to see raw reactions from people who've never heard of it lmaoo.
Anyone else else hear Kurt and Rachel in Wickeds version of defying gravity? Or is it just me 😂
I never liked any of Glee’s covers of Defying Gravity. I think they’re all bad.
Not even from a vocal standpoint, because Rachel, Kurt, and Mercedes all sang just fine
It’s the arrangements. They’re all composed as light and stripped down ballads but I hate the melodies they adapted and the season 5 version doesn’t even end on the iconic run, it just… stops
On a positive note, Rachel and Kurt’s cover of For Good is an underrated gem (even though it’s not in the movie)
Edit: they also did Popular! That one was also good
Isn’t she a pedophile who dated a 7 year old, self centered jerk, annoying
How do ppl like someone as disgusting as her
We're now in single digits on the board! Most upvoted comment gets the song eliminated ⬆️
the horniness rating attributed to each song was up to my discretion
Out of 132 songs in season 1, 48 had overt horny undertones making a whomping 36% total horny song percentage.
Will Schuster (that weepy man boy/sweater vest pervert) sang the most, then the New Directions as a group sang the second most, and Rachel sang the third most.
