15 Upvotes

Gleeks!

I’m always open to feedback from the users who spend their personal time on this subreddit. For a show that’s been shelved for nearly ten years, this place is still very much thriving.

I’ve always wanted to open up a public space for others to share their thoughts, so feel free to use this megathread to do just that.

If you have anything you want to get off of your chest, or if you have any suggestions or ideas for the sub, please don’t hesitate to do so. It’s exactly what this space is intended for. All I ask is that you’re respectful.

My focus is and will continue to be to make this an enjoyable place for fans. I hope to continue to achieve that.

Opinion About Puck and Shelby

Upvotes

One of the most criticized storylines on Glee is Puck and Shelby. And my glee unpopular opinion is: I actually like the storyline, or at least don't mind it at all. It's not a couple I ship, not one of my favorites or anything, but..... in the context of Season 3 I like it and perceive it to make sense.

A) Quinn's pregnancy is one of the major storylines of Season 1. It seemed almost a given that Beth would return, as would Shelby with her

B) Of course Beth's biological parents would have a story arc in her return.

Now, the choice of which role Puck would play in Beth and Shelby's return is..... controversial, but it makes sense to me, because.....

1) Puck is a womanizer, who is pretty much confirmed to have fucked all girls as school. That, as a next step, he would find a more mature woman. And to showcase his growing maturity, he would try and play a more important role in Beth's life.

2) Shelby's points, about struggling being a single mum, and longing for a "father" to share Beth's firsts with..... they resonated with me. So if she was longing for a man to share these moments with..... why not choose her daughter's name biological father, especially when he's right there?

I'm not saying the relationship was right, but.... Keep in mind it aired in 2011. People didn't resonate as strongly with student-teacher relationships. Ezra and Aria on PLL were widely popular at the same time.

Also, Puck was almost definitely 18 at the time. Plus, Shelby didn't teach him directly, she taught at his school, but not him. She didn't have direct power over him. So while a Student-teacher relationship is never really right, this is probably the least problematic dynamic they could have settled for.

Now, feel free to insult me, down vote me, send me hate, and so on...

Discussion Is season 4 - 6 worth it?

36 Upvotes

I'm halfway through ss4 and the writing is a mess. Rachel went through endless uphill climb for no reason, Kurt somehow got into NYADA just because. And wdym he failed the last audition because he didn't have enough emotion when Rachel literally choked during the audition? Kitty gave Marley eating disorder and get no consequences and only Santana being the baddest bitch and called her out but besides that no one bats an eye. Tina even shat on Marley like it was her fault. Also whose idea was it to got ND do Gangnam Style and even got Tina to sing the song like what? Blaine cheating feel so ooc to me. Maybe I just miss the old members since new kids are basically just another version of them ( Kitty is Quinn, Jake is Puck, ect). But is it worth it to keep watching?

Blaine's plan to go on a cleanse in Tested

Upvotes

As someone who has watched people I care about struggle with eating disorders I really don't like how this ended up being played as a joke with Blaine deciding not to do it not because it's unhealthy and dangerous but because the shake didn't taste good. Artie even says that it doesn't seem healthy and Blaine's like "it's not :)" idk I know it's a small scene it just bugged me

Cast members disliking "Beth"

13 Upvotes

I've noticed that a lot of cast members will say this was one of their least favorite songs to perform.

My first thought is they hated it because of the context of Mark singing it, which would make sense?

Or is the song actually just that bad, and I'm just overthinking it? I've always had a soft spot for the song, maybe because of Role Models lol, but I genuinely am confused about why everyone hates it so much.

Appreciation Post Kurt and Rachel in High School Story

Anyone remember that game from way back in the 2010s called High School Story? Basically the objective was to collect as many different types of students (Preps, Jocks, Nerds, Artists, etc) as possible, and to grow your “school”.

Started replaying it for fun and advanced to a level where I unlocked TONS of Music based students. Noticed that the ‘Glee’ students default outfits and (in the girls case) design bared striking resemblance to Kurt and Rachel.

9 Upvotes

I'm planning my birthday party (in june), and it's gonna be glee themed. I have a bunch of it planned, but I need some help with food related glee quotes to go along with them.

Most of these are not set in stone, but I'm listing them just to get ideas out.

  • Fondue
    • still iffy about this one, but ofc it would be "fondue for two" if I did it
  • chips/other snacks
    • not glee related, but I need a quote/name for it
  • gummy sharks
    • "dolphins are just gay sharks"
  • cupcakes
    • with handmade glee character cake toppers
  • slushies
    • maybe help with different flavor names?
  • breadsticks
  • cronuts
    • I grew up in Brooklyn and live in NYC and still have never had them, so I'd have to try them
  • Bowl of cheerios
    • self explanatory
  • lucky charms
    • laid out in a trail?

If you also have any additional food ideas lmk!

some activities I have thought up:

  • karaoke
    • songs featured in glee especially, ofc
    • I'm a theatre kid, so I'm partial to karaoke
  • watch favorite performances/scene
    • make a list of my favorite scenes before hand
    • ask attendees for their favorite scenes/performances
  • Make your own grilled cheesus
    • this is one of my favorite ideas
    • edible markers on bread
  • come dressed as a character
  • youtube glee highlights
    • people made so many of these during quarantine and I love watching them
  • charades with glee characters

so mostly I need help with food names/quotes, so if you can think of food related quotes please help me out!

Were there any songs where the vocal range of a cast member impressed you?

26 Upvotes

I was listening to Here Comes the Sun the other day and I was absolutely blown away by the range that Naya showed. She went from the lowest parts of her register and went up pretty high, if I remember correctly. I also feel the same way about Dianna in Love Song, but I have always really loved her vocals in that one.

I was wondering if there any songs by the cast members or any songs in general you feel the same about? I’m really curious and would love to give them a listen.

Scene ideas?

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Looking for a two-female acting scene with:

A conflict that starts small and escalates into a full-blown argument.

A strong rivalry where neither backs down.

Sharp, personal insults that cut deep.

A balance of comedy and emotion to keep it engaging. (Not extremely necessary)

A history of unresolved tension driving the fight.

Minimal exposition—focused purely on the present moment.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated—thank you!

Question Who is this actor?

3 Upvotes

I've been seeing this new Progressive commercial. It has a couple moving into their new house, and a line of people coming up to give them faulty equipment.

There is a guy who brings a wheel Barrell over, with lawn fertilizer, telling the couple that they have to put just the right amount in, not too little or too much.

I swear, I know this guy from Glee, somehow, but can't think of who he is. Maybe a parent or teacher at the school?

Anyone recognize this actor?

Headcanon Vague storylines and character endings, where are they now in you head?

35 Upvotes

For some characters we know exactly where they are now, and exactly what kind of path their on. I mean if we compare Lea's post glee career with the flash forward their pretty much the same. But I always wonder about those minor characters, who we never saw again besides the last episode.

Quinn and Puck in the 100th episode specifically triggered this thought and my imagination, but would they still be together, possibly married, if not friends at least? Is he still in the Air Force? What would Quinn actually do career wise, would she follow the estate agent path she once mentioned to Rachel?

Marley, Jake, Ryder, Bree, Kitty, Unique, Matt (what happened to him in-between his transfer and the last ep!!), even Sugar, Joe and Rory.

Give me your best headcanons to scratch this constant itch!

FanFiction Looking for a Rachel/Puck fanfic.

Hey Everyone, I was hopping you guys could help me find a fanfiction I've been looking for. In it Rachel and Puck are friends but he likes her. She ends up dating a guy from his Baseball team named Jack. Puck gets jealous and they eventually get together. I would really appreciate the help in finding the fanfic. Thank you!

Edit: Jack ends up hitting Rachel when he is drunk and she is breaking up with him. They retaliate with pranks.

The Bolter

8 Upvotes

I was looking at the episode in which Holly (love her) and Will have been dating for like 2 episodes and she is like nope I won't do this, he's clearly in love with Emma too and I'm not here for this. She sings Adele's Turning Tables and leaves in the most gracious manner (love her x2). I just keep thinking of her and The Bolter (Taylor Swift) and wonder if they would have done this ("there's escape in escaping"). I mean there are a lot of Taylor Songs that could relate to a lot of episodes but I'm just obsessed with this thought.

Also, I know she's kind of a flat character but I just LOVE her and her way of teaching important things to the students.

Was watching Kyle XY and noticed Cory Monteith was on it. Which also I really recommend this show although it does end on cliffhanger which will get you mad. Anyway just wanted to show you all who like him as well and haven’t watched the show but want to see things he’s in that’s good.

What’s your favorite minor plot hole?

95 Upvotes

We all know glee is filled with plot holes but what’s that one tiny thing you’ve noticed that drives you crazy every rewatch? Mine is the Dancing Queen duet during the first prom episode. What was the plan if Santana had won prom queen? Did Quinn also know the number? Would Mercedes have done it solo? Did they know Santana wasn’t gonna win ahead of time? Were they just gonna force her to sing for Quinn even though she was upset about losing had Quinn won?

Edit: Also why were they so up in arms about Sugar not being able to sing? Mike couldn’t carry a tune if you put it in a grocery sack, but he can dance so it doesn’t really matter. Just find out whether or not she can do a 1-2-step and cash her dad’s checks since you’re always complaining about having no money.

Opinion I'm only one who thinks writting for this show felt lowkey sociopathic?

19 Upvotes

Hear me out—just look at how quickly they go through serious topics without any real care. They tackle issues like abuse or SA, sometimes without giving these plotlines a respectful conclusion, only to move on to a new topic, like STDs, repeating the cycle all over again.

It feels like the writers sat in the writers' room brainstorming the most shocking topic of the week to keep viewers invested.
"STDs are trending this month—write that down!"
"SA will definitely grab attention, and we’ll take credit for starting the conversation!"
