Been here since the watch party with danny and you from season 1, and i have loved it the whole way. I cannot wait to rewatch this with you in the future, just an idea drag danny along for the ride on the next rewatch he’ll probably never do it but try please 😂😂 i think it could add something for us and you to see his first time reaction along with you rewatching

Hi Audrey! It's interesting. I first found you after you reacted to Driver's License back in 2021, but went to your Patreon to watch the glee episodes when I didn't want to have to match up the time stamps. I was a hs freshman when this show aired and in choir, and I related so hard to kids just trying to figure out where they belong in the world. I think it's hard as a kid and even in your 20s to figure out your place and purpose. Watching Glee was def cheesy, but it helped so many kids like me accept ourselves.
So some fun facts about this episode. Lea isn't wearing all of that make-up to look younger. If you listen to the commentary on the first episode with Ryan and some of the cast, Lea applied a lot of powder to her face during the filming of the pilot. Likely because she was accustomed to being on stage where you it's necessary.
Next, we never actually heard Artie's song in the pilot. This is the first time we see him do his audition piece, so it felt really special for the fans at the time to get that little snippet.
Lastly, you'll see in the rewatch that Rachel was actually the first and last person to get slushied. The early slushies were apparently brutal and hurt, and they eventually changed whatever it is they used to soften the blow a little. But yeah, Lea was the first and last person on the show to get one thrown at her.

Audrey and everyone who loves Glee so much, thank you so much for loving it as much as I do. There are a couple of episodes that I never thought I could watch again, and I watched them crying with you. Glee is such a powerful show. Audrey, thank you for opening up to us and being a beautiful soul. I have so much love for you.

Yea I was FREAKING OUT INSIDE when I realised I watched it out of order. Felt like a failure on my part, but then I remembered that you can't change the past. You can only change how you react to it. SO I marked on and it actually worked out ok. Whew!

Yes! This is why it's important to keep the arts in schools. We ALL need a place to feel accepted and apriciated. I'm stoked this group could bring back those good feelings with GLEE.

It makes me laugh how Chris Colfer has grown so much he looks so different from season 1 ! But I am glad we got this flashback though. That's a great ending episode, better than the 13th in my opinion :) I am glad we will rewatch glee with you again :)

I can't believe you're officially done with Glee... I'm SO SAD!!!! I'm excited for The Glee Project, but that doesn't scratch my Glee itch enough hahaha. I for sure will be there for you re-doing the show! And hopefully, you're able to react to more BTS Glee stuff and Glee content that is on your amazing editor, David's channel! And still hoping for you to react to that tour they did at the end of season 1, to the performances that got cut on the movie and to the Lea Michele and Darren Criss carpool karaoke lol :)

One other example was how Kurt sang in the Most Wonderful Day of the Year alongside Sam’s lines in the studio version. The episode version had Quinn replace Kurt due to him being at Dalton which made people think that wasn’t the original plan.

I’m 43 years old and graduated high school in 1999, so I’m an older Gleek. I wouldn’t say I was necessarily bullied in school, but I was always the shy kid. If you want proof, I can show you my senior yearbook. Who won the superlative for shyest female…this girl! I was in marching band for 3 years in high school, but kind of hated it. I mean, we had fun and I had several friends in band, but it really wasn’t for me. I always loved to sing and decided to join chorus my senior year. I loved it and wished I had been in it all 4 years. If I had, it may have given me more confidence to sing solo in front of others. Sadly, that shyness has never really went away, but that’s me and I’ve accepted it. That’s part of why I love this show so much! I get to see this mixture of people coming together and accepting each other and learning to accept themselves. It reminds me of my choir room at school and the amazing time I had for the short time I was there.
Glee is my happy show, even if it makes me cry half of the time. ❤️

2024-01-05 06:14:10 +0000 UTC
IDK how serious they were about that because in Kevin and Jenna’s old podcast when they had Chord on, they mentioned that they assumed that’s why he was hired but when they brought it up to him on set, he had no idea what they were talking about. But maybe he wasn’t told last minute because they obviously didn’t go through with it. But I can’t complain as I prefer Klaine over Kurt/Sam anyway.

So I first found your YT channel by looking up vocal coach glee reactions and I noticed that you had done more than one. Which for one channel was rare. So I subscribed with the small chance that you would do more, which lead me to this patreon when the watch parties moved here permanently. Thanks to you I now know what auto tune sounds like, which is something I’ve always wondered. I look forward to them every week and I don’t plan on going anywhere any time soon. Plus I’ve never seen the GP, so watching it for the 1st time this way sounds very fun.
As for the episode, I really love it!! The og pilot is great but it does mainly focus on finchel and the adults. So getting a part 2 so to speak that touches more on the students is really cool. We get to learn something new about them, how friendships started, etc. Even (kind of) explaining why Mercedes was in the background more. She clearly took the “learning to share the spotlight is a stars responsibility” lesson to heart. Plus I love that they brought back Kurt and Mercedes friendship!! At least the writers didn’t forget about them completely. With the exception of Chris’s growth spurt and digital cameras, it really feels like 2009. Another fun idea is to do mini reactions to glee deleted scenes on YouTube! There are a ton! Also don’t be afraid to go all Simon Cal. I love vocal breakdowns! Can’t wait for next week!

They should’ve just kept him and Quinn together lol. He literally dated all of the original ND girls and made out with Tina. I couldn’t get behind him and Mercedes because again cheating was the only conflict they knew so just like what Finn did to him, he did to Shane. Granted Shane wasn’t a friend per se to Sam but still. I mentioned last week, I firmly believe in my head that Quinn and Sam are endgame because they were together in the final number alongside Tina and Artie.
For the second watch party of Glee I think I’m just going to comment on all of the missed opportunities and things I wished happened lol. A lot will have to do with Quinn..

2024-01-05 05:07:44 +0000 UTC
The realisation that you fucked up the order was weirdly heartbreaking even though I knew it would be okay. This does work as the finale too. Literally any other show it would have been a disaster!
Thank you Audrey for this wonderful journey and may it continue! I first came across some of your Glee videos on YouTube and had no idea what Patreon was when you mentioned it. I didn't join until late in S3 and binge watched all the episodes with you.
It's so trippy watching this episode and knowing they filmed it for S6 (except for Don't Stop Believin') but it's supposed to be in the same time as the pilot. They all look so grown up in spite of them trying to make them younger with the hair, clothes and make-up. I'm really glad they decided to keep Don't Stop Believin' in it. I just start crying whenever I see Cory (and Naya).
When the show first aired I just started what is the equivalent of American high school in Iceland. I had one friend from elementary school, my home life was abusive and chaotic and I was getting more and more depressed. I wasn't bullied (except by myself), I just didn't have any friends and I isolated myself a lot. Unfortunately I could relate to Kurt's storyline in this episode. Worse, I've tried it three times. I was a good student but in 2012 my mental health deteriorated drastically and I dropped out. I just couldn't focus. I had been self-harming but didn't realise it until I started cutting that that was what I was doing. My first suicide attempt was in 2013. I was so attached to Glee and these characters, it brought me so much comfort. So when Cory died in July 2013 I was absolutely devastated which was not good for my mental health. I even felt stupid for feeling that way about an actor I didn't know. Thankfully, I had gotten my friend into Glee at that point so we used to watch it and talk about it all the time. We even created our own version with a bunch of crazy storylines and new characters (one where Karofsky and Principal Figgins were a thing I kid you not - Thank God we weren't writers on the show). It was so much fun. In spite of everything I have so many wonderful memories relating to the show. And getting to watch it again while watching someone else watch it for the first time is wild. I look forward to watching it with you for the second time (and the Glee Project).
Fun fact: This episode was originally supposed to air after the wedding episode, however the producers felt it would work better with the finale. Because of this a portion of the episode was rewritten. For instance, Blaine was not in the original script. It may be a continuity problem that he was there but I don't care, I loved it!
Love you ❤

Don't stop believing scene from the pilot always makes me emotional.
So fun to have rewatched it all again as last time I watched all eps was when it aired.
Jackie Warner

I kind of like the original release order, because this episode gives little hints as to what's going to happen in the next episode. It also hints that older characters are going to show up at the end, like the character Matt and Teri.

Seriously, I loved Quinn and Sam in season two before she cheated. They were cute and a bit wholesome. I hate that the writers never really gave Sam any consistent good love interest. In season two he's with Quinn and then she cheats on him, he then dates Santana not knowing she's a lesbian, but then she abruptly dumps him to "date" Krioffski. Then he has a summer fling with Mercedes, making Sam obsessed with being in a relationship with her, because she was the one good relationship he had that year. But to get together he gets her to cheat on her boyfriend, then for the rest of season three they are on and off on if they're dating. Then season four he has Brittany which was cute and they worked, but it wasn't truly long term. Then season five he had that weird nurse character. Then once in New York he dates Mercedes again for like 6 episodes. Then in season six, he claims he's still in love with Mercedes, but then he has a no real strings attached relationship with Rachel. No wonder at the end Sam ends up with no one, because the writers I feel never really gave his character a chance at any good relationship.

I'm stealing your line from when you opened your package. Oh you bitch!
I wasn't expecting to cry watching your ending thoughts so much.
Thank you for seeing me past the anger and the defensiveness. Thank you for being so open and understanding. Thank you for always making sure the communities you have built are a safe place for everyone no matter who they are.
Your communities have been such a ray of light in my life even during some very dark times. I wish I had these spaces when I was in high school 11 years ago before dropping out.
It's been a great ride for this first wave of Glee and I'm so grateful to be a mod for you in the Discord and for the livestreams but I'm even more grateful to be your friend 💜
Here's to hopefully many more years of this Patreon community creating glee for all.

I think I may have to binge glee now since I haven’t rewatched it other than this watch party since it started, which means I haven’t rewatched in like, binge mode, for over 2 years, so now I need to go and refresh my memory on the first 2 seasons 🤣

It’s gone midnight, and I am bawling.
Every time I watch this episode, when we get to the old footage of Don’t stop believing with Cory, I just start sobbing and I can’t stop.
I have spent the vast majority of my life being picked on or bullied in some way. Due to being potentially (as in very very likely, like suggested by professionals) autistic, I have a very hard time interacting with other people and that has made me feel so isolated throughout my life. The first time I watched glee (and the second, third, etc.) I watched it alone, and cried because it was the first time I felt connected to characters as they were all misfits. I became very very attached to glee so when I stumbled upon your YouTube channel and you were reacting to and breaking down glee songs I watched your videos over and over again. When you started the watch parties I watched along and it felt like I had a friend. When the watch parties moved fully over here I decided to take the leap, despite having no income, to make myself happy, by spending what money I did have on a membership for your Patreon. And I’m so glad I did. I immediately felt so safe and so welcome, you’re like the big sister/mother I always wanted as a small child feeling completely alone in a world that felt so scary to me. As someone with a terrible relationship with my parents, they know nothing about me. I can’t tell them I’m bi, or that I struggle with things. But here, I can just be, without fear of judgement, and I love that so much. So thank you for being you, Audrey.
P.s. I’m quite glad you got the episodes in the wrong order as episode thirteen is kind of the continuation of ep eleven anyway, and this one felt so much more special as a finale.
I can’t wait to restart glee with you after the glee project (which I’m also kind of excited about as I’ve never watched it) .

2024-01-05 00:15:23 +0000 UTC
It’s so wild that Glee is finally done! I remember watching when you were putting them on YouTube and I was SO excited to see it! I have loved Glee since I was 12 (I’m 26 right now) and even though there is some stuff there that either didn’t age well or I’ve changed my opinions on, I will never not love Glee
It helped me make friends with people outside of my school, helped me navigate my sexuality because I started realizing I wasn’t straight around the time I started watching the show, it was something that me and my mom and sometimes my brothers watched, and it made me realize that it’s totally okay for me to love something openly and loudly even if other people thought it was lame
Cory was the first celebrity death I ever cried over and I remember finding out and it just changed something in me
I still tell people “They sang this on Glee” whenever a song comes up that was on Glee
And I have loved watching you experience it for the first time because even if it’s cheesy and cringey and a little offensive sometimes, it changed people’s lives and I’m glad it still is
Thank you for reacting to this show and creating the community you’ve created because you’re right, there do need to be more safe places for people and you (and Danny and David and everyone else you work with) have done an amazing job

nooo, your reaction when you realized you watched out of order🥺 its all good, i feel like it was such an audrey thing to do!😄 also now its like a cycle, this episode plays before/during the pilot episode, and this being your last episode and then rewatching... like a cycle☺️
i totally understand you when you talked about your highschool years. i got bullied, too, real bad. I didn't had any friends, the ones i used to have went away from me when the rumour spread i was gay. (which, at this time i didnt even knew myself and i never "acted gay")
but funny enough, glee helped me A LOT during my coming out. I leaned a lot on Santanas character, as my coming out was around season 3 when Santana had hers. I got so much confidence seeing her get accepted by almost all her friends that I was able to come out too, I even used Santanas sentence to come out to my mum ("I like boys the way I'm supposed to feel about girls"). So, no matter how many people shit on this show, I will ALWAYS defend how great it is - flaws and all.
And especially now cause I got to meet you and Danny and a lot of gleeks on this Patreon. It honestly feel like a lil family here and I feel so safe here talking about stuff, private or whatever

Oh no! You realizing you watched out of order!! 😭
It's all good. It happens girl.
I've been on this journey with you since you and Danny were sitting on your couch eating popcorn and we all had had to sync up our own copy of the show with your watch party. We have come a long way baby!!!
Looking forward to Glee Project and the rewatch and all the other fun things you have planned. So glad I found you on YouTube!

Your highschool (and for me even earlier too) and mine were very similar. I got bullied a ton and rarely had friends. It'd get so bad I ended up having to get rides to school because people wouldn't let me sit next to them on rhe bus and I'd get things (including rocks) thrown at me. I think it's in part why I got so attached to Glee, because I related to them a lot. They were kids like me who didn't quite fit in or weren't able to be themselves. One thing I love about the Glee fandom is just how broad of a fanbase it includes. It opens you up to interacting with and meeting so many different people. Yet most of us seem to have some things in common. Regardless of where we grew up, how we were raised, gender, nationality, age, sexual orientation. Probably a lot of us at least at one point in our lives felt like outsiders. Like we didn't really belong or something was wrong with us. Yet, in this group I've seen/experienced way less bullying and being mean in general than I think I have pretty much anywhere else when it comes to social media. I've left most platforms because it got so toxic and was doing things to my mental health. Even when I wasn't a part of it. Just reading people be openly racist, homophobic, slut shaming, etc. We have a very nice little community here which I hope continues to grow. Even now that we have sort of closed on a chapter of it.
Jennifer Lawrence

That whole situation was just handled so poorly. Felt like rehashing a previous storyline pretty much entirely all over again. Just with a different combination

I joined this Patreon right around when you had reacted to Born This Way from Season 2, or at least that was the first episode I watched you react to. And actually, I hadn't even joined to watch Glee. I joined to watch you react to Zoey because I was starved of content from that show and I wanted to see you react to it, but Glee's been pretty important to me since I started watching it right before season 3 had aired on television. Glee literally saved my life, because as someone who's transgender, I absolutely hated myself back then. I grew up in not the most accepting house and the only time LGBTQ+ people of any kind were brought up, it was in a derogatory way. And then I watched Glee, and I saw Kurt grow to be so proud of himself and I wanted that. Hes the reason I don't hate myself anymore. I honestly think I wouldn't be here right now if it wasn't for this show.
And when I realized you posted Glee episodes on here as well...well I fell down a rabbit hole. I hadn't watched the show in so long and I had never even finished it. And when I did rewatch it I normally stopped after like five episodes of season 5, so I didn't remember most of anything past that.
I've stuck around for so long because of Glee, but I promise I won't be going anywhere. I don't really comment on here, but I like this community. I like knowing that even if I don't interact with people that much, that I'm still wanted here. I always look forward to the new episodes of shows youre reacting to (plus you're watching HSMTMTS, which is arguably a show I love more than Glee, and also OUAT, another personal favorite of mine, so I'm sticking around for those), and I look forward to seeing you rewatch all of Glee all over again!

Yep that’s what happened. That’s why Darren was brought in. Don’t get me started on that though lol. All these years later and I’m still salty about the fact that they literally changed the story to put Sam with Quinn instead then after just a couple episodes they broke them up in a story that painted Quinn, Finn, and Rachel in a bad light. Finn literally doing to Sam what Puck did to him by going after Quinn and getting her to cheat on Sam. The only explanation given was that Ryan Murphy “got bored” with Quinn and Sam as if it wasn’t them that wrote them that way and made Quinn a cheater again.
Benjamin Smith
2024-01-04 17:43:41 +0000 UTC
honestly of all shows you could've swapped the last 2 episodes, this was the most fortunate. I also think it was like a little preview of you rewatching which was fun to see and got me more excited for the rewatch!

2024-01-04 17:09:29 +0000 UTC
I think I remember reading that chord was brought in to be kurt's love interest, but they loved his chemistry with dianna so decided to go that direction instead
Nicole M

The fact that Rachel sang Popular when she was even less popular than Kurt was funny. Isn't Kurt supposed to be Guylinda? Anyway, gosh, I thought it was hilarious you watched this out of order, and it thankfully worked in your favour. But watching you come to the realisation was heart-breaking. As someone with mild OCD, I felt for you.
I just wish that we got to see other members too (like, what would have been going on with Puck?), but it was a lot fun.
People being so vicious online is just, so pathetic especially when it's in no way warranted. I am so sorry those trolls gave you shit!
What a journey! I have been watching your reactions since last year April (on and off), and I thought we'd never come here but here we are. I am very excited to watch Glee Project with you. (I hope I am making sense for I'm an English learner.)

I really love the foreshadow they did in this episode especially that little bit with Mercedes talking about the one black guy being extremely boring and him popping up behind her saying hi. If you don’t remember, that was Matt from season 1 who joined Glee Club with Puck and Mike. Literally became a rubbing joke that he never had any speaking lines until the last few episodes of season 1. He is also the only member to never have a solo of any kind. Since he was just on the one season, I remember reading a rumor he showed up for season 2 and was essentially told he was fired and Chord Overstreet (Sam) was brought in to replace him.
As crazy and awful as she was, I loved seeing Terri again after all those years. Jessalyn really nailed it as Terri and when everything with the fake pregnancy came to a head in the kitchen scene, she and Matthew as Will made that scene so intense. I know what she did was wrong and she did it to herself but I still blame part of it on her sister for not letting Terri tell Will the truth right away.

What a journey this has been. When you first started the weekly Glee watch parties, I thought it was going to take forever to get to this point but now here we are! Time certainly flew by and I loved every reaction. I’m looking forward to the GP episodes as I haven’t seen the full episodes since they originally released. It was very difficult at the time for me to find good quality episodes online. I’m very interested to hear your thoughts on some of my favorite contestants. There’s two I remember liking a lot.

Literally sobbing! Here are my last thoughts..
First of all, I am so happy to have been a part of this Journey with you Audrey and from the very beginning! You have became a part of my week that I look forward to. I know that some people might choose to leave now that Glee ended but I can’t do that. I could never say goodbye to Audrey! I know we have to wait a couple of months to start rewatching it again but I’ll give the glee project a chance and I’m sticking around for everything! Thank you for being kind, loving genuine and for making us feel safe and accepted! Much love to you and Danny ♥️
This show will always have a place in my heart cause it really showed me that there’s a place for me in this world and that I could be accepted and loved just the way I am. I don’t care about how problematic it was and about all the behind the scenes drama. They still managed to creat something special that resonated with millions around the world. Naya is someone that will forever have a special place in my heart. I resonated with her coming out journey the most and I can’t say that I’m over her passing. I keep rewatching glee and to me she never left 🤍 Each and every one of those characters added to the show and made it what it is and I love them all regardless of the drama!

rewatching glee is even better than watching for the first time because you can really understand the characters more and the show and it’s style and wackiness

Audrey, I can truly say I’ve enjoyed being on this journey with you, and I love your connection to this show and the characters. We are so glad we can claim you as a Gleek! Thank you for your honesty and openness in all your reactions.
Now, I can truly say I felt every piece of what you said because I was also that girl in High School. I was too tall (5’11) and tried to make myself seem smaller by not talking to anyone. I had bad acne, hadn’t mastered the art of putting on makeup, and was terribly shy. One thing I loved was the theater, and my drama class was a huge escape for me! It was a melting pot of theater kids, football players, cheerleaders and choir kids, but we all shared common ground in our drama room, and that is why Glee captured me. Even though I had graduated in 2005 and the show aired in 2009, it was close enough that high school still didn’t feel that far away. And Glee reminded me of my drama class/club. I grew to love socializing because of acting and I’m glad Glee exists because I know it gave kids the feeling of being seen. I wish it had existed when I was in high school, but I’m glad it exists at all.

I remember the first time you got recommended to me on YouTube for glee reactions and I just kept getting them in my recommended and I loved glee so I watched them. I used to get frustrated with how often you plugged your Patreon but then one video you just said the simple "skip coffee for a day and come hang out with us" and I cracked. I had watched glee twice before joining but there was something so fun about the idea of watching someone else react to it. I will never regret spending those 5 dollars that day. I joined late unfortunately at the end of season 3 but i'm am very grateful to be here at the end of it all. I will always love glee and i'm so beyond excited to watch this with you all again. i'm excited to watch my two favorite seasons (season 1 and 2) with you. Thank you so much Audrey for making this an accepting and great community. you are such a kind and genuine person. I've dealt with depression for the past 4 years and its been really tough on me but I've enjoyed having this place to come to every week and just smile and watch an episode of one of my favorite shows. I've already started rewatching glee for my 4th time and am on season 2, which I hope to complete in the time we watch glee project. My fifth watch through will be with all of you again :). The second watch through will be a great one Audrey, you will realize things you haven't from your first watch through and its such a nice experience. Anyway on to glee project for now though, im excited cause I've actually never seen glee project too!

Oh man, this show! I've never thought to watch this episode last, but I really liked it this time around, it's a lovely little bookend, ending with Don't Stop Believing again (I do love I Lived from the finale though), and it kind of makes me want to go straight into episode 1.02 again and just pick it up like an ongoing cycle.
This show has had such a special place in my heart, for 12 years now, it was my entire adolescence, and it always made me feel seen and special even though I wasn't brave enough to do what these guys did. It was my comfort show, it still is, and your videos have become my comfort series and the highlight of my week. It's been amazing seeing your reactions to these, the way you connect to them and the way you analysed their singing just felt like a perfect fit for my brain. This show is my safe space, and I'm so glad I found your channel and your reflections and lessons, and I'm so ready to see what else you have for us. Thank you for everything you've done for your community, I'm so grateful to be a part of it.

I've loved going through this journey with you and everyone in this patreon. Really excited for a rewatch or whatever it is to come. Thank you Audrey for this community. ❤️

This was such an emotional rollercoaster and really what would Glee be if it wasn’t an emotional rollercoaster so this was the perfect way to end the series. Though, with Glee, it’s never truly over since we all carry every single character in our hearts every day and listen to all 700+ songs on repeat so much that the Glee Cast is still one of out top artists every year. Thank you so much Audrey for creating a safe place for all of us to come together and just be. I’m so excited for more Glee as always but also everything else that is in store for the future.

So many emotions! Your realization of the episode order in beginning was so heartfelt but it truly worked out in a great way. So glad they did a flash back episode and that show really took care of Finn as a character. Excited to see what’s coming!

Watching the realization that you watched out of order was heartbreaking. But knowing that it all turned out ok since it was a flashback made me chuckle a little. But this was such a beautiful way to end the series. Getting to see Finn again makes me emotional everytime. This has been such an amazing journey. I’ve been here for 2 years and this community you have built has just brought so much joy. It’s crazy to see how you’ve grown. Thank you for so much laughter and tears. Excited for this next chapter. ❤️
