These episodes are OUT OF ORDER! Last night I watched the two episodes back to back but didn't realize I had watched episode 13 BEFORE episode 12. I was in shock and didn't know what to do once I figured it out! BUT after watching episode 12 (as my last episode) I believe that it was MEANT TO BE.
So here's episode 13 in the order that I watched them.

I think I would never not cry, because their faces ... they themselves are crying not the character. It so noticeable that they are soo sad, and are not acting â€ïžâ€ïž I'm so attached to this series I would never let go of them and I always miss Finn đ (Cory)

Audrey, thank you for sharing your Glee journey with us all! I found your channel when we were in the depths of lockdown and my Dad had died, and finding Glee again (after not feeling able to watch it since it ended in 2015) was so needed and was a real tonic during a difficult time. I've loved getting to see it through your eyes as you discover it for the first time, and sharing my thoughts with others on here. It's amazing too to see how your community has grown and how you've reached new people. I'm going to take a break from it now, and see what else I can discover, but I might drop back in from time to time when I need a Glee fix again. Best of luck with everything! Romy x

I canât help but wonder what they wouldâve done if Cory was alive. He wouldâve had Samâs job but what about Sam? Finn wouldâve been teaching and Rachel wouldâve come home and said âIâm home.â And they wouldâve lived happily ever after⊠How would the last show have ended?
I loved this episode and the songs. It makes me feel happy and wistful.

Yes, I'm so glad she was booked and busy! It just would've been cool if we had 100% of the New Directions there, but that's a LOT of schedules to align so it's awesome to have had as many as they did at that reunion.

Actually wanted to point out if the year is 2024 that would make Kurt 30 and Blaine 29 since Kurt graduated in 2012 and Blaine in 2013

Naya was a little pregnant with her son, you can see an itty bitty baby bump when she came out in I Lived. I use that for my head cannon that Brit and Santana are expecting too đ„č

lol the tony nominations having Cabaret for 2024 & the show is actually coming back to broadway for this season.
Jackie Warner
2024-01-01 13:00:15 +0000 UTC
I gave in and watched. I always found it weird bc Rachel is pregnant but like a lot of the time people who are nominated for Tony's are in the show for like a year & she probably isn't doing it at that time bc of how far along maybe unless it doesn't matter about the character but I guess the Tony's rules are who ever performs opening night is up for the award of lead/supporting etc but like how long was she in the show? Was the show only a limited run? I know it's a tv show but that's what I always think about. Also being a surrogate takes times& planning I don't think she or Jesse would of liked it happening around the shows opening
Jackie Warner
2024-01-01 12:55:39 +0000 UTC
I did a pilot and then 2009 watch then continued on with season 1. It takes a lot of suspending of reality to do it that way, considering how much the cast aged (and grew *coughChriscough*), but it does work.

Kurt is actually 2 years older than Blaine. Blaine is only 25 atp since he graduated the same year I did.

Hey, the Simpsons even predicted Trump being president back in 2000. Like that's actually insane when you think about it.
Mia
2023-12-30 23:55:05 +0000 UTC
So if you're trying to figure out the timeline for the last episode, they graduated in 2012. That means the OGs are roughly around 25/26. I believe Kurt is actually a year older, so he's like 27 to Blaine's 25, and Rachel is probs still 25 because she has a December birthday.
This Time and I Lived always make me so sad. Glee started when I began high school and finished halfway through college for me, so it really felt like I grew up with these characters. I think my biggest qualm with the series is just about the couples. I don't find it that realistic that so many of them were together. It would be one thing if they'd stayed in Lima, but most of them went out into the world. You're telling me there aren't other people out there better suited them than their high school sweethearts?
The OGs were actually bawling when Matthew sang that song to them. Then I know a bunch of them took stuff from the set. Lea took Finn's jersey. I think she might've taken some of the stuffing/padding from the choir room. They also had like a goodbye carnival.
Mia
2023-12-30 23:54:24 +0000 UTC
To me the point of the finale that takes me out is the fact that we're 3+ years past when the future parts of the finale were shown (2020) and with what happend in 2020 you know it would have been filmed very differently if it actually happened in 2020 unlike when it was aired

I lived is not only one of my favorite season 6 songs done not just because its the finale episode song but because all members are present!

2023-12-30 15:16:17 +0000 UTC
See this is why I love watching reactions of my favorite shows because years later I find out new facts about the actors or characters that I didn't know previously and it makes the show all the more better!

Also... One scary thing about how this episode has aged. When Sue became the Vice President, I remember saying to myself, there is no way that a corrupted compulsive liar with no real political experience could ever become the (vice) president of the US. Then the 2016 election happened. -_-

"Teach Your Children" - I still bawl to this song every time I watch it, knowing this was the cast's final scene that they shot. I know Will isn't saying goodbye to anything, but I do think his emotions rang true just because his original group of students were in that choir room, being able to witness the start of the McKinley High School for the Performing Arts - something I don't think any of them even dreamed of back then.
"This Time" - I will say, THIS is the song that continued to carry me even years after Glee ended. Flash forward to 2018, I was graduating from college, and for my senior vocal recital I chose "This Time" as my final performance, as a thank you to all of my friends, teachers, mentors, and everyone who was a part of my life in that chapter.
"I Lived" - I LOVE the way this number was staged. Starting it off with the core Season 1/2 regulars who essentially birthed the New Directions. Then comes the Season 6 kids (and Sugar) - the ones who were part of the first incarnation of McKinley as an arts school. The Mike/Matt (the dancer from Season 1) little dance reunion warmed my heart SO much. I missed their brotherhood from Season 1. Then comes that line of students who were originally brought in as bullies/antagonists - Santana, Puck, Brittany, Lauren, Jake, Kitty, even Dave! Then comes the Glee Project trio. And finally all the adults. I did miss Marley and Rory, but it was great that almost everyone was able to be a part of it. The final shot of Ms. Adler and Finn - bawling again. So beautiful.
As for the flash forwards, I believe Rachel would actually be about 25. During Season 6 they were actually juniors in college - making them about 20-21. Plus five years, about 25-26. As a 28-year-old, I definitely agree, I see Rachel as being SO young, but I did like the fact that the flash forward included at least one of the couples blossoming into parenthood.

Doesnât matter that itâs out of order Iâm just happy I got to watch glee all over again with you. You fell in love with this show just like I did and Iâm so sad the reactions will be over, I thought it was a good rap up for all characters even though Cory just should have been there but the journey is over but so glad you loved it!!!!

NOT READY. Iâm thinking about how that episode ends. My heart đ€
Erwin đ
2023-12-30 05:06:31 +0000 UTC
You're lucky E12 is a flashback episode, otherwise it would have been super confusing! I was so not ready for this. But here are my final thoughts on Glee.
I am one of the people who watched from the beginning and I grew so attached to these characters and the story over the 6 years it was on. I didn't watch the finale until a few months after it aired because I wasn't ready to say goodbye. It sounds cheesy as hell but this show, these characters, this cast and crew, the music and the Gleeks, will always have a special place in my heart. It taught me so many things like embracing our differences, standing up for what you believe in and going after your dreams. It introduced me to music I never would have known otherwise. It introduced me to some incredibly talented people. It brought so much joy in my life (or should I say helped me open up to joy) and continues to do so. It's been a blast watching this with you (even though I only started once you were well into S3 and binge-watched from the beginning) and I would gladly do it again.
For the most part I am happy about the way it ended. I wanted Sam & Mercedes and Tina & Mike to be endgame (I know it may not be realistic but this is a TV show AND Glee on top of that). I wish we got to see more of Sue's redemption and what made her finally change. I loved Rachel being Klaine's surrogate no matter how unrealistic it was (more than their age it is the fact that I don't think you're allowed to, or at least not adviced to, if you've never been pregnant before). I wish we got to see more of Rachel and Jesse as a couple. I wish there was more Santana and Brittany. A part of me wanted Don't Stop Believin' to be the final song but I get that it was a bit overused at this point. Some fans were pissed Rachel didn't mention Finn during her acceptance speech but I didn't mind, plus it honestly would have been a bit disrespectful to Jesse even though I'm sure he would've understood. It was just beautiful to see Finn's memory being kept alive.
Fun facts:
Characters you may not have noticed who came back for the final number are Mike, Matt, Karofsky, Lauren Zizes, Joe, Sugar, Jake and Ryder (why Terri was there I have no idea). Both Melissa Benoist, who played Marley, and Damian McGinty, who played Rory, were invited back but had scheduling conflicts; Melissa was filming the pilot for Supergirl while Damian had returned to Irish singing group Celtic Thunder.
As is common, a number of actors took pieces of the set home as souvenirs. Lea Michele tweeted a photo of her taking home Finn's framed #5 football jersey. Mark Salling took Finn's plaque. Jane Lynch took some of her tracksuits. Darren Criss took his Warblers jacket, among other things. Amber Riley took her sneakers from the pilot episode. Chord Overstreet took some trophies, photos and clothing. Dot-Marie Jones took a football championship ring.
Will crying during his song didn't really make sense in the show but, aside from being the series finale, I heard it was the last scene filmed. Notice how all living original New Directions members are there (Rachel, Mercedes, Kurt, Artie and Tina)?
In the original script for the episode it was revealed that Kurt and Blaine would be having a daughter. Also, the gum-wrapper ring in Kurt's locker is something Blaine made for him in a deleted scene in S3's Christmas episode.
The song Spencer suggests, "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy", was written by Paul Overstreet, Chord Overstreet's dad.
And the song Rachel sings, This Time, was written by Darren Criss and was nominated for an Emmy.

Yeah they could def have chosen a better song for Klaine's last duet but i think it was supposed to hint that they were having a kid!
Gigi
2023-12-29 08:54:09 +0000 UTC
Not sure if another comment mentions this but the performance from Will where he and the others cry was actually the last scene and performance ever shot for much of the cast.
Glen M BELLINGER
2023-12-29 07:31:18 +0000 UTC
It wasnât a gift just for Lea, but more for the show and everyone involved as a whole, but it was a gift in the way she brought it to life. And made the most sense for her sing it.
Selma Jabr
2023-12-29 06:50:28 +0000 UTC
In my own head canon for this episode: when Rachel wins the Tony award, Kurt and Blaine are excited for her, but theyâre also excited for the fact that their unborn child is on national television. đ
Jenn
2023-12-29 06:47:10 +0000 UTC
I really like this finale! Itâs not perfect because Brittana had NO part at all. It made no sense and there wasnât even any dialogue explaining their absence other than Blaine confirming they live in NY. Not to mention them being treated like lesser characters in the way I Lived was set up. And the episode should have been a whole hour. But on a happier note; This Time is my fav Rachel solo. Itâs totally underrated and a Darren Criss original song. I think itâs even Emmy nominated too. Basically every song is underrated except for Klaine. Good performance but the song itself isnât the best. Klaine is older than 24 because I believe Kurt was 21 when he got married. So 5 years later would make him 26 with Blaine about the same age. Plus I love the idea of them being dads. đ
Sue never liked will that way so I think her facial expression was her just showing how sorry she was.
Also Willâs solo seems like a goodbye when it isnât is because that was the last scene to be filmed. So all of the crying, hand holding, and Rachel saying thank you was more the cast than anything else. Fun fact: Klaines last kiss was supposed to be after Daydream, but Chris and Darren thought the locker was more appropriate and just added it in.
On YouTube, there is a 26 minute video about glees end. Cast interviews (tho excluding Chris for some reason), some general behind the scenes, and even the cast getting their role wrapped up, the moment they were officially no longer on the show. Itâs very emotional to watch. Definitely a good consideration for a mini watch party. Canât wait for next week!

Well, Sam couldâve had one with someone, and they could be friends with Daniel. Iâm just throwing it out there, that the child that is with Daniel and Sam looks to be about the same age as Daniel, and the kid that Emma is holding looks to be about 4-5 months.

About 3/4 years after i graduated school over half the people in my grade had kids so i see nothing wrong with Kurt and Blaine having one as 25 year olds, and I always loved how Rachel was the surrogate! it's a full circle moment! The song Will was singing was the last scene they shot so everyone was crying because they were about to call wrap.

Over the years i have gotten over the fact that they didnât catch us up with what Brittany and Santana are doing after five years and that they left them up in the air. The two of them have a plethora of talents and I like to think that they never stick with just one path but whatever they do they do together and fabulously.
Annie Willow
2023-12-29 02:00:03 +0000 UTC
You might be right. I looked up to see when she actually was pregnant, after I was corrected, since I knew she had a child. I saw it was 2020 and thought it was a bit ironic, but I didn't make the connection that it could have been why it was brought up.
Jennifer Lawrence
2023-12-29 01:57:28 +0000 UTC
I think the other comments are referring to her being pregnant in 2020 in real life which lines up with the timeline of the glee universe 2020. Dw I see how that could be misinterpreted
Liv Heskett

I think it's just a mistake as the recent episode of Once Upon a Time also had two links that were the same.
Jennifer Lawrence

This episode never fails to make me cry. Iâve watched glee many many times, and I always end up bawling.
-Rachelâs song always has me in pieces, and all the little references to Finn just hurt my heart.
-Mr Shues song makes me tear up a little, I canât lie, itâs really sweet.
-Sams whole storyline for this episode makes me sad because it was meant to be Finn.
-Daydream believer is a song we used to sing at my primary school and I loved it, itâs very nostalgic for me đ.
-I always end up ugly crying by the end of the last song đ.
-Iâm glad we got to see Quinn, Brittany, Santana, and some of the other older/og characters one last time but I agree, we needed more brittana.
-The ending where it says âFall 2020â hurts a lot when Santana comes out during the song now, knowing that Naya wasnât even here anymore in fall 2020 (ik it wasnât actually filmed then but itâs still hard to see).
Overall, this episode is very bittersweet, and although there were ways it couldâve been better, personally I think it was a good finale for the show.
I only joined Patreon at the start of season 3 when you stopped uploading them to YouTube, but I have watched every single one of the glee watch parties and itâs always felt like watching with a friend, more like we were on FaceTime than me just watching you. Iâve never really had a lot of friends so itâs been so lovely to get to kind of âshareâ one of my big interests with someone else and get to see you enjoy it so much. Idk what Iâm going to do with myself after next Friday đ

Jeanette Dawe
2023-12-28 22:38:07 +0000 UTC
I agree. We needed the Unholy Trinity together!
Also, I agree. Them ending up together probably is what she would have wanted with them being so close for so long irl. I've seen shows where characters ended up with someone random at the end that nobody knows. Its always disappointing. Especially when they have had many long term relationships over the course of the series just to end up with a character we don't (or barely know) at the end
Jennifer Lawrence

Wow, what a journey! I only just joined your Patreon this year, but I am glad to have been a part of this Glee journey with you, Audrey. Your reactions are so real and I feel every emotion that you feel, which makes me feel like I've known you forever. I originally found your channel for your Buffy reactions, but stuck around to watch you finish out Glee. I hope that once ep 12 is released, and your Glee journey is officially over, that you will consider starting season 2 of Buffy. Its storytelling FAR surpasses that of season 1 and I whole heartedly believe you will be hooked after finishing season 2. Buffy has a HUGE cult following, so it's also a chance to bring new people to your Patreon. Sending much love, from Wisconsin!!!!

I also wish we got an update on Quinn, Santana, Brittany and that we couldâve gotten to hear Quinn sing one last time. That being said though, Iâm very thankful they were able to get Dianna back for just this last performance because I know she was pretty busy at the time. Plus all the other former members and I love that Terri was able to come back too. The one I really was disappointed with at the time was that Quinn didnât show up for Brittany and Santanaâs wedding. I know it was likely scheduling conflicts for Dianna but how can you not have the Unholy Trinity together at such a big moment for two of them lol.
I feel like at the time people concluded Rachel ended up with Jesse because Lea had such a close relationship with Jonathan that they felt it was better for her to end up with Jesse than a new character. After Cory, I feel like that was what Lea mightâve wanted.
Benjamin Smith
2023-12-28 22:28:04 +0000 UTC
I'm a bit sad we didn't really get a "5 years later" segment for some of the other OG characters. Brittany, Santana, Quinn.. I get that things were rushed and maybe there was some scheduling conflicts. But, it's a bit sad that only really a few of them we got to see what they were up to in the future.
Also, I remember being really upset when it first aired that Rachel ended up with Jesse. I guess maybe in part because at the time Cory's death wasn't as far back as it is now and I liked Finn and Rachel together so much. But, also because I always thought about how awful Jesse was to her. Now, with many years having passed I feel like they are a pretty good fit. Their dreams for the future, goals, lifestyles, passions etc align rather well. Perhaps even more than her and Finn. Obviously I wish Cory was still around and they could have gotten their happy ending. But as a backup plan I'm happy with it. I also, now that more years have passed since highschool have learned how much we change and grow after leaving our teenage years behind. So holding the way Jesse acted towards Rachel when they were essentially kids isn't really a reason to not like them together. They both would have grown and changed since then and (hopefully) moved past the lying and bullying.
Rachel being a surrogate was a cute nod/full circle moment to how she was born. And since Lea was pregnant I feel was a good way to write it in. Rather than trying to hide her belly. Or even versus having it be her own kid, since, I'd feel like at that point in her life she would be too busy yet to be thinking about kids lol. Showing Kurt and Blaine interacting with the kids in that class seemed like a big hint towards them becoming parents themselves. They seemed to really enjoy it.
ALSO.. yes! Tina and Artie ending up together was cute and I'm happy with it. Glad Tina finally got what she wanted after chasing after the wrong guys for so long as well as that awkward proposal to Mike.

As many times as I've watched this video I never realized before they brought the old band members back too! I wish they would have panned on them more clearly at least once because this was the first time I noticed it!
Kenyatta (KD) Smith
2023-12-28 22:01:09 +0000 UTC
I think Rachel being a surrogate was because she was born to a surrogate to two gay dads. Now Rachel is a Surrogate to two gay dads.
Wayne Joy
2023-12-28 21:47:34 +0000 UTC
i think "this time" truly is the best song Rachel could sing for the finale. Darren said he wanted to gift this to Lea and he wrote that beautiful song. they also sang it live together (multiple times i think), you should check it out. and considering they've continued being some of the closest friends after the show (i can only think of Lea/Jonathan or Jenna/Kevin being closer), i think it's very cute that he did it for her.
everytime i see sam in this last ep, i always think of "oh man, that should be Finn". i'm not saying this to disrespect Sam's character, but we can all admit that his destiny should have been Finn's. seeing him in all the scenes with the original cast... it's pretty obvious. i wonder how Chord felt since he was pretty close to Cory and also to Lea. to have his story being rewritten in a way that would fulfill Finn's legacy like that : coaching the glee club, the football team, even DATING Rachel! i wonder if Lea and Chord felt weird about that. i think at the end of the day, it's a good career path for him. i just think it's obviously what the writers would have chosen for Finn..
i wonder what is your opinion on "i lived" being the last song on the show? i think back in the day, fans were pretty disappointed by this. but with all the rewatches, i think it's beautiful. and i loved that we didn't get another "dont stop believin", the last one was perfect. maybe they could find a better song, but i like this one. and i don't have any other ideas lol
can't believe you just watch the last glee episode like that hahaha. next week is so far away omg i can't wait!!

Now that I think about it, watching episode 12 as a series finale is genius! Remember your tissues for that one as well! Lol
I love the conclusion that everyone gets! Mercedes, Artie, Tina, Kurt, and Rachel are the core 5. The payoff of seeing how they all ended up was the greatest thing Glee could have given us.
Lea singing âThis Timeâ will never not make me cry. What a beautiful gift Darren gave to her, and to us, by writing that song. And just as an afterthought, since we did not have a Tony awards in 2020 due to the pandemic, Rachel Berry is technically the only Tony winner for that year! Lea was also pregnant in 2020 so itâs funny watching it back now.
I love Sue becoming vice president, itâs the perfect job for her.
Thank you for your Glee reactions, itâs been a great ride! See ya next week for the last one and have a happy new year!

I pretty much cry through the entire 2 final episodes every time lol. Watching them essentially grow up and find their own "happy endings". Also, as someone who LOVES the arts I'm taken back to elementary school where we would have an art class maybe once a month due to funding. And so many things cancelled/scaled down because of money... The idea of an entire arts school for teenagers gets me every time. I would have loved that. I went to a big sports school (not my thing). Since I graduated they even added a huge stadium. Sports were always more of a priority as they I'm sure brought in more money back to the school. But there's so many other avenues for talents than just sports.

I think Schuester was crying because he actually was saying goodbye. Goodbye to the OGs that had been there for most of that school year as well as that chapter of his life. He said he wouldn't be coaching anymore and would only be acting as principle of the school from now on.
The OGs should be around 26 with the last time jump, so quite a normal age for kids.
And of course everyone's getting their happy ending. It's Glee.
I never was a big fan of Rachel or Lea Michele but I love her last song of the show. You can see that Darren wrote it for her and for this scene especially and she delivers perfectly. (Darren was actually nominated for an Emmy for it. And if you are interested, in this video he talks about the creation of the song:

Second. Glee literally changed the world at the time in terms of arts programs in education. When this show came out arts funding and programs were like being run out of schools. When glee came along it was such a phenomenon that kids everywhere wanted to be in choir and glee club and theatre. I remember starting the glee club at my school in like 2012/2013. This show was sooo life changing for so many people. It makes me a little sad that the impact is a little lost in time since now the show is so memeable but it really broke boundaries. I will literally never forget the impact this show had on me and the rest of the world.

So a couple things. Rachel would probably be around 26/27 here. Because they had time jumps from season 4-6. So if Finn died at 19 then 2 years passed after that. So they would be 21 in season 6. So then 5 years later they would be 26/27 which is still young for kids but itâs definitely more normalized.

Iâve been watching/re-watching Glee since I was in middle school and this journey with you watching for the first time made me realize Iâve NEVER actually finished glee! I get to episode 9 season 6 and I stop watching. Even now I canât bring myself to finish the series. I watched episode 9 with you and then went back to watching your season 1 reactions! âŠJust a random self realization!

I donât know about that because one of the two older ones Sam was playing with had to be Daniel and the littlest one, Emma was holding which I donât think she would be if it wasnât hers so they have to be Willâs. Plus in my head canon, Sam and Quinn ended up together. I will always stick to this no matter what because of the staging of the final number. We saw Tina and Artie were together after the time jump and almost everyone who was a couple entered on stage together like Brittany/Santana, Kurt/Blaine, Jesse with Rachel. So the fact they had Quinn with Sam alongside Tina and Artie is proof enough for me lol. Plus they couldâve had her come in with Puck and they didnât.

Ok first of all to what you said at the beginning, I am so sorry for your losses and I feel so bad for Danny for losing so many peopleđ feel hugged you guysđ«
Now I prepared a whole speech for this episode so get ready lol
I, just as many other people on here, got introduced to you because of Glee. I first saw your reaction on youtube and knew the minute I saw you that I'm gonna love you. And now, 2+ years later that hasn't changed and you're still the only person I follow on patreon and even tho glee is over, I'm not gonna unsubscribe. I mean sure there's still OUaT but even if it wasn't I wouldn't leave. You honestly feel like a part of my family now cause whenever I felt bad I just knew I could watch one of your reactions, either here or on youtube and I knew it would cheer me up. So, thank you so much Audrey and Danny and David and everyone involved for being here all those years and giving us those glee reactionsâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž (I know there is now an episode left but I prepared this for months to comment on the finale, which this still is!!đ)
Now a little to the episode, I cried from start to finish lol. I don't know why but I cried even more here than on the Quarterback episodeđ Also, "Mercedes Jones has left the building" never fails to make me cryđ
Last but not least I have to say that "I lived" is gonna be my kryptonite song. It destroyed me on this episode, it destroyed me when Zoeys Dad on Zoeys Extraordinary Playlist sang it... aaahđđ Seeing everyone return (except sadly Marley/Melissa Benoist as she was busy with Supergirl) always makes me cry. And Quinn and Matt (the guy from season 1 everyone forgot about) and then Santana..đ„ș I so love this finale, they did a great job imo

Lol! But I do think it's interesting to think about watching the 2009 episode after the finale. I feel like it could have been placed either way. Looking forward to seeing how it feels to watch them out of order.

This part ALWAYS pulls at my heartstrings seeing everyone. Not sure why. Love that they bring back even the most minor and sometimes forgotten members of ND.

I have also watched Glee countless times and NEVER noticed the look Emma gave Terry until this viewing lol
Also, never thought that some of the kids at Will's could be Sam's. That's an interesting take and I feel like would fall in line with the part where they comment on how many girlfriends he's had.
Talia Shapiro
2023-12-28 19:12:02 +0000 UTC
Ok, my thoughts, buckle up:
1: I have watched Glee, and the finale, at LEAST 7 times, and it wasnât until about 3 weeks ago, when I noticed the funny face that Emma made was due to Schuesterâs ex wife hugging him. I hadnât noticed she was even in there, much less hugging him.
2: Rachelâs âThis Timeâ(the second song penned by Darren Criss), was PHENOMENAL! Like, I always tear up getting through it.
3: Sam, using Country as the first lesson for the New Directions was genius, and proved that he knows his stuff.
4: The reunion on stage felt a little campy, tbh, but it was necessary, considering this was the series finale.
5: Sue becoming Vice President, was honestly one of the âpath of least resistanceâ moments for her; considering that she was basically cast as Republican (during âThe Hurt Locker, Part 2â, with the flashbacks of her cringing at the presidential losses), not to mention the she has always been a lady of power.
6: I think a couple of the kids in Will and Emmaâs house were Samâs, just a feeling. Nothing backs that up, of course, but itâs just an intuition.
7: The renaming of the auditorium was supposedly a last minute decision, considering that we had lost Cory later in Season 4. They had plans to make more seasons, but with Cory gone, they had to bring it full circle.
8: Iâm a little miffed that we didnât get to see the New Directions perform at Nationals, but I understand that they needed to speed things up to get to the juicy part of the episode.
All in all, great Series Finale, I canât wait to see what the Glee Project has in store next year.

Iâve been waiting years for this lol. The final number! Loved seeing everyone past and present of ND together at once. In case you didnât catch them all Sugar came in behind the current Glee Club members. Matt the guy from the first season returned with Mike during the song. Karofsky, Lauren Zizes, and Jake entered with Puck, Santana, Kitty, and Brittany. The 3 Glee Project kids came in last. The only two that didnât make it for the number were Marley and Rory due to scheduling. Iâm guessing Rory wouldâve came in with the other GP kids and Marley with Kitty and Jake had they been there. Also Myron was not there since it was 5 years later and he wouldâve aged so he couldnât be in it without recasting an older version of him. Iâm actually glad you accidentally watched this one first haha.
