I know this is like super late but I got a tattoo for Cory last week and I’m catching up on these reactions and this ending always makes me sob but it’s been a while and I’ve just been thinking about him a lot lately

I feel kind of bad for Emma. Coach beast has had several really emotional scenes work a bunch of the kids. Will and sure both got a lot of emotional recognition. But like, Emma counseled and helped almost all of them about really serious issues and idk felt like she deserved a big moment from someone *shrugs*maybe it's just me

Fun Fact(maybe): I heard that Lea Michele and Matthew that plays Mr. Shue dated before Glee now it’s been years since I heard about it but that what I heard which is WILD if it’s true

I absolutely sobbed the first time I watched the show not knowing who we’d see again in season 4. Even now having watched glee 11 times (I can’t help it 😂) I still cry during this episode

OK so I am a blubbering idiot. Not sure how many years it will take me to watch scenes like that with Cory and not break down.

Jeez, I'm so behind on the watch parties, finally got some free time to catch up. This episode...ugh, it still makes me cry too.
I have to say, Burt dancing to Single Ladies might be one my favourite scenes in the show.
And I'm sure someone mentioned this already but there are too many comments to go through, so I'm just going to throw this here (again I'm guessing)...The black cardigan thing (sorry, English is not my first language) Brittany is wearing the whole episode apparently belonged to Naya IRL, Heather decided to wear it because she was sad about Britt not graduating and it gave her comfort. Naya not being around anymore now makes it hit different.

I wish the new cast hadn't been such a carbon copy of the originals. I feel more for the season 6 newbies than any of the season 4 ones and I think it's because they were so obviously brought in to replace the older guys

I disagree, I feel like if the writers had made more of an effort for the new cast, it would've been better. It's like we ran out of ideas so let's get weird.

Instead of ending…I wish they made a clean break with these actors and allowed the new cast to develop. Also, the ending here was good, but it reminded me a bit of Dream High, a Korean drama that was similar (high schoolers singing) that was out at the same time, with the whole bus thing at the end. When their season ended, they had a new cast for Dream High 2. Still love this show though.

This is such a tough episode to watch. I always cry in it. It’s the of an era. It’s tough knowing that this is the end of Finn and Rachel. With his death, they don’t get their happy ending.
The newbies in season 4 are amazing singers. Season 4 is definitely different though.

2022-12-22 21:54:23 +0000 UTC
This episode had me a mess the first time I saw it. It’s still hard, but easier now.
Thanks for these videos! It’s so great to see the reaction from a fresh perspective again!
We see the seniors but very little. Mike, Quinn, Mercedes we see the least. We do hear songs from them but they are more special occasions or guest appearances from them. Now we get a new group as well as some old members who were left behind.
Not seeing Quinn as much sucks the most for me. She’s my favorite character.

Ok I gotta throw my Army Brat thoughts in here seeing as how this is all real and i have been borderline obsessed with Glee forever... but my father is Army Retired Medevac Pilot.. 2 Wars, several combat zones, black OPS, Ret CW4 almost 30 years Hooah! I am Military through and through and normally I would say its never a mistake to serve however I think he was lost and used it to avoid being a big boy and making decisions and finding direction. Even grownup when you join the Army your life is not your own neither they chose for you... Also I truly feel in certain circumstances, if a person joins for for the wrong reasons and doesn't simply have the passion and pride to protect and serve, then they could put themselves and battle buddies at risk. The last person you want next to you in a combat zone is a highschool kid pouting about life being hard.
Ready for season 4......❤❤❤❤😁😁😁😁😁😘😘😘

Just odd because they seemed to have a deeper conection together that was so easily pushed aside. Plus why does it have to be sexual to help Puck gain confidence in hmself?

The only community chat I know of on here is the Discord chat. That is currently open.
I totally fully agree that there should be another chat place however unless it’s directly connected to Patreon, it hard to manage who’s current with their membership and who’s not. Does Patreon have another chat option that I’m not aware of? If YES then go ahead and private message me so I don’t miss your comment and I can make that happen asap!

2022-12-20 09:30:55 +0000 UTC
I’m sorry but I couldn’t disagree more with all of that. Rachel has been about going to NY since the beginning and the fact she was going to defer and stay in Lima made zero sense. Finn knew this and that is why he did what he did and the way he went about it. Him joining the army and leaving to ensure she goes to NY without him is exactly what happened in the scene. She goes to NY without him regardless. Finn wasn’t going to be happy in NY and Rachel wouldn’t have been happy being stuck in Lima.
Benjamin Smith
2022-12-20 07:40:58 +0000 UTC
So I have to admit something. I don't like Finn as a character (love the actor) he's very manipulative and impulsive. i can't even imagine getting my heart so thoroughly broken, when I think I'm headed to my wedding, and THEN I have to walk a gauntlet of grinning people while she is literally devastated and sobbing because instead of married, she's on a train (why) to New York and leaving as if she has no say in her own life and everyone else knows what is best for her.
He could have just joined the Army and left. She would have gone to new York without him if she couldn't follow him. I just don't get this at all. Why was everyone just okay with letting Rachel think her wedding was still on while they secretly packed her shit and put her on a train?
Cory James
2022-12-20 06:13:45 +0000 UTC
Audrey, none of us are okay during Roots Before Branches. We all cry. It's such an emotional scene and makes us think of the members who are gone, their lives cut short. I don't believe I will ever be able not to cry while listening to this song, anything from The Quarterback, I Wanna Hold Your Hand from Season 2, or If I Were A Boy.

I was thinking that there were other songs on the album, but it had been so many years since I watched the show that I was like wait…
Mia
2022-12-20 05:36:24 +0000 UTC
I remember the day this episode aired, and I was SUCH a hot mess. I went through more than a whole roll of toilet paper from blowing my nose and wiping tears because I cried the ENTIRE episode from start to finish. I can watch it now with minimal tears but it's SO hard still.
Quinn wasn't officially dating Joe. They were cute, but they weren't a couple. There was potential and it seemed like it was hinted at but at the time she kissed Puck she was unattached.
Some of the characters still have plenty of songs, but there's a few characters (Quinn, Puck, and Mike off the top of my head) who we really don't see a ton of going forward, just the odd appearance here and there, which suuuuuuuucks.
Megan Christina
2022-12-20 05:25:07 +0000 UTC
This might be asking a lot, or perhaps you are unaware of it, or it could just end up being too much to manage, but have you considered opening access to the community chat tab? I know it's listed as a feature on the membership page but we don't actually have access. The only reason I ask is sometimes I have a question or comment unrelated to a specific video and it'd be nice to be able to create a separate thread as opposed to commenting on a random or the latest video and it possibly getting lost within all the comments (like this one potentially). Just something to consider 🙂.

2022-12-20 04:19:37 +0000 UTC
I will never forgot the Doctor and Rose scene with the wall and the beach. I’ve only cried that hard from Glee (5-03), GoT, and Lucifer. I wonder if Audrey has seen Doctor who!
Natasha Medina
2022-12-20 03:59:22 +0000 UTC
Wow this episode, the cast, the songs, and your reaction I couldn't help but get emotional as well (that didn't stop me from watching it twice😩). I've been watching the watch parties since the beginning first on YouTube and then I moved to Patreon, and I can't say anything other than thank you. These watch parties have helped me through so much. There were days when I was feeling completely down and hopeless but seeing the notification for the watch parties always brought a smile to my face. I don't comment that often because I'm usually pretty shy and keep things to myself, but I just thought I would use this special episode to thank you for everything. I'm super excited to see you start season 4! Wish you the best in the future! We love you!❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Hello
2022-12-20 01:58:53 +0000 UTC
Wait did we watch the same show? Santana gets even more screen time in seasons 4 & 5. Finn is like one of the main characters of season 4.
Jacob
2022-12-20 01:13:34 +0000 UTC
I'm not a big cryer, I never cry much at all. There are only three shows that have ever made me cry and they are Legends Of Tomorrow, Doctor Who and Glee. I've watched Glee 10+ times easy and I always cry at the end of this episode. Lea is just the most incredible actress and singer, the emotion she puts into the end of this episode is something special. 😭 And you think you're sad now, wait until the end of season 6 and the end of the show completely. I cry for like 20 minutes every time I watch that. 😂 But I'm SO excited for you to start season 4. It's my favourite season of the entire show, you're going to LOVE the new kids. And you do still get to see the graduated people often. Season 4 just adds even more amazing characters for you to become attached to. 😊
Siobhan Linehan
2022-12-20 01:06:13 +0000 UTC
This is a good episode but it always makes me cry. And don't worry, you will see and hear plenty of Mercedes and the rest of the graduates singing. Tou will definitely see the students still in high-school as well.
Veronica_R_T
2022-12-20 00:49:18 +0000 UTC
Ugh, this episode has always broken me but it hits so much harder now that multiple cast members have passed. Especially watching Finn saying goodbye and running after the train.

The NY story line doesn't really get good until Santana. Rachel (and the show) needed that antagonist.

This is a sad episode 😭 but I'm not ready for season 4. But I can't wait that still.
Roots Before Branches ❤️
Moona
2022-12-19 22:38:41 +0000 UTC
I thought Roots was an original song because I'd never heard it before, and eventhough it reminds me to "I hope you dance", still it lacks the classic/epic feel it should've had, IMO. The rest are completely underwhelming and forgettable. They should've kept "We are the Champions" at least for this epsode but it is what it is. They should've ended the season with the previous episode and leave this one as the opening for Season 4.

2022-12-19 22:32:35 +0000 UTC
The ones who didn’t graduate are still main characters and for the seniors it depends. Kurt, Rachel, Santana, Puck, and for the most part, Mercedes are still in it and you hear sing a ton. Finn you don’t hear sing as much but he’s a main character for most of s4, then he’s gone by s5. You don’t see Rory agin except for part of 1 episode. The main storylines swap between Kurt, Rachel and later Santana in NY and the glee club in Lima. Also I’m not a Rachel fan but the ending still makes me emotional.
Selma Jabr
2022-12-19 22:24:41 +0000 UTC
The graduates are still going to be around but most of them are practically gone for goood. Their appearances and performances will be drastically reduced, so basically, it was a real goodbye for them. Mike, Quinn and Puck are the ones we'll see less but even Santana, Finn and Mercedes wll barely be around, just so you prepare yourself mentally for it. The ones that stayed, Rachel andKurt and new cast will be performing often. As Naya fan it's painfully boring to sit through the upcoming seasons.
Capri Zonica
2022-12-19 22:16:59 +0000 UTC
What an episode! So many things happened and it's an end of an era and a start of a new one. 4-6 gets a bad rep, but even if the story gets stale sometimes the music is always great especially in season 4! I'm suprised no one has mentioned this but there's actually a few unreleased songs from the graduation album that never got to make it to the final 2 episodes of the season, so doing a glee vocal reaction to these would be great since you'll never hear them on the show!

2022-12-19 19:12:01 +0000 UTC
I was distraught watching this. I remember being upset not knowing who was returning. And I remember going into this season wondering how they’d do a s4 if everyone was graduating because it wasn’t known until then that not everyone was a senior. I think it’s because I was a junior and it was hitting me so hard that in a year, I’d be graduating high school too.
I was unhappy about the break-up at the time, but now that I’m older, I just have my doubts they would’ve lasted.
You’ll hear everyone sing again, not as frequently as in the first 3 seasons, but this isn’t the last time you’ll hear them. And pretty much everyone sings in the final number.
Mia
2022-12-19 19:11:55 +0000 UTC
God this show can be so dang emotional. As a middle/high schooler (can't remember) watching this live I was DISTRAUGHT. We had no clue what was going to happen, how the show was gonna move forward.

2022-12-19 18:37:58 +0000 UTC
that is so sweet what Naya did for Heather. Heather did look so sad in the choir room.but that's naya so so sweet. and also the camera going to Naya, Cory, mark is so surreal and sad. I cried a million and one tears for them. season 4 can't wait.
Linda
2022-12-19 18:15:37 +0000 UTC
season 3 was one of my favorite seasons!! and you will still see the glee cast sing.
Linda
2022-12-19 18:08:25 +0000 UTC
I don’t know if anyone else has said it, but Cory died before they started season 5. So season 4 will be the last that you’ll see of him. But a lot of people (myself included) think that season 4 has his best arc, so I’m really excited to see your reaction to it. 4x19 is his last episode & 5x3 is the tribute episode.
Jacob
2022-12-19 17:45:15 +0000 UTC
Loved every song. Fall apart every time I watch Roots Before Branches. I have trouble not crying when someone else is crying, and Rachel just destroys me. I always understood (never agreed) why Finn had to join the Army. He wanted that chance to redeem his father, but I think you may have missed his comment. I don't think he would have actually gone, but he said "I knew it was one of the places you couldn't follow me" If he wasn't so sure that Rachel might just dig her heels in and refuse to go along with this, he needed a place that she couldn't follow. And in choosing the Army, he gets a chance to also redeem his father. Not the right choice, but I get it for such naive thinking. I just wish we could have seen his mother telling him this is a dumb idea. Don't think he'd listen, but I want the conversation. I guess they already had it once though.
Shannon Hartman
2022-12-19 17:15:10 +0000 UTC
Ugh, this episode was the second in the series to make me cry, but it definitely wasn’t the last. I think everyone was at the top of their game in this episode, they had all gotten so close with each other and their characters that it really felt like a goodbye.
The Puck/Quinn thing felt, and still feels, like fan service to me. I feel like Quinn had grown beyond Puck at this point in the show and so them getting together was eh, glad he graduated though.
I loooved Kurt’s dad doing the Single Ladies dance! But Blaine being younger than Kurt was something they came up with this season, it was heavily implied that Blaine was older when they first met.
The last scene between Finn and Rachel still makes me cry. I believe Lea and Cory play off each other so well, they do their best work together. They were dating at the time and as a fan it was comforting to see them together filming behind the scenes. Cory went with her to New York while she filmed the closing shots and hung out with her dad behind the scenes. I think someone mentioned this, but they removed the final pages from everyone else’s script so only Cory and Lea knew about the breakup scene and they found out when it aired. Knowing now that Cory dies just a year later makes this even more bitter sweet.

I was an absolute mess this entire episode, but the last scene killed me. Rachel and Finn are my favorite characters and not knowing where they went from here was devastating. We had the comfort of knowing Lea and Cory were together in real life and we got to see him comforting her during this shooting, because she was a hot mess, crying during and between scenes. Production-wise, Roots Before Branches was sung by both Lea and Cory. For the scene, they take Finn's voice away from the song as he lets go of Rachel's hand when she boards the train. That was gut-wrenching storytelling in that moment and it hit hard. Her life was about her Broadway dreams and Finn up to that point and now she had to let one of them go - UGH!!

Yes, Audrey, you’re still gonna hear them sing! You already reacted to a lot of songs from later seasons. ☺️

I remember being a mess watching this when it first aired. I mean, they were so tight-lipped about what was going to happen to the cast that was graduating, so us original gleeks had no idea if this was going to be the last time we saw and heard from them. I followed them from day one and went to all their concerts and events that I could, even going to watch the cast do improv for the young storytellers foundation (Got to see Naya, Kevin, Harry, Cory, Jenna, Darren, Jayma, Dot-Marie Jones, and Iqbal perform live and in person), so I was so heartbroken not knowing if this was the last time we'd see them in glee. They didn't do a concert tour after season 3 because the cast was so burnt out.
I was a mess from the first song. There is a moment when Matt gets to the words Forever Young and the frame stops on Naya and then Cory and Mark and I just get so sad knowing that they will literally be Forever Young.
Poor Heather didn't find out that Brittany wasn't graduating until they filmed this episode which is why we see her wearing that black sweater in a couple of the numbers. It's Naya's and she gave it to her to wear to help comfort her. Her tears were genuine. And the rest of the cast didn't know about the Finchel breakup until the episode aired. Lea and Cory kept that part to themselves since they filmed it separately.
I still think the biggest injustice was Kurt not getting into NYADA given what happened with his audition, but I did love Burt's present for him (Best TV dad ever)

You are still going to see the seniors that graduated just some of them you will see more sporadically throughout the next 3 seasons while some still make a lot of appearances. Rachel is already in New York so obviously you are going to see her. Like you mentioned in this reaction you already know that Santana will be in New York at some point.

Except for Roots Before Branches (And a little bit of I Remember), i don't like the songs in this episode. Idk, even tho they mean a lot for the plot, I think better known songs could be chosen in such a memorable episode. 🫣
