Vandalism

The names of the actors on the right side are completely wrong. Someone please change it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.217.77.61 (talk) 23:35, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

PTC on Showmance

I'm not sure why an editor is intent on edit warring this sentence out of the article at the moment, but I thought I'd mention that I actually took the same thing out myself back in September, when we were working on getting Glee (season 1) to FL status. It was brought up in the review at the time that there was considerable overlap between that article and this, so I tried to excise parts of this article that are specific to single episodes, as the PTC's comments on "Showmance" are. So while I'm certainly not endorsing the on-going edit war, I think the reception section here should be for broader reviews, rather than responses to individual episodes.

I think that, as it is such a strong criticism of Glee, it probably warrants going on the main page. I can understand why simple reviews of episodes don't belong there, but as this is over quite a serious thing, I think it should stay. I think the same organisation criticised another of the episodes, so that could be added (I'll work on finding a source at some point). Is there anything we can do to put an end to this stupid edit war? TomBeasley (talk) 22:31, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Number of Seasons

It says that there are 6 seasons, Is that right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.201.170.12 (talk) 15:59, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

No. I've fixed it. Thanks for pointing that out! Yves (talk) 16:01, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

The Glee Project

According to this, it's going to be a reality show competition, with the winner being cast on Glee. I would think that this deserves a sentence in the article somewhere and likely a full section once the show finally airs in June. Silverseren^C 04:51, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

Ryan Murphy & Brad Falchuk

I think Ryan Murphy makes the funniest episodes and Brad Falchuk makes the best stories (script, screenplay) in the episodes.--187.146.39.23 (talk) 04:20, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

"Positive effects"?

The article states that "The series' cover versions have also had a positive effect on the original recording artists" and only lists one Rihanna song with a source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.117.170.132 (talk) 18:08, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Wrong CD's

On there it says that there are only 3 soundtracks in May 8, 2011 will be 5! So it is all wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ruben 1120 (talk • contribs) 00:10, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

If I'm looking at the correct sentence, it says three soundtrack volumes were released for the first season, which is correct. The sixth volume is planned for release in less than a week, and I've added it to the merchandise section. Yves (talk) 00:16, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Glee no mention of the comic.

The description is not included in the Glee comics. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boros1124 (talk • contribs) 07:16, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

There's not much press coverage of this (from reliable sources) and on the publisher's website there's no mention of this comic at all. I found some copies on ebay, but their cover says it's “unauthorized”, so I guess it's not mentioned because that would be giving it undue weight. --Six words (talk) 09:08, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Will's Ex-Wife, Not wife

In the first lines of the article, it says "Will's wife, Terry..." needs to be changed to ex-wife, they got divorced awhile ago. Just a small edit, but one I can't make. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.82.184.211 (talk) 21:15, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Per WP:IN-U we try and not write the article based on fictional aspects of the show, but the real world aspect. So we try and make the article as accurate as possible, at one point they were married, so by putting ex, it forms a timeline and makes the earlier episodes false. I can't remember where this discussion took place... CTJF83 21:21, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, I just changed it. I'm going to self-revert. --Six words (talk) 21:24, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

"Gleeks" is a portmanteau, not a conflation

The page incorrectly identifies the term "Gleeks" as a conflation of Glee and geeks, when it is a portmanteau of those two words. Brobinson9999 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 09:41, 18 March 2011 (UTC).

 Fixed thanks, CTJF83 03:25, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Glee articles are full of contradictions

First, I have placed this here because it is the center of all the Glee articles. These articles have numerous contradictions. Quinn Fabray's page says that Ryan Murphy is planning to recast the show at the end of season 3. Rachel Berry's says that she may graduate, the episodes page says that the cast won't go away in 2012, but nothing is posted on the actual Glee page. Just the other pages. Is there something wrong with this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwolvesto50 (talk • contribs) 08:05, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Flow of the article

I wanted to suggest moving some of the sections around for ease of use by putting the "Cast and Characters" and the "Broadcast" sections before the "Music and Choreography" section. Or at least before the "Promotion" section. I'm not sure what the wiki rules/guidelines say about how an article should be structured, please let me know.

Broadcast 20 hours after the US

It reads, " It also airs in the United Kingdom,[58] and in Ireland, where most episodes premiere 20 hours after their US broadcast." This is kind of incorrect, as it is weeks behind when it is broadcast in the UK. I.e, the Valentine's DAy special was on only three weeks ago or so. Thats more like 20 days than 20 hours. just sayin'.
