Shues wife never miscarried 😭. She fully convinced herself she was pregnant when she wasn’t. But she already told Will she was pregnant. 😭😭

@IsaacCantwell Ай бұрын

Yeah that right, a hysterical pregnancy or something

@jaimelowe4246 Ай бұрын

I thought she made up the pregnancy to get him to quit being a teacher and be an accountant or something.

@Ray_Vun Ай бұрын

she made up the pregnancy to keep him around and then had to start playing games. i think at one point she actively was trying to get pregnant but the tests kept coming back negative

@emiliamaria6148 Ай бұрын

@@jaimelowe4246 it was but there’s also a scene where she’s at the doctors and he explains to her that she had a hysterical pregnancy

The worst part of the Marley plot line is that Kitty (mean cheerleader/Glee member) was intentionally making her clothes smaller so she thought she was gaining weight, in turn making Marley bulimic. And when she passed out during the competition Kitty had the gall to be mad too. And Mr. Shu was mad at Marley and Kitty never had any consequences!!

Babes, this is really funny, but you’ve messed a lot of them up, and have even made some storylines tamer than they really were. For the puppet storyline: they don’t get turned into puppets for the rest of the episode. After the imaginary puppet gas leak Blane starts making puppet versions of all his friends. He also gets detention for walking around with a puppet of his fiancé, making him unable to go and visit his fiancé; and he later breaks into the school to try and get back the confiscated Kurt puppet. For the alcohol awareness episode: the other glee members pressure Rachel to have a party as her dads are away for the week (she is supposedly the only character that has never had a drink). That same week also happens to be alcohol awareness week at school, so the glee club is tasked with finding a song about alcohol to perform at an assembly. The majority of the club does end up drinking excessively for the rest of the episode, and they throw up on stage as they’re performing tik tok by Kesha; the principal considers it a success. ALSO: the glee club teacher gets drunk and sends a *questionable* voicemail to the guidance councillor, only Sue gets it instead, and she blasts it over the speakers in school to slut shame him and call him an alcoholic. The bulimia plot: while putting up a production of grease, the head cheerleader, Kitty, decides to start sewing in Marnie’s costume to make her think she’s gaining weight. When Marnie shows concern about it, Kitty tells her to throw up to lose weight. Marnie becomes bulimic, and ends up passing out during sectionals a couple episodes later during gagnam style. Everyone blames Marnie for her eating disorder. Kitty eventually comes clean to Marnie, but it happens during a school shooting episode, so it’s never mentioned again, and Kitty never faced any repercussions. Bohemian Rhapsody: the glee club doesn’t actually sing Bohemian Rhapsody, their rivals, Vocal adrenaline, perforn bohemian rhapsody; and the footage is intertwined with Quinn giving birth. The only time she “sings along” is during the “let me go” part of the song as she for some reason shouts it while giving birth. Sue gummy vitamins: sue loses her top 3 cheerleaders after demanding that they choose between glee or cheering. The cheerleading budget goes to the glee club, and so she writes in her journal “yes, losers. I’m committing SUE-icide”, and “attempts” to od on vitamin gummies. Fake pregnancy: Terry (Will’s wife) didn’t have a miscarriage. She had an hysterical pregnancy, and was never actually pregnant. She fakes her pregnancy once she finds out it isn’t real, and tries to convince a girl in the glee club to give her her baby once it’s born. The question mark toilet: Unique (a trans student) doesn’t feel safe in either gendered bathroom, and a porta potty ends up getting bolder to the floor in the choir room. Unique sings if I were a boy. At the same time the glee club is obsessed with twerking. Sue (who is the principal at this point) tells Will that she’ll give Unique a set of keys to the teachers toilets if the glee club stops twerking; but Will says no and performs Blurred lines with the kids in the glee club as they’re twerking down the hall. Will eventually lets go of twerking, and Unique gets her keys to the teachers bathrooms. Like a virgin: 3 “couples” decide to have sex, where it’s the first time for one person in every duo. Like a virgin is performed in a foreplay fantasy sequence. Only one “couple” ends up having sex. Oh, also, one of the couples is will (the glee club teacher) and the school’s guidance councillor; so while we’re seeing 2 teachers getting it on, it’s paralleled by 2 sets of students getting it on at the same time. Dentist Britney: the glee club wants to do Britney songs, but one of the students refuses as she, Brittany S. Pierce, has apways felt like she lived in the shadow of Britney Spears. During a visit to the dentist, the dentist plays a Britney song, and Brittany imagines herself as Britney and changer her mind on performing a Britney song. Everybody in the glee club that goes to the dentist has their own Britney fantasy; and the episode ends on the glee club performing an overly sensual version of Toxic by Britney Spears WITH their teacher in front of the whole school, and it apparently turns all the high school students on so much that they have a horny riot, and sue ends up pulling the fire alarm to break everything up and stop the glee club’s performance. Nobody gets addicted to anaesthetics. Britney Spears has a cameo, but she doesn’t dance with anyone. Oh, and the dentist is a reoccurring character played by none other than John Stamos

For rewatching glee, this couldn’t have been better timed 🎉

@kylie4637 Ай бұрын

It’s very clear that you haven’t watched all of glee because Marley doesn’t have her clothes taken in because she’s bulimic. Her clothes are taken in by kitty (the new head cheer leader) to make Marley think she is heavy (because her mom isnt skinny and is a constant joke line) and kitty also shows Marley how to make herself throw up after eating. So basically, Kitty convinces Marley that she’s gaining weight “like her mom” and to become bulimic and that’s why Marley passes out at the competition

In musicals its said when the emotion gets to much they sing if it gets more they dance. There are some musicals that tackle hard issues like dear evan hansen which explores suicide and mental health issues.

@kylie4637 Ай бұрын

ALSO wills wife never miscarried. She had a phantom pregnancy (she had symptoms and thought she was pregnant). But she found out she wasn’t around 9 weeks and then bought fake bumps and fake sonograms to pretend she still was until will (glee teacher) found out she wasn’t. And it was during this time that she tried to get Quinn to give up her baby to her

@petercmparker1507 Ай бұрын

I see many people in the comments getting upset because he got parts of the storylines wrong and like?? its not that deep, like hes just not remembering the storylines fully? some of you are genuinely getting angry and acting like hes doing this one purpose lmao

@lolawhitwood6468 Ай бұрын

I still think the scene with Sam shouting at Artie for telling the girl about the std is horrendous as well as Marley getting kicked out of glee for not wearing a bra

@Ray_Vun Ай бұрын

one of us must be misremembering, because i remember unique singing if i were a boy because there was some drama between them and ryder, on whom unique also had a bit of a crush on, and unique sings that almost as a love ballad but also it being about ryder not getting what it's like for unique and unique not fitting in because they're not one of the boys. i genuinely do not remember the bathroom thing

“Musicals don’t tend to tackle hard hitting issues because you can’t sing about that sh!t.” Someone’s never seen RENT one of the greatest musicals of all time and one where most of the songs are about either 1. Dying of AIDS or 2. Living in poverty.

Why is this guy exaggerated already weird storylines? They were not puppets the entire episode. They didn't all discover alcohol in the same week, and none of them became alcoholic. Jenna who plays Tina is Korean, etc.

@Islanzadi95 Ай бұрын

I think the alcohol thing is kinda accurate? In Blame It on the Alcohol they all start drinking, all escalate to drinking in school to avoid a hangover and pretty much all of the songs are indeed about alcohol. It's not a storyline about long-term alcoholism but they do all immediately have unhealthy habits concerning alcohol...

@suz2590 Ай бұрын

@@Islanzadi95 1. He said they didn't discover alcohol until that week, that is false. 2. He said they became alcoholics after that week, again untrue. 3. We never saw that they had an unhealthy relationship with alcohol after that. 4. The songs were about alcohol because they were told to find a song about alcohol. Again, no reason to exaggerate or flat out lie about what we actually saw.

Why does no one talk about the fact they had an obsession with teen marriage like, Finn and Rachel were 18, Kurt was 19 and Blaine was 18 although there was a time jump at the end so maybe they were 19 and 20 before they split up, THEN in season 6 Brittany and Santana were 20 and blain and kurt were 19 and 20 maybe 20 and 20 when they got married like..
