I don't think taking over the glee club was even a wholly "Finn" thing either. Sam and Blaine pretty much co-ran the New Directions in season 4 and 5. Of all things to come out of nowhere on this show, this one did come out of somewhere.

less laughter posted:He didn't get Rachel though, Jesse did. That's literally the only difference. And like, I totally get how it makes sense but at the same time it often felt like Chord Overstreet reading lines written for Finn. Not always, but often enough to feel weird.

I mean, I get what you're trying to say but, like...literally no. None of Sam's lines in the finale would've worked if they were transplanted onto Finn.

I dunno, when he went into teacher mode that jumped out at me. And I suppose I should've said it happened a lot more with his interactions with Rachel so I was more referring to the season as a whole rather than just the finale.

The flashback episode was completely pointless because only half of it happened before the pilot but I was kind of impressed with the acting and the hair/makeup. It actually looked like it was from season one despite Hollywood changing their appearances. Autistic Rachel was always funny to me. Finale was alright. Sue becoming the vice president is the dumbest thing that this show has established but everything else was realistic enough. The original five didn't EGOT or anything.

I guess I'm the only one who thought 2009 was an actual collection of deleted scenes cut from the pilot? If that's just what I'm supposed to think, then fine; I wouldn't think they had the budget to pull off something like that shot in the present-day. Y'know, and the whole "Corey Monteith being there" thing. My main takeaway from the finale was how pointless all of this ended up being. This show didn't make any stars other than arguably Colfer and brought Jane Lynch even more into the mainstream consciousness, but other than that there aren't any success stories coming out of this unceasing morass.

I cried, but I cry every time they show old footage of or refer to Finn. I do wish we had less 2009 and instead had more 2020 with all of the characters. Though seeing Puck as an rear end was really cool. And seeing The original Don't Stop Believing was a great way to tie it all together. I watch this and think about what might have been and it makes me sad.

I think I remember an interview with Lea Michele commenting on how hard it was to talk like Season 1 Rachel, and other clips show Jenna and Kevin talking about going back to the 'old days', so 2009 was definitely shot in 2015. That last bit with Finn/Corey is literally just the pilot performance footage. You even have that pan up to Sue with Santana and Quinn, glaring. I really liked 2009, to be honest. (I think Jenna's gotten better at faking a stutter.) Dreams Come True was... a thing. Like just checkboxes of saccharine happiness. [As for pointlessness, it could be argued that Glee did a lot to further LGBT representation in mass media. And, uh, Kurt really meant a lot to me a couple years back when I was in high school.]

Man, the ratings for the finale were SO BAD.

the truth posted:Apparently it was still the highest rated episode of the final season, and higher than last season's finale. Ironically "2009" got the season high rating. "Dreams Come True" was right in line with the rest of the season. It's just the average of the two hours was the 0.8/season high.

We got one last ugly-crying Rachel solo. It's over. It's done.

I randomly watched the Season 3 Christmas episode today, and I had totally forgot Finn buying a star and naming it after himself so Rachel would know he was always looking down on her if he were to die or something.

I finally finished the season. Did Kurt and Blaine end up in an alternate future where the 80s came back? The best part of the episode was Emma's face when Terri hugged Will in the last number. I miss Jayma Mays. This final season didn't disappoint me as much as I thought it would, but it didn't really make me feel anything either. It just made me miss the old show, but every season had been doing that. I'm finally free.
