The Hit Glee TV Series - An Outsider Looks Into the Phenomenon

Glee, the all singing, all dancing TV sensation is taking the world by storm. While inevitable similarities to High School Musical are being created left, right and centre, the Glee series is taking a little bit of a different direction to those films. It tends to indicate that characters aren’t excellent, and on the whole could be a very little more realistic than the Zac Efron/Vanessa Hudgens spectacle.

Glee’s second season is on its way, and rumours are already doing the rounds of a Glee movie version, except for the time being it’s staying on TV, where it’s garnering huge audience figures. It isn’t simply happening stateside either, as Glee mania has gripped fans round the world.

The soundtrack CDs of songs from the Glee TV series are proving to be huge hits with followers, as is that the infamous cover version of ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ by vintage rock band Journey. Ok, therefore it might come back across as sugary and persistently twee, it does have its redeeming elements. The characters aren’t excellent, scrawny, immaculate idols. Many of them come over as normal, with regular issues and issues. Certain, the show is regarding as hard hitting as Pokemon, but it’s its worth.

While the Glee TV series is way from unique, it’s really tapped into the fanbase that was left shocked by the end of High School Musical, and in the process it’s gathering yet more followers, all of whom want more singing and dancing comedy drama in their life. Essentially, it’s filling followers with glee. As bad as that pun is, it would seem to be true!

I should stress that I’m not an exponent in any method, form or form. However, I do honestly believe a TV show with a positive message, that follows a assortment of underdog characters, definitely has its place on our screens. I might actively dislike the show, but there are various people that like it, and I am unable to deny them that, as it’s an inoffensive and entertaining series that a nice several people are getting something out of.

The Glee TV series is picking up a fine tradition of aspirational TV series for viewers inquiring the traditional changes of life, selecting up the baton from shows like Fame and its kind. With Glee TV series merchandise proving itself to be greatly wanted, and every episode generating more fans and more chat, it’s a fairly safe bet that the Glee TV series will be around for some time yet. This is something that, to its several fans, is really value a song and dance.
