well the show wasn't exactly known for its stellar continuity welcome to Ms mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the top ten Glee plot holes and inconsistencies you never noticed before we begin we publish new content every day so be sure to subscribe to our Channel and ring the bell to get notified about our latest videos for this list we're looking at plot holes story inconsistencies and contradictions regarding the character personalities or motivations found throughout Glee number 10 the Glee club's popularity have you ever noticed that the Glee club's popularity wildly fluctuates from season to season in a night of neglect the club encounters great resistance when trying to round up people to attend their benefits concert [Music] however back in the first season they managed to secure a full house for their fall Invitational but it's not just inconsistencies in audience numbers reactions to the club dramatically vary as well sometimes the club receives cheers and ovations after performing both on stage and off other times they are relentlessly heckled or met with great indifference from the students we're doing the song this Friday at the pep assembly in front of the whole school exactly they're gonna throw fruit at us it's almost as if it depends entirely on what that episode's specific story entails number nine special education we can chalk this one up to a simple joke but it's still an inconsistency dammit way back in the second episode sue gives will a list of McKinley's special education classes so he can find recruits for the glee club Elsa took the liberty of highlighting some special ed classes for you maybe you can find some recruits because I'm not sure there's anybody else who's gonna want to swim over to your island of misfit toys it's a funny joke that was quickly forgotten however sue later runs for Congress and mentions that there is no special education program at McKinley contradicting a list she gave to will you know what public school program is the first to go in a recession special education their special needs kids and McKinley yeah there's no special ed classes no special ed teacher either this was a joke not meant to be taken so seriously there was never a special ed program and Sue just made it up to annoy will or her remark was a false statement made for sympathy number eight Figgins approved songs [Music] in the same episode that sue gives will the list of special education classes Principal Figgins gives well a list of pre-approved songs that promote family-friendly values recommended to him by his pastor you kids can only perform these pre-approved musical selections but all these songs have either Jesus or balloons in the title Quinn then performs I say a little prayer with the Cheerios and the lists and the restrictions are never mentioned again in fact not only is the list entirely ignored but the New Directions try to sing religious songs in grilled cheesus only for Figgins to deny their right to do so explicitly contradicting the list he received from his pastor children should be allowed to profess whatever faith they choose as a be ET awards but not in a public school we guess he forgot about the family-friendly values number 7 rider quitting glee club we can chalk the previous entries up to jokes or plot necessities however there's simply no forgiving or overlooking this one in the fourth season finale all or nothing rider dramatically mentions that he will be quitting the glee club after regionals after regionals is over I'm officially leaving glee club I'm sorry mr. Shue and wouldn't you know it he never actually quits this would obviously be fine if the show explained his character development but we never received any indication that he had changed his mind that he left and later returned or that he made up with unique we were just supposed to forget about it and pretend it never happened and we did number 6 Finn's desire to leave Ohio another character inconsistency is Finn's deep connections to Ohio throughout the early seasons Finn seems committed to living a simple life in the state bring him along he'll be great if we need to move anything everything Finn welcome country boy Rachel calls spin a country boy when discussing life in New York City and Finn shows contentment working at Burt's auto shop as a laborer you know you're really talented talented enough to get into NYADA if you applied what if I don't want to I'm not saying that I don't but stay here work for Burton I mean would that be so bad there seems to be no indication that he desires to leave Lima or even Ohio however in the third season episode the first time Finn becomes upset when cooter does choose him for the Buckeyes and shows outward disgust at the thought of staying in Lima forever no I don't understand what any of this means means I suck it means I'm gonna be stuck here forever Cooter's not gonna recruit me which is it Finn number five Quinn's big plans here's a tip for future showrunners if you have a character say that they have big plans it's best if you actually go through with them instead of dropping the idea altogether near the end of the second season Quinn ominously tells Finn that she has big plans for their New York trip and this isn't like a blink and you'll miss it type thing it's the final foreboding scene that leaves the episode on a cliffhanger if I quickly clip my big plans for New York could've in rent my plans you'll see and while in New York Quinn does absolutely nothing oh that's not exactly true she goes for a haircut after opening up to Brittany and Santana I think I know how to make you better was that her big plan cry and get taken out for a sympathy haircut number four Kurt and Rachel's finances newsflash living in the heart of New York City is not cheap even with roommates Rachel and Kurt lived the high life in New York they live in a killer loft they begin dressing with impeccable fashion and they fly back to Ohio like every other weekend and just where exactly are they getting the money for this they don't regularly have steady jobs student loans don't cover that and we seriously doubt that their parents are giving them $1,800 a month for rent plus living and travel expenses for 1,800 bucks a month we could get a shoebox in Manhattan or this hangar in Bushwick so how exactly did they afford that apartment TV magic we'll go a TV magic number three the glee club has no budget [Music] and for that matter just where the hell is the glee club getting their money for all these elaborate showstoppers a major aspect of the show is that the glee club and McKinley High for that matter doesn't have any money we're barely surviving on the budget we have slashing the Glee budget by 10% cutting our transportation to and from events is like cutting our legs off the club often resorts to raising small amounts of money themselves and McKinley certainly isn't shy about keeping the arts on a shoestring budget so just where exactly does the club get the funds for all the outfits and costumes sets broadway-caliber light rigs and rain machines [Music] maybe from the same place that Kurt and Rachel get the money for their vogue ask New York lifestyles number two Quinn's injury good thing is is that I'm starting to regain feeling so with a lot of physical therapy and your pairs I stand a good chance for full recovery in the episode on my way Quinn runs a stop sign while texting Rachel don't text and drive kids and gets into a horrific car accident [Music] [Applause] she suffers from a badly compressed spine and is confined to a wheelchair the injury is so bad that she has very little feeling in her legs and is uncertain if she will ever walk again despite her optimism believe it or not this is the happiest day of my life five episodes later Quinn is up and about at prom and is back to her normal dancing South with no time at all we're not doctors here or anything but it seems like an awfully short time to recover from such a debilitating injury before we get to our top pick here are some honorable mentions know this last week I've been thinking maybe we shouldn't have broken up maybe it was premature she did grease grease I know it cuz the song I auditioned for glee club was from grease memory yeah number one Rachel's Broadway dreams Rachel's dream of becoming a Broadway star is like the key component of her character she had it all planned out I was gonna make it big on Broadway and maybe do a Woody Allen movie besides possibly her obnoxious diva behavior her passion and ambition towards making it on Broadway it's her single defining characteristic helfen even called off their wedding so she can go to New York and become a Broadway star you're gonna get on that train okay and you're gonna go to New York and you're gonna be a star without me that's how much I love you and while she lands a dream role in funny girl she quickly abandons Broadway for TV burns her bridges with Broadway producers and moves back to Ohio what am I supposed to do do what everyone who just failed miserably does blame everyone else and then go home sorry but what the Rachel of seasons 1 to 4 would never do a thing like that there's character inconsistency and then there's simply dropping almost 5 seasons worth of character development for seemingly no reason whatsoever for 18 years I've had one dream Broadway stardom was like the wings that kept me hovering above the fray do you agree with our pics check out these other great clips
