Top 10 Things ONLY Glee Fans Understand

being a part of something special makes you special right welcome to ms mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 things only glee fans understand do you know how demeaning it is when they just turn to you and yell hit it and you're just supposed to know what song they're gonna sing isn't that the whole point of the arts pushing boundaries doing things people say you can't do for the sake of self-expression oh it's the dawn of a new era here at mckinley and we are gonna rule this school for this list we'll be looking at things from the series and within the fan base that would only make sense if you're a huge gleek how many of these can you relate to let us know in the comments number 10 everybody loves blaine when darren criss was cast as rival glee club member blaine anderson he was immediately a massive hit with glee fans well next time don't forget your jacket new kid you'll fit right in his first song performed on the series a cover of katy perry's teenage dream hit number eight on the billboard charts at its peak popularity and sold 214 000 singles in the first week [Music] some theories even claim blaine's popularity directly affected the size of his role in the series with him being rewritten as kurt's love interest and eventually moved over to the new directions and the main cast oh wait wait you didn't do this for me did you because if you did this for me i mean you'd be very romantic for one but i mean it could lead to resentment which could lead to anger which could lead to a horrible horrible nasty breakup like you know on the bachelorette i came here for me because i can't stand to be apart from the person i love for glee fans it's not hard to see why his part was expanded darren chris is a fantastically talented performer and it makes complete sense that he's so universally loved number nine freaking out over this super crossover in 2017 most glee fans already knew about the cw superhero shows the flash and supergirl starring former glee stars grant gustin and melissa benoist respectively aware of their unique fan base the showrunners decided to use a crossover episode between the two shows as a special musical episode if you're ever broke i've got the cash on my couch you're welcome to crash i'll be there in a flash barry as if this wasn't enough it also featured a guest appearance from darren chris who played the villainous music meister come on now maybe just one little fun opening number just to leave your jacket on kick things off think of your fellow men stop that's not happening after two years without a new episode of glee this was a truly exciting moment for anyone who missed the ridiculous performances from their favorite musical television series bravo round of applause standing o that was so good i loved it that was a hell of a show number eight brad the piano player definitely one of the strangest characters on glee was brad the ever present but usually silent piano player for the many performances in the new directions choir room brad was played by brad ellis who was originally brought on as a musical director and vocal coach for the cast but also provided on-screen accompaniment for the musical numbers brad he's always just around he became a mysterious source of intrigue for glee fans who were delighted by his occasional silent sassy reactions to various events and scenes my fiance called me a puppet master well if pulling strings means that i encourage people to reach their fullest potential then hell yeah guilty is charged even more exciting was his first line in season four a hilarious rant to sue about how much he hates the glee club i can't tell you how much i hate those kids do you know how demeaning it is when they just turn to you and you'll hit it and you're just supposed to know what song they're going to sing for die hard glee fans brad definitely makes the list of best glee characters number seven the importance of don't stop believing [Music] since the first episode of glee in 2009 don't stop believin has become much more than just another journey anthem to the many fans of the series the song was performed by the cast of glee six times on the show with surprise the solo going to rachel every single time the recurring song was hated by jenna ushkowitz heather morris and kevin mchale who played tina britney and artie respectively others like leah michelle loved the cover and considered it one of their favorites for fans opinions are similarly split but whether you love it or hate it it's undeniable that it's one of the most iconic covers from glee and instantly comes to mind whenever anyone mentions the series [Music] number six being obsessed with glee tick tock if you're a glee fan and you're not on tick tock yet that needs to change immediately i'm afraid we're out of time what do you mean i just sit down well the therapeutic hour is 50 minutes and you just spent 48 of them disinfecting the chair tons of gleeks are already on the platform creating hilarious content that pokes fun at the show in the way only glee fans can you want to see the song that says i like big butts and i cannot lie in the style of mumford and sons that's exactly it honestly i don't like it oh i bloody love it fans post videos of their favorite quotes and moments from the series talk about plot holes and theories and of course make tons of jokes about ridiculous characters like rachel and mr shuster it goes to show that fan enthusiasm for glee is still alive and well in many ways for viewers all the new entertaining content makes it feel like it's 2010 and at the peak of glee's popularity all over again number five always mentioning when a song was covered on glee over six seasons the cast of glee performed 754 songs in total with most of those being covers of existing material hi i'm rachel berry and i'll be singing new york state of mind written by billy joel popularized by one mr barbara streisand glee introduced its fans to so many artists and songs they had never heard of before in all different genres i'm impressed you're usually so top 40. well i just wanted something a little more emotional for many fans an entirely new category of music had emerged songs that were covered on glee any time the original recording of one of these songs plays a dedicated glee fan will tell you it was on the show and can likely even tell you who sang it and why these fans probably had the glee cast as their number one artist on spotify rapt and might even prefer the glee cover to the original song in some cases [Music] number four wanting your favorite character to have more solos all the characters of glee have little things that draw us to them but everyone has a character that they love more than any other this could be because of their personality talents or any number of reasons chances are though unless your favorite character was rachel you thought your fave was totally robbed and deserved way more solos than they got i think you're being unfair to tina who might have been happy about getting her first solo tina knows how much i respect her and i think she would agree with me that she's not ready for such an iconic role as maria wait i'm a jet while most of the characters had at least a few moments to shine in solo performances there are definitely still fans who will argue that there should have been more quinn or arty numbers for example for now we'll just have to settle for listening to papa don't preach again and mourning the solos that could have been [Music] sing it again number three all the complicated relationships throughout the entirety of glee the members of the glee club and their fellow students dated and broke up with each other so frequently it would take a glee expert to keep track of their tangled relationship web i don't feel anything because it didn't mean anything sam evans alone dated britney quinn mercedes santana and rachel and can be connected to almost every other character in the series through these links this might sound like a total headache to most people but to glee fans keeping track of who was with who is 100 part of the fun [Music] these fans could easily connect mr shu to jesse st james just through his relationship web which is pretty impressive number two how cringy will shuster is while it was pretty evident mr shu was an unusual teacher while glee was still ongoing since the series has ended it has become all too clear that he was totally creepy the entire time well you need to back your ass up to the fact that you a married 37 year old just performed a song about coercive sexual advances as nine miners twerked alongside you down the hallways of a public high school it's called the first amendment sue to name a few reasons he blackmailed finn so he'd join the glee club encouraged his students to twerk in front of him and made high school students put on a production of the very provocative rocky horror picture show isn't that the whole point of the arts pushing boundaries doing things people say you can't do for the sake of self-expression it's all too easy to come up with many more examples and big glee fans can happily name dozens more to anyone who will listen while certainly unintentional mr shu has definitely become one of the most universally hated characters from the series the truth is i'm ashamed to be a teacher is to offer students a gateway to the future and i blew it how could i have become so out of touch before we unveil our number one pick here are some honorable mentions thinking miata was a real university and totally wanting to go there new students welcome to the round room the acoustics are perfect and there are no corners which means there is nowhere to hide wanting to experience getting slushied it's the dawn of a new era here at mckinley and we are going to rule this school knowing the original cast is the best and newer members

perfect television series the show had plenty of cringy questionable and downright problematic moments in the six years it was on television well why don't we just um take a moment to really absorb what we've just watched this is garbage finn no he's right nevertheless there's still clearly a strong fan base who sees the series like a younger sibling no one can say anything negative about glee but them truthfully those outside of the fanbase might not realize that glee fans have spent tons of time critically analyzing and debating the show like the masterpiece it is they will honestly tell you all the problems they have with the series but nothing would ever be enough to make them lose their love for the show in all its campy glory okay look believe what you want but no one's forcing me to be here and if you ever tell anyone this i'll deny it but i like being in glee club it's the best part of my day okay do you agree with our picks check out this other recent clip from ms mojo and
