Product Description

It was a choral rendition of Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" that first put Glee on the map, the thrilling end to an intriguing pilot episode that aired after American Idol in May 2009. After the full season began airing that fall, Glee became the most talked about show on TV, a musical-comedy-drama of colorful characters and soaring production numbers. Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) is a teacher at an Ohio high school who decides to coach the glee club (or show choir) that he belonged to when he was a student. The initial members are a ragtag bunch of social outcasts: born-for-Broadway diva Rachel (Leah Michele), big-voiced Mercedes (Amber Riley), wheelchair-bound Artie (Kevin McHale), stuttering goth girl Tina (Jenn Ushkowitz), and closeted gay Kurt (Chris Colfer). But things get interesting when the club starts to prepare for the sectional competition and manages to add some of the school's popular kids: quarterback Finn (Cory Monteith), his bullying teammate Puck (Mark Salling), and cheerleaders Quinn (Dianna Agron), Santana (Naya Rivera), and Brittany (Heather Morris), the final three planted as spies by Schuester's rival, internationally acclaimed cheerleading coach Sue (Jane Lynch). Meanwhile, a triangle develops among Will, his wife (Jessalyn Gilsig), and the school's obsessive-compulsive guidance counselor, Emma (Jayma Mays). Other relationships get tangled, faces are slushied, and Sue plots the club's destruction while tossing out plenty of zingers. (Note that parental discretion is advised due to some mature themes.)

Through the course of its initial 13 episodes and another 9 that aired in the spring of 2010, Glee transfixed its audiences with its offbeat combination of humor and drama and its musical numbers, ranging from Broadway to classic rock to rap, or even merging them together in the show's famous "mash-ups." Michele and Morrison, both with Broadway résumés, get the biggest credits (check Michele's roof-raising "Don't Rain on My Parade" or her "Defying Gravity" duel with Coifer), but the whole cast sings and dances with skill and heart. It didn't take long for entertainment powerhouses of all stripes to take an interest in Glee, either as contributors (such as Madonna, who lent her music to a full episode) or as guest stars. Broadway star Kristin Chenoweth makes numerous appearances as glee-club alumna April Rhodes (none better than her duet with Morrison of "One Less Bell to Answer" and "A House Is Not a Home"), and in the season's best episode, "Dream" (directed by Joss Whedon), Neil Patrick Harris and Idina Menzel (Chenoweth's Wicked costar) sing terrific duets with Morrison and Michele, respectively. Other guest stars, to often-humorous effect, include Josh Groban, Molly Shannon, Eve, and Olivia Newton-John. At the end of the season, well-deserved Emmy wins went to director-creator Ryan Murphy (Nip/Tuck), Lynch, and Harris, and Morrison, Michele, Colfer, and Chenoweth also earned nominations. --David Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful quirky show, July 9 2010
By 
This review is from: Glee: Complete Season One (DVD)
I watched all the shows on TV, then I bought my favorites for my iPod and this is on my Christmas wishlist.

Great actors, great singing, great songs, great guest starts (Eve, Olivia Newton-John, NEIL PATRICK HARRIS to name a few) and even great tributes (Madonna and Lady Gaga).

A show that's been nominated for 19 Emmys doesn't really need a lot more info than that. You must watch this

This review is from: Glee: The Complete First Season (DVD)
Glee is such a great and upbeat show. I am so glad this set was on sale, as I was slightly upset purchasing the Season 1 Volume 1 set (which was only the first half of the first season). I am now happy to have all episodes on DVD - of course any Gleek will love this set, but I think that Glee has mass appeal and I highly recommend the show to anyone that is artistic or a supporter of the fine arts.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST. SHOW. EVER!!!, April 10 2011
By 
This review is from: Glee: Complete Season One (DVD)
Honestly, I am in love with Glee!. It's got so much great comedy, drama, and the performances can be so entertaining! Jane Lynch is absolutely hilarious on the show, and the Madonna episode is just brilliant! I think everyone should try this show. . . it's so addicting, and the music is varied. I love every episode, and there are lots of great bonus features too. :)
