Wisely, "Glee" instead opts to supply a little something for everyone, broadening cultural awareness and horizons in the process. While teenagers may be directly targeted and comprise a significant part of the audience, giving them just new renditions of music that finds them on the radio and other avenues would severely limit the series' reach. Before we lament what hasn't made the cut, let us cover and appreciate what has.Īn instrumental part of "Glee"'s widespread appeal has been its varied musical tastes. The problem with that is how many fans will be completely happy with what comprises this seemingly random taste and how many will be bummed to find some of their favorites missing? I'm guessing the latter would outnumber the former. A dual-layered DVD can comfortably hold three hours of content (as many "Glee" discs do), so there must have been a conscious decision to only offer a small taste of the available material. Hardcore Gleeks might even know that Season 1 featured over 120 musical performances (131 by my count of Wikipedia, although there is some leeway), meaning you get about one out of every four First Season songs on this DVD. If you're at all familiar with the show, then you know that 34 songs from a 22-episode run barely skims the surface.
Perhaps the back of the "Glee": Encore case should then read "for Gleeks of all ages who don't need it all and don't want to have to deal with changing discs." The packaging claims this is "for Gleeks of all ages", but any true Gleek already owns The Complete First SeasonĪnd knows that half of the DVD and the entire Blu-ray offer playback of individual songs, along with shuffle and continuous modes. This new disc strings together 34 performances from the hit Fox dramedy's first season for a 77-minute all-musical feature presentation. If you love the song and dance of "Glee", but aren't so crazy about the comedy, drama, and storylines, "Glee": Encore is the DVD for you.
