Glee On The Rocks Episodes

Someone on the Internet once called this episode a "return to form" for Glee. We spend an hour refuting that statement. Today we're talking S1E17, "Bad Reputation." Someone's published a list ranking the Glee Club and we take a long detour into Brittany's characterization (or lack thereof). Also, "Run Joey Run" happens. So there's that. This episode rates a whopping one and a half on the Kevin Quotient. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/glee-on-the-rocks-podcast/support

Pull a stool up the bar, get into your pjs, settle into that hour-long commute...wherever you feel most at home, it's time for Glee. (Did you see what we did there?) On today's episode we're discussing S1E16, "Home." April Rhodes is back to help out the Glee club, Sue goes after Mercedes, and Quinn shows some compassion. But most importantly we cover the most pressing issue of the entire show: just who is Carole Hudson? This episode rates half a Kevin...just for the cake costume. The cake costum...

We're tough, we're ambitious, and we know exactly what we want...more Blaine! Wait...we're still half a season away. Anyway. This episode is all about our first tribute episode, S1E15, "The Power of Madonna." We cover Quinn's mini-feminist story arc, how Sue Sylvester would have made an amazing Hedwig, and who would have survived an escape room. Also, we get a bunch more songs this time. Yay. This episode rates a combined 1 Kevin. We took the average of the Quantity of Kevin vs. the Quality of K...

After a four-month hiatus Glee returns with an all new episode! Well, four months back in 2010. For us it's only been a week. Today's episode is all about S1E14, "Hell-O." We're chatting about Fanon Finn Hudson v. Canon Finn Hudson, how Jesse St. James is sort of perfect for Rachel, and how Rachel is actually the Jesse St. James of McKinley. Oh, and like true Millennials we argue about pineapple on pizzas. This episode is rated a measley one quarter Kevin. Content note: Please be aware that in t...

Sectionals has finally arrived! The moment you've all been waiting for...or not? Today we're talking S1E13, "Sectionals" and we'll find out whether or not the Glee Club triumphs over all adversity imaginable to take the trophy. (Spoilers: they do.) We also discuss the McKinley High School Choir Room Zone of Ability and the different second and third rate mutant powers of the Glee Club kids. We forgot to rate this episode on the Kevin Scale...which probably says enough. Also, primaries are coming...

It's another double feature episode. We're covering both S1E11, "Hairography" and S1E12, "Mattress." Since nothing really happens in "Hairography," and a whole lot more goes down in "Mattress," we thought we'd combine them. 2 for 1 style. Today we ask ourselves if Kurt and Rachel are ever really friends, realize we have more feelings about Terri Schuester than we realized, and briefly touch on the terror of Teenage Dream (Acoustic Version). And next week we finally arrive at Sectionals. This epi...

Today, the untold story of Suzy Pepper, Hot Wing Eating Champion of Lima, Ohio. Just kidding. We're talking S1E10, "Ballad" and answering the one burning question we all have: just what was Matt Rutherford doing all week? We also devolve into a Very Important Discussion concerning a Glee / Food Network crossover event. This episode rates 1/4 Kevin (and we've finally figured out just what our own rating system even means). --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/glee-on-the-rocks-podcast/su...

Every episode has been leading up to this moment...an Artie-centric episode! Well, mostly. It counts. Today we're talking S1E9, "Wheels," as Artie takes the spotlight. We've also got feelings about Kurt and Burt, Tina's stutter, and Sue's backstory. And Glee gets its first kudos from us. First times all around. This episode rates 3 whole Kevins (a podcast high!) --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/glee-on-the-rocks-podcast/support

It's a double dose of Glee today on Glee on the Rocks. In our first double-feature episode, we're talking both S1E7, "Throwdown" and S1E8, "Mash-Up." We're discussing the ethics of Mr. Schue handing out fails and felonies to his students, the merits of surprise vs. pre-planned lesbianism, and proving just how cool we were in high school. This episode rates half of a Kevin (that's 1/4 Kevin for each episode...math!) --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/glee-on-the-rocks-podcast/support

Glee meets Breaking Bad in the lamest crossover event of the season. We're talking S1E6, "Vitamin D," featuring the first appearance of the Glee mashup. We also discuss the insane possibilities of a Glee reboot no one wants, and on behalf of the fandom, we demand our share of Ryan Murphy’s 300-million-dollar Netflix deal. Also, register to vote. This episode rates 2 Kevins (a season high!) --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/glee-on-the-rocks-podcast/support

Adults act inappropriately, Kristin Chenoweth is underutilized, Mav and Emily get distracted by The X-Files, and Bad Guy Finn Hudson makes an appearance. Tonight we talk about S1E5, "The Rhodes Not Taken," guest starring Kristin Chenoweth. The moral of this episode? Your dreams are bigger than a dude. (Also, just what was Isabelle Wright talking about?) This episode rates half a Kevin. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/glee-on-the-rocks-podcast/support

This is Episode 4: Toxic Masculinity Ruins the Party. Tonight we look back at S1Ep4, "Preggers," and talk climate change, how toxic masculinity will always fuck everything up, how the character of Severus Snape is the hill Mav and Emily will die on, and oh yeah, some Glee happens. This episode ranks only half a Kevin. We recorded this episode at the beginning of December so. We’re sorry for it being posted now. Sickness, work and holidays happened but hey, now you can ring in the end of this Gar...

Just in time to help distract from your relatives, we've got a podcast! Welcome to episode three of Glee on the Rocks: an unofficial Glee podcast. Tonight we're discussing S1Ep3, "Acafellas," where we talk ACS, Glee's depiction of masculinity and their lack of consistent characterization, Victor Garber's new show we're gonna make happen, and, as always, Kevin McHale. Allegedly. Here's what you missed. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/glee-on-the-rocks-podcast/support

Welcome back to Glee on the Rocks: an unofficial Glee podcast. This is Episode 2: Just Some Fake Pregnancy and Some Sadness Today we cover S1Ep2, "Showmance" and talk about the lack of anything in episode 2, how Terri deserves a happy ending at Pier One and Anastasia the Klaine Musical. Also, Emily and Mav both have one strike (Mandy has none). Here's what you missed... --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/glee-on-the-rocks-podcast/support
