The low reviews on here have nothing to do with the show...be aware July 2, 2010 Johnnycakes (Conroe, TX) 111 out of 113 found this review helpful
First, all of these low reviews are based on the fact that people bought Season 1, Volume 1 DVD's of the show - and are now mad that they are releasing a full season on DVD. Here are a couple of points that you should acknowledge before putting up a low rating:
1. They started selling Volume 1 before the entire season was complete. If you think about that for a minute - how were they going to sell a "whole" season DVD if the shows had not even aired yet? How can you be surprised that you would then be faced with a choice at the end of the season between buying the full season in one set or having to buy Volume 2? Other shows have done the same thing, like Battlestar Galatica. Sure, they do it to make money - to hit the market while the shows are hot - but the fault is really the consumer. If we all stopped buying these 1/2 season DVD's, they would stop selling them. You KNOW they are gonna release a full season DVD at the end of the season. Heck, even if a show is cancelled, they still release it on DVD to make extra money. Be patient.
2. Volume 2 is listed here on Amazon for pre-order and they are giving a discount to anyone who bought Volume 1, if they buy the whole season 1. Don't make it sound like you are being forced to buy the whole season now. You have the option of getting Volume 2, or getting the full season at a discount.
As for the show, I love it. The writing and dialoge is well crafted and the characters, though somewhat stylized, are believable. I will admit, that the last couple shows seemed to lose a step and allowed the music to become more important that the storyline - so, hopefully now that the urgent competition is over, the story lines would be allowed to grow. I did like that they have broadened the focus, allowing the supporting cast to do more solo work and shine more in the singing department. The character of Sue is one of the best characters written on any show today.
Now that the first season is out on Blu-ray, I would encourage those who have heard about the show - who may have caught an episode or two - to start at the beginning and enjoy the Glee experience. We finally have a show that combines comedy, drama, musical features, and good writing. Take the chance.
This show's a true gem! June 11, 2010 C.S. 39 out of 41 found this review helpful
In addition to exploring highly pertinent issues that most teen shows have failed to do so sensitively, Glee has created a completely new genre of television. The musical numbers are inspiring, the dialogue is wittier than in most sitcoms, and the touching moments are captured beautifully. Glee is a truly original creation and deserves all the accolades it has been receiving. Television hasn't seen a group of gifted young actors of this calibre in years, and it is exciting to watch them become rising stars.
This is a perfect collection for ANY lover of musicals!
Do not be deceived by other reviews June 16, 2010 Nathan Christ (Portland, OR, USA) 116 out of 133 found this review helpful
Shame on those who reviewed before FOX released the plans for "Glee: Season 1, Volume 2 - The Road to Regionals." Do not be deceived by the numerous 1 star reviews. Most are just ill-founded opinions about feeling forced into buying the first half of Season 1 again when, in actuality, they can order Volume 2 instead of "Glee: The Complete First Season."
So, in short, if you want to buy the complete Season 1, do it! Glee is an amazing show. If you only want the back 9 episodes, order "Glee: Season 1, Volume 2 - The Road to Regionals." And finally, do not make critical reviews until all information is released. It negatively affects te sales of good products.
Excited Volume 2 will be released June 16, 2010 Tiera Wright 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
I love Glee it was one of my favorite shows of this fall season, it was definitely my favorite new show of the season. And as a big fan I already got the first 13 episodes and I'm excited to see that Volume 2 is a go noted above with a link to it's page. Glee: Season One, Vol. 2 - Road to Regionals
Season 1 Part 2 IS Sold Seperately! June 16, 2010 Duchess (Indiana) 14 out of 16 found this review helpful
PLEASE stop postiving negative (low star) reviews referencing the purchase method. Instead, rate the SHOW instead.
For those that are upset and posting negatively against GLEE due to this being a Full Season DVD Set.. Guess what.. Some of us researched and knew how the release was going to happen at the END of the season and DO want to purchase the Full Set. There IS another purchase option for those that already purchased the first part of Season 1 earlier!!! Check out "Glee: Season One, Vol. 2 - Road to Regionals". See? We can ALL be happy!
Now on to the show itself.. WOW! What an amazing first season! GLEE is so much more than a "one-trick pony". It's full of comedy, drama, issues, musical entertainment.. We have laughed and cried, usually in the same episodes! It has been amazing to watch from start to finish and see the characters emerge and grow. This is one of those shows that I can watch a single episode over and over in a row, as I love to sing along. At the end of the season, we aren't left considering what can they pull out of their hats for next season.. we are left excited over the amazing number of possibilities left to explore.
