Even after all these years, I still feel this should've been Glee's ending, this just gives me a feeling of achievement and happiness for New Directions, they finally proved everyone wrong and they did it together, as a family. Either this or the graduation episode should've been the series finale and then an epilogue where they show how everyone is doing after high school and college, unfortunately they kept going and then Cory died. This is probably one of my top 3 Glee songs

@rude893

8y↑2

exactly how I feel.

@danishawilson7746

ruthie yeah

@blond1278

I feel like if they hadn’t prolonged the show, then Cory would’ve died sooner but I agree :(

@anothernerdontheinternet

5y↑5

I disagree, i feel like there is nothing conclusive about the s3 finale, it is a great and happy momment in wich the glee club is finally respected after they win nationals (wich is big as well) and most of the original cast graduates, but it provides no closure to any of the characters individually after that, the actual series finale does bring closure for at least most characters individually.

@WafuBro20

This has been the finale song for me literally. My schedule since I entered highschool was changed that's why I find it hard to catch every episode of season 4 and 5 so I kinda not too updated about Glee now. The former New Directions will always be the best for me specially that there's still Finn and this song was perfect if you're trying to reminisce all the good things about the old days.

@natalieortega328

@poopypants34

Honestly I think them taking away the new characters from 4/5 in season 6 messed it up. The whole season 6 was so different and I hate it when shows do that!!

@Marysajama

6y↑2

Agree with you,I couldn't even watch season 6 after what they did,they have so much potencial and just ruining it

@RK-ep8qy

5y↑2

abba_dabba seasons 4 and 5 should only have been 20% new kids, and their storylines should only have existed as side plots to the main characters, it would have given time to flesh out Rachel, Santana, Mercedes, Quinn's, Finn's etc storylines instead of it all being a jumbled mess.

@chloesoane8808

4y↑5

abba_dabba I also think the reason season 5 seems rushed at times and a little strange is because that’s exactly what it was. It had to be re-written completely after Cory’s death and that made the writing bad in places :(
