The Wonderful World of Glee -- REVISED!

As any other Glee fanatic would know, the season premiere for the spring just aired on Tuesday, April 13, 2009, at 9:28 pm...not to be exact or anything.

SO--Mrs. Sander is requiring us to create a blog over...well basically anything. So here it goes...

Subject: Glee clubs--in real life and on television.

Guiding Question: How much does being in a glee club or show choir negatively or positively affect one's life as is portrayed in the television show? How accurate is the TV portrayal of life for glee club/"uncool" kids in high school? Is society coming full circle, shifting more power to the artists and musicians?

Rationale: Glee's tagline reads, "A biting comedy for the underdog in all of us." The best part about this TV show is that it truly portrays what its tagline states. The choir/glee/band kids never seem to get the recognition they deserve for their talent. Glee is all about glorifying those kids who get picked on and pushed around in high school and how it affects them later on in life. I am curious as to how these actions actually play out in high school according to cliques. I am aiming to come up with a conclusion that explains how glee kids are no different from any other kid involved in extracurriculars. I mainly want to show how these applications play out in the real world.

And so my journey to the center of the choir clique begins!
