That style of song or music absolutely 213 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 2: would have worked in the twenty tens, early two thousands, 214 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 2: you know, and that sounds so unlike anything that's out 215 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: now pop wise, like that is so far from where 216 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 2: we are. It's almost like innocent, like hmm, you know 217 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:41,959 Speaker 2: what I mean? 218 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it. I get what you're saying. 219 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: That's why I feel about there's like so much nostalgia 220 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: for like the music when we were growing up. I 221 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: don't know. 222 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't know why that song in particular 223 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 2: really sort of like hit me in the face with 224 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 2: it of it's for me, you know, I think it's 225 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 2: easy for us as like early nineties sounded like this, 226 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 2: eighties sounded like this, late nineties sounded like this, early 227 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 2: two thousand sounded like this. Yeah, and then it starts 228 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 2: to get a little murky for me, like I don't 229 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 2: really know. At twenty ten's what the sound is. Later 230 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty year it I don't know. However, this 231 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 2: made me realize, like, oh, okay, I do hear the difference. 232 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 2: There is a distinction of where we are now. That's all. 233 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 2: That's just my stupid breath. 234 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: Fair enough, no, fair enough, you're the music guy, I 235 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: defer to you.

I'm hoping you know that you were left 312 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 2: with hope and this show so often couples come back together. 313 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 1: So I don't know how many episodes left, Kevin. 314 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 2: I know, but as you said a billion times, we 315 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 2: don't know what happens in season six, and. 316 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: So you're right, there's there's always a chance. 317 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 2: I'm just a little hopeful because they're so good and 318 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,719 Speaker 2: I love their maturity. It was it was very reminiscent 319 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 2: of some of the conversations Santana and Brittany had during 320 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 2: their breakup. 321 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 1: Even like when Sam's like I cheated on you and 322 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: I did the thing and Mercy these response is so mature. 323 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: It's like, wow, yeah, exactly, she could have blown up 324 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: and gotten mad and done the whole thing. And you know. 325 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: But but again, I think the thing we love about 326 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 1: them is that they it is it is nice to 327 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: see a mature, healthy relationship. 328 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 2: There's growth there and you're seeing grow together. They're so different, 329 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 2: and I feel like the writers have done such a 330 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 2: good job of showing both of them growing in their 331 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,959 Speaker 2: own ways together in New York. Think about how different 332 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 2: they seem now and grown up than they did at McKinley, 333 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 2: which wasn't that long ago, but it's still they still 334 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 2: it feels natural and organic because it still feels like 335 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 2: the Mercedes and Sam that we love. 336 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: No totally. 337 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 2: So they decided to break up and Mercedes is going 338 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 2: to go on tour and maybe they're going to make it. 339 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 2: And then we find out Sam is on the side 340 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 2: of a bus. 341 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: He mad it and then he leaves.

He's like, see you later, 344 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: which again then led to say I'm walking down the 345 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 1: halls of Kinlean moving home. And one of the best 346 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: parts the bus about shooting the bus is it the 347 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: funniest thing ever? Did you guys take a ton of 348 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: pictures in front of it? 349 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 2: I did. There's pictures of me and Leah like mounting 350 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 2: the bush. 351 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: I think it was huge right, like photo is really big. 352 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 2: It's it is the whole side of a bus. It 353 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 2: was a real bus and it was fully wrapped in 354 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 2: a naked cord. 355 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's the budget for the episode. 356 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 2: It was unreal, it felt very famous. It was cool. 357 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: I was just thinking about Cord in that episode because 358 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: you know, he used to get so worried about having 359 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: to take your shirt off. I know I in that 360 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: that shot he had to take a shirt off a bunch. 361 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: But go Sam, go Courd, Go Mercedes, And that leads 362 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: us to literally the end of the episode. So that's 363 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: the end of season five. I'm just kidding. Blaine and 364 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: Kurt are also in this episode, and they still have 365 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 1: this storyline that's going on with Shirley McLain who's an 366 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: American treasurer and she is preparing for his showcase with June, 367 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: and Blaine is still pushing for for Kurt to be 368 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 1: able to be in the showcase. He has lied to 369 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: Kurt in past episodes about it, hoping that he says 370 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: to Kurt, hoping that he would it would have just 371 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 1: come true, right, that she would have changed her mind 372 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: and she would have pled in the show. Yeah, exactly. 373 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: But Kirk get's very upset and now he can't trust him. Now. 374 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: This one I felt was a little bit of a departure, 375 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: like from the Sam Sades of all, because. 376 00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 2: This felt very high school. 377 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like said, yeah, because Blaine is actually being 378 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: honest and saying like, I just didn't want to hurt 379 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,719 Speaker 1: your feelings. I didn't know how to really go about this, 380 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: and Kirk Kirk could have not thrown a bag and 381 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: done the whole thing and said oh, okay, you know it. 382 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: Just it was like the whole thing felt a little 383 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: high school. 384 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 2: Yes, totally. The point that I like that Kurt said 385 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 2: was like we've had like numerous lengthy conversations about this. 386 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 2: To be fair, I get you know, yeah, I get that, 387 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 2: like I can figure it out, It'll be fine. Yeah, 388 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 2: I get to have extensive conversations and plan that is dark. 389 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 2: But yeah. The reaction was like, this is not Sam Sades, No, 390 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 2: not at all. And Shearlan McClain is not having it, 391 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 2: and she's like you can like if you cross me, 392 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 2: you're going to be driftwood. 393 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: Which is kind of scary because like in our industry, 394 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: I do feel like you don't want to burn bridges. 395 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: You don't want anybody to blackmail you out of this 396 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: business where you'll never work again. Like that is something 397 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 1: that has happened in the past, has and will continue 398 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: to happen in our industry. And so I heard that 399 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, like it struck like a 400 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: weird chord for me. I was like, oh shit, he's 401 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: in with the wrong person. 402 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 2: Now, do you know what I mean? Yeah, she's old school, 403 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 2: but good for Blaine. 404 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I was hoping that this is how it 405 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: would turn out, and that he would kind of go 406 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,959 Speaker 1: rogue and invite Kurt to perform. So you guys were 407 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: all at this performance showcase. Where was this shot? 408 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 2: It was in the dance tune. 409 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh okay, you were on set, okay, yeah. 410 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 2: Fully, And that was the first time I saw Sherley 411 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 2: McLean and the number she comes and sits on my 412 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 2: lap and she would like sit on my lap and 413 00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 2: we would talk and she was great. Remember, she was 414 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 2: so nice and like happy to be there and was 415 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 2: just working her butt off and. 416 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:14,479 Speaker 1: I mean a true professional. Yeah, she's been there, you know. 417 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 2: It also seemed like it was fun for her to 418 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,239 Speaker 2: get like when is she going to get to do 419 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 2: musical numbers like this. 420 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. 421 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, musicals in general are few and far between, and 422 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 2: so for her to like be able to do that 423 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 2: in a few episodes, and they gave her numerous songs 424 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 2: as I should. 425 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: No, I mean, come on, you have Schley McLain. Let's like, 426 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: let's do it, you know. 427 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 2: So Blaine performs with June and then ends up, like 428 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 2: you said, calling Kurt over to do his last song, 429 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 2: his encore, which ends up being mostly Kurt and they 430 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 2: do American Boy, which there's a small part of me 431 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 2: I was a little jealous because Zach Woodley and I 432 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: had been trying to get that song onto the show 433 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 2: for years. Really it was Zach's idea, and Zach wanted 434 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 2: me to do it, and he had been pitching Ryan 435 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 2: for years and it never happened. And then it happened. 436 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I have a compassion to make I love 437 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: that song. What there's something about it? Maybe it was 438 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: like it was really popular during the time of the show. 439 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 1: I was living over I wasn't living in Hollywood yet, 440 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: like where I was living at the time during season five, 441 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: but back like earlier, no, no, no, pre that like 442 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: like Lebra oh yeah, like Pilot, serious season one time 443 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: maybe season two that it's like sense memory for me 444 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: and I do not like that song at all, and 445 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: I could not listen to it. I do not like 446 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,640 Speaker 1: that song, so it was hard for me. It's hard 447 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: for me to be a judge with this number because 448 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: it's one of my least favorite songs. 449 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 2: Ever, it's one of my favorites. 450 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: Wow we found something. We diver said, Oh yeah, that's 451 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 1: so funny. But anyway, more importantly, June ends up saying 452 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: that you know, coming around, and she dances in the 453 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: number and everybody joins in and she says that the 454 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 1: people love them together and it's all good, and I 455 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: I appreciate the Blain storyline of it all, where he 456 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: stands up for himself and he stands up for her 457 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 1: and he stands up for what he believes in. The 458 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: payoff wasn't as good for me like that. She just 459 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 1: was kind of like, oh, it's fine, like after the 460 00:26:55,840 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: whole thing, Kape, Yeah, it's exactly over multipleisodes and that's 461 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: how she gives in. I wasn't exactly what I was 462 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: hoping for, but like what, that's not really the point. 463 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: It's it's more about Blaine, you know what. I mean 464 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 1: than and Kurt. 465 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 2: So and I will say, like right before this showcase, 466 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:19,679 Speaker 2: Kurt and Blaine had another conversation that also sort of 467 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 2: redeemed the other conversation for me because it was the 468 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 2: mature conversation. Again, it was like, these kids are really 469 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,360 Speaker 2: growing up, even if they don't react right in the beginning, 470 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 2: they come around and like saw the light and supported Blaine, 471 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 2: which then makes Blaine choose Kurt to come up and 472 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 2: sing with him, which then makes June see how great 473 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 2: they are together because they are like it was. It 474 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 2: was nice and agreed, and I thought they did a 475 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 2: great job performing American Boy. 476 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: They did.

And the thing about her too, I believe 518 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 2: she also improved some things. Oh, I was directing, so 519 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 2: I think she was allowed to, like you have a 520 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 2: master at comedy. Here go for a girl, like that 521 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 2: moment where she's underneath the table and then to the 522 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 2: left and Britney's there just like admiring her. It's so good, 523 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 2: so good, And that whole little bit at the end 524 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 2: I think was them just improving when she's like, I 525 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 2: also have a cat in my pants. 526 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: It's so good.

And if you're going to 536 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 2: go and blow up your whole Broadway career, like make 537 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 2: sure it's worth it and make sure it represents you. 538 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 2: And when she was running, when we sat down to 539 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 2: do I love filming these scenes. By the way, I 540 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 2: bat when we did sort of the table reads, actually 541 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 2: reading from the scripts slain and hashtag hashtag, hashtag hashtag, 542 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 2: it was so much fun. And getting to do that 543 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 2: little like rave scene and cut the cameras what is 544 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 2: going on here? So those were all so much fun 545 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 2: to do. 546 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: It's really yeah, it felt like it felt fun. It 547 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: just this episode was all the things aside that I 548 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: have my qualms with it, Like it felt relaxed in 549 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 1: some way. It did, and like everybody felt relaxed in it. 550 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: And I think that was the energy of the New 551 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: York spinoff that I my spin off that I loved 552 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: so much, was like it wasn't that constant pace at 553 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,239 Speaker 1: McKinley that you feel is like at one hundred, Like 554 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: I feel like we were at a cool sixty five 555 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: seventy and like we re rode on that for like 556 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,959 Speaker 1: this whole rest of this season, which I was like, 557 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: all about. 558 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 2: Maybe that's why we only had one point eight million viewers. 559 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 1: People are like, this isn't Glee, this is a different show. Funny, 560 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: but she so she pushes, Rachel pushes back, and then 561 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: she performs for Kristen and she does She's like, I 562 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: don't know how to write it. I don't know how 563 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: to tell you, but I know how. I like what 564 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: it is, but I know what it wanted, what I 565 00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: wanted to feel like. And then she does Glitter in 566 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: the Air by Pink, which one of Pig's best songs, 567 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: I think, and and and she does a beautiful job 568 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 1: at it, like you know, it's a season finale, give 569 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: Rachel her number. Yeah, so I was here for that 570 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: for sure. And then she she decides to rewrite it. 571 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 2: And which I did not think was going to happen. 572 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 2: I obviously did not remember what happened, but I thought 573 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 2: she was going to go up there and like turn 574 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 2: the mike off. 575 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: Oh interesting, you know, okay, okay uh. And then the 576 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: they she rewrites it, and Rachel loves it and she's 577 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: really happy with it and she feels like it's her 578 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 1: and so they submit it to the network and then 579 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 1: we get a call at the end that the network 580 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: loves it and she's going to La to shoot it 581 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: and she's going to do a pilot. And again, I 582 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 1: just even for the two episode cut aside, Like she says, 583 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: I thought Fanny Brice was my role in my dream role, 584 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: but this is my dream And I'm like, but what 585 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: do you mean, Like. 586 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 2: Because you're playing yourself, but what do you. 587 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 1: Mean she just wrote it, And like, you've never spoken 588 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: of LA, you never spoke about being TV. She just 589 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,359 Speaker 1: talked about a star, So to be fair, she could 590 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: be talking about that. 591 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 2: She just wants to be famous. 592 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: It just felt a little unjustified to me that she's like, 593 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 1: this is my dream now she just got it. 594 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, Broadway, Yeah, I don't like this storyline. I don't 595 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,439 Speaker 2: buy this storyline. And also I think having two less 596 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 2: episodes did really impact all of these storylines. 597 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 1: Totally felt very rushed. 598 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 2: Yes, where we're not getting some of the payoff, Like 599 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 2: maybe there would have been more time to have Shirley 600 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 2: McLain have a bad reaction and you could have that 601 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:52,760 Speaker 2: sort of moment and this moment play out a little longer. 602 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 2: So it was that part of this episode was a 603 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:02,399 Speaker 2: little hard to give us. Agreed, but I guess she's 604 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 2: going to La because what happens is then we actually 605 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,240 Speaker 2: have this one moment at the end of the episode 606 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 2: that actually feels like a season finale, and it's POMPEII 607 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,240 Speaker 2: and they're all outside to go see Sam's naked body 608 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 2: on a bus YEP and then Sam says he's gonna 609 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 2: go back to Ohio to be around his people. Mercedes 610 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 2: is going on tour, Rachel's going to LA, right, so 611 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 2: everybody's sort of breaking up again, and it's this. It 612 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 2: is this really nice moment of reflection about Hey, everyone, 613 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 2: remember what this season started off with, like in how 614 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 2: Far We've Come? Yeah, and I think this was a 615 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:52,840 Speaker 2: great song choice. And do you not think so? 616 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,320 Speaker 1: No? I do think it was a good song choice. 617 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: I think the problem with this one. Yeah, I just 618 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 1: had a lot of problems with this episode. I'm sorry, 619 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 1: is that I love this song so much. 620 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 2: Oh you and I were in deep for best deals 621 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,720 Speaker 2: Like this album changed our life. 622 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: It really did it raise me. And I feel very 623 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 1: strongly about the Beth Steele's voice on this, and I 624 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 1: feel very strongly about the original song. Yes, and to 625 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:33,839 Speaker 1: do it, I'm happy they did it. I'm happy the exposure. God, 626 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm happy that it did feel It's a good, feel 627 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 1: good song right for a finale. So yeah, but it 628 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 1: was very hard for me to separate and listen to 629 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 1: this ongly when I was so into this song, so 630 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:52,720 Speaker 1: into this song. 631 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 2: I don't disagree. It's one of the ones that sound 632 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 2: a little kids bop beat Timmy. 633 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's just not the original. It's just not 634 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: the original. 635 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 2: And I, you know, I think, like I don't love 636 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 2: when we just do a straight cover of the song. However, 637 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 2: watching it in context with the story and having Rachel 638 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 2: be the focal point of it, Yeah, and like having 639 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 2: Sam's moment at McKinley, Yeah, like the lyrics of like 640 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 2: how am I going to be an optimist about this? 641 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: Right? 642 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 2: Close your eyes? Like, yeah, it's very nostalgic because her 643 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 2: whole speech going into this also was like reflective of 644 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 2: everything we've been through and how like next season is 645 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 2: going to be so different, and like. 646 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 1: It moves who chapter, All the shots move really nicely. 647 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: There's like it's a big group number, like people are 648 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: following her down the street. I get it. I will 649 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 1: say I also watched this in two halves the episode, 650 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: and that may have disrupted the stream of consciousness. 651 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 2: I don't know. This episode's a little disjointed, so I 652 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 2: don't know if that really matters. 653 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: I just like maybe POMPEII would have hit had a 654 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 1: little bit of a better impact on me, had I 655 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: watched all the way through. But it was just I 656 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: don't know it was I don't know. 657 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 2: If it would have because I like, this sort of 658 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 2: number comes out of nowhere. 659 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: So yeah, I get that too, and. 660 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 2: I'm grateful for it. I do like it because I'm like, ah, 661 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 2: this is a season finale. Yeah yeah, yeah, butting a 662 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 2: button on it and. 663 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: But it felt it was just like dropped it. 664 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 2: Yes, but it was it was what I needed because 665 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 2: the rest of the episode didn't feel like a finale, 666 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 2: and I was like, Okay, we're at least getting this, 667 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,240 Speaker 2: and like this feels good and. 668 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: I guess so I'm not to hate on it.

And Corey passing 703 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 2: away was obviously a gigantic thing that impacted right more 704 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 2: than just us who were on the show, but also 705 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 2: all the people who watch it, and you know they 706 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 2: didn't watch it. It was in the news everywhere, and 707 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 2: this number, to me is mostly about how far Rachel 708 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:00,360 Speaker 2: has come this season. 709 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and. 710 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:09,959 Speaker 2: Therefore how much Leah has gone through this season, and 711 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 2: her looking down the camera felt more like it was 712 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 2: like something for the audience, whether it was Rachel or 713 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,800 Speaker 2: whether it was Leah, but it was like this Glee 714 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:22,399 Speaker 2: fam like. 715 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 1: Okay, well, the Reddit people are in agreeance with you. 716 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 1: It's very similar to what you're saying, like people saying 717 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: like it was a goodbye remembering Corey.
