Last night's second part of the celebratory 100th episode, titled "New Directions", written and directed by co-creator Brad Falchuk, delivered a recognizable vibe and welcome feeling of the first season of the show - as is all too apt considering the series is transitioning before our very eyes and ears to a predominantly New York City-set storyline. McKinley Goodbyes!
Party All The Time For all of GLEE's run thus far, lo, 101 episodes in, the series has held as its heart in the halls of McKinley High in Lima, OH. Whether they are tread by Rachel (Lea Michele), Finn (Cory Monteith), Kurt (Chris Colfer), Artie (Kevin McHale), Santana (Naya Rivera), Mercedes (Amber Riley), Tina (Jenna Ushkowitz), Sam (Chord Overstreet), Puck (Mark Salling), Quinn (Dianna Agron), Brittany (Heather Morris), Blaine (Darren Criss), or, more recently, Marley (Melissa Benoist), Jake (Jacob Artist), Ryder (Blake Jenner), Kitty (Becca Tobin), Unique (Alex Newell) and the rest of the various New Directions members over the years, the halls of McKinley High have played an essential umpteenth role as a outright cast member in and of themselves - and, some could even argue, so, now, does NYC - and the end is near. Actually, the end has come.
