Can we ever really have too much of a good thing? Is it physically possible for us to get tired of ‘Glee’? The suggestion is pure sacrilege, we know, but before you release the hounds on us, let’s remember that, thus far, only 17 episodes of the primetime hit have actually aired, and yet somehow, the cast have already sung the national anthem during the World Series, released three hit albums, scheduled a sell-out summer concert tour, received international syndication, won a Golden Globe and performed at the frickin’ White House, not to mention the rumors that the series may soon be adapted into a Broadway musical.
After 17 episodes.
While ‘Glee’ is impossible to define and thus impossible to compare to any other series, in terms of cultural impact, programs such as ‘Seinfeld’ and ‘The Simpsons’ immediately spring to mind. And, to put things in perspective, ‘Seinfeld’ wasn’t awarded a Golden Globe until its fifth season (nor an Emmy until its fourth, fact fans), and as far as we’re aware, Homer and Bart Simpson have never been invited to serenade the First Family. All this glory for a little engine with an average viewership of 8 million viewers seems almost impossible to believe.
