Critic's Notebook: The 'Glee' machine




7 comments:

  1. The first main point I saw was that glee was played live in Las Vegas. The stars from the fox show were kicked off the tour. They say that the show glee overall gives a whole new meaning to the word family. This thing called the glee machine generated a product placement for Chevy and many other products. The show sold out when in Las Vegas. I say the biggest main point that I listed was the way that the show was relating to the people who watch the show. I thought that it is a big way to relate with the viewers and make people wan to watch the show more.

    I think that glee could be a good show for people to watch and get more people to watch it, but its kind of like High school Musical and that could hurt them in the long run. I still think that the show could pull off big numbers still. What they might do next is take touring to a whole other level as in going over seas or even more places around the U>S. I think that there’s room to grow but it’s not a big room to grow. I think that it could be one of the top show s in the country but that depends on how they carry the show over the next few years or even months.

  2. This article talks about the growing franchise of the show Glee. It talks about how the concert the show had was such a hit and that they would continue to another concert. It's more of marketing now than actual music. The Glee cast are now in commercials because of their popularity. The show eventually hit Vegas, which is huge! Most important is that the show is not overexposed because of the number of views and fans who still follow the show with much support.

    I think that although the show is growing rapidly, it will stop sooner or later. I dont think that it will lose viewers, but that it wont grow too much more. When a show is at the top, it usually stays there for a little while especially a show like this-about singing. I think the next level for the show could be more advertising and their songs on the radio. Honestly i don't know too much about this, but my guess is that in a few months the show will lose popularity.

  3. The show Glee has been on the rise as it is aired on FOX weekly. The cast is making an even bigger jump and will be performing Glee LIVE! This will be their second tour in the last year or so. There were about 7,500 in attendance at a sold out show located at Mandalay Bay Events Center. It has been said that everywhere they go the take the stage and the crowd ruptures with excitement. I think its very interesting how a T.V. show goes on a LIVE tour and it makes the organization that much more popular.
    I feel that the Glee Franchise is taking big steps. I haven’t heard of a television show that takes their cast and goes on tours. I know that the Glee series is like High School Musical where they sing multiple songs during the show. There are always ways to create new music and new songs so they have a lot ahead of them in the future. I guess their future holds new songs, more tours and additional fans.

  4. Glee is on the rise, as a show. Its pretty cool that they have gone live from their show. How they have gone on tour makes their success even broader. They've sold out a few arenas already. They have such a cult following, the fans go crazy.
    Glee is moving in a new direction, I only know a few TV shows such as south park, and some movies that have been on tour. Also High School Musical, Spiderman, etc. I think Glee is blowing up. Their future looks bright.

  6. This article is about Glee's popularity. Glee just started its second live tour in Las Vegas. There was a huge crowd in attendance. The author of the article even said the audience was like an audience for the Beatles. Thats insane!

    Glee is very popular right now and this live tour will be very successful. I'm not sure how much longer this whole Glee thing will last though. I believe the show will stay on for about 3-5 more seasons. I think that the live show will still remain popular after the show ends. The live show might even become a broadway hit.

  7. the biggest point in this article is that Glee is going on tour for a second time. they began their tour in las vegas this past weekend. companies such as chevy have found many marketing opportunities associting itself with the show. the cast of the touring show is not quite the same as the tv show cast. the cast of glee has hit it big and are now in a few commercials to use their popularity to market products of other companies.

    the show has hit its peak in my opinion. last year the show was a huge success and ti was very popular. this year it doesnt seem as big and people dont talk about it as much anymore. i dont think that it is gaining to many more viewers and i think people will stop watching it. i dont know to much about the show but it seems to me that it is loosing the hype around it.
