Glee Says Goodbye

With the series finale of Glee on last Friday night, Glee has officially come to an end. While the series has seen its ups and its downs, it is still sad to see it be over.

The final episode "Dreams Come True" showed all of our beloved characters of McKinley High in five years time. Rachel is a Tony award winning actress. Sue is running for president. Kurt and Blaine and Santana and Brittney are happily married. Mr. Schue is the principal of McKinley High School for Performing Arts.  Sam took over his place coaching the New Directions, and Mercedes is on tour with Beyonce. Everyone has achieved their dreams and are happy with the direction that life took them.

In the final moments of the episode, everyone came back to dedicate the auditorium to Cory Monteith's character, Finn Hudson. This was one last tribute to the deceased cast mate. In this scene, every past Glee character was back to sing One Republics song "I Lived." This gave viewers sentimental feelings of time gone by and old friends uniting.

It was nice to see that the show got a proper se
nd off. The last few seasons have not been to the standard of Glee's glory days. However, the show has a very strong group of fans who have an emotional connection with the characters. In many ways, seeing each characters success in this episode was like seeing an old friend after years apart. These characters have been on our screens for years, and we have rooted for them sense the beginning, so this was the best ending that Glee could have given us.
