The cast of the Fox hit show "Glee" films scenes for their finale in Central Park

If there was any doubt about the widespread popularity of Ryan Murphy’s High School sensation “Glee,” it could easily be dispelled with visiting their on-location shoots.  Fans by the hundreds!  Now we are not of that group, personally.  We don’t mind telling y’all that Glee is one of the few reasons we turn on our TV for a network show.  And as much as we enjoy the characters on the show, there was little chance we could skip visiting the set in Gotham during their week of NYC location shoots for their upcoming finale.

Much to our own level of glee, the entire teen-esque portion of the cast was present.  Dianna Agron, Cory Monteith, Harry Shum Jr., Chris Colfer, Naya Rivera, Lea Michele, Chord Overstreet, Mark Salling, Amber Riley, Heather Morris, Kevin McHale – all having a celebrated good time.

Dealing with the hordes of fans on the other hand, was a remarkably controlled situation.

One of the benefits of being on the set of a show with such a big cast is getting to observe and listen to general goings on by cast and crew 1st hand.

For example, Chord Overstreet is one fine beauty!  Total hotness.  His mouth begs sinful thoughts.  We can’t however figure out how something so beautiful made it so far without being violated somehow…

Lea Michele acts as the want-to-be center of attention on the show but on set and in between takes she works just as hard for attention.  Which makes us wonder if she is acting at all…?

Her efforts for ‘look-at’me’ moments go as far as including shows creator Ryan Murphy.  (Not that we are saying that is a bad thing really…)

I.E.: When Murphy was looking for a second cast member to hold an additional set of balloons for the scene, Michele all but sprained an ankle jumping forward and yelling “I’ll do it!”  The balloons went to another – Naya Rivera.

Ashley Fink proclaiming ”I need a candy bar” as the scene ended.  Certainly an eyebrow raiser and a humourous moment, especially since we’d have wrestled her for a Twix at tat moment – had one materialized.

And when Murphy was overheard wondering if Michele would be “offended” by their use of Central Park horses in the scene, well, we weren’t at all surprised about caution over upsetting the shows make-shift diva.

Over all though, it was a fun filled afternoon with Madonna on a continuous playback!  Who could complain any…?
