The Fox series Glee has gone through a lot over the past year or so. Series regular Cory Monteith, who played Finn Hudson, sadly died last July and the series has seen record lows in its ratings over this past season. However, the show still has one final season after its current season and creator Ryan Murphy plans on some changes.
Next season will see the show move away from its New York setting and will also jump in time. Murphy hasn’t revealed where the new setting will be but it certainly won’t take place in New York or Lima, where the show started out. He also hasn’t revealed how long of a jump in time there will be but the current season’s finale will apparently have something big happen that sets things up for the final season.
It would seem that the show was probably going to go in a different direction before the death of Monteith, with Finn eventually taking over the Glee club for Mr. Shuester (Matthew Morrison) and so on. But now with Finn out of the picture it gives the writers room to be a little more creative with how to end the series other than the way they were more than likely going to end it. It’s good to see that the show will see some changes because they have been long overdue.
