When Glee first dropped on free-to-air TV, it’s safe to say it was definitely up there with one of the more… quirky weeknight television offerings.
Sure, we were big fans of the singing, the celebrity guests and basically anything Jane Lynch did or said. But other than the fact that we could never really understand why they were forever rehearsing for “regionals” that never seemed to happen, some of the plot lines were just downright ridiculous and we really must discuss them before we revisit the show on Netflix.
Here are eight of the most truly insane Glee storylines from the early seasons that we strongly suspect were written while drunk, high, or the result of some sort of bizarre dream.
1. When Finn saw Jesus in a toastie but then someone ate it.
So this storyline followed Finn as he became a staunch Christian for an episode because his grilled cheese sandwich looked like it was burned with an image of Jesus Christ. But then someone ate the sandwich and he stopped believing. Yep. That was pretty much what viewers watched for 45 minutes.
There was also a point in the episode where the entire Glee club’s prayers came true after they sang ‘One Of Us’ by Joan Osborne.
Who bloody knows.
2. When Tina knocked her head and woke up as Rachel.
In season three, Tina falls into a fountain while texting and walking which is actually a real fear of ours.
When she wakes up after a nasty knock to the head, she starts to dress and act like Rachel.
