Hello :) I'll be doing the review. I went ahead and fixed a few things; really though, you've done fine work on this article! There are a couple things to work on:

• In the Production section, please elaborate on this sentence: "In an interview with various reporters at the 2010 Teen Choice Awards, Murphy revealed that he received a mixtape that was sent from Paul McCartney." How did this affect the production of the episode?

I would assume that it cut down the selection of music chosen for the episode. I think this one was original intended to be a tribute to McCartney. DAP388 16:06, 18 March 2011

 Done Taken care of. Rcej (Robert) - talk 05:52, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

• In the section Musical performances, are we quoting CNN here?: "CNN gave the music numbers a positive review: "I just loved seeing The Warblers get their groove on amidst the jeans and cotton T-shirts. And Kurt was super gracious trying to be supportive of Blaine, in spite of his own feelings. I also totally loved the music [...] and overall this was one of my favorite episodes this season."". -- Rcej (Robert) - talk 08:01, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

I put CNN because the writer's name wasn't stated in the article. It can be removed if you want. :) -- DAP388 15:58, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

 Done All fixed. Rcej (Robert) - talk 05:52, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

• Final thing, and we're about ready :) Plz fill out cite web templates for refs no. 4 and 20. Rcej (Robert) - talk 05:52, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

 Done All done :). DAP388 19:07, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Very good! I'm going to pass the article to GA :) Kudos! And I'm sure we'll be running into each other for future reviews... I'm a major Gleek! Rcej (Robert) - talk 05:20, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

I've been searching, but can't seem to find much production info for this episode, probably because it's kinda overshadowed by the Super Bowl one, but if anyone has anything, feel free to drop something off here! :) Yves (talk) 00:35, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

As far as I can find, it's never been revealed which songs were on the mix-tape Paul McCartney sent Ryan Murphy asking him to consider their use on Glee, but I think we could perhaps work that into production, as this is the first McCartney song they've used? I think it'd make a pretty cute DYK hook if we could get a five-fold expansion this week. Frickative 12:44, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Mike Chang - guest?

Isn't Harry Schum main cast now rather than a guest star?Gymnophoria (talk) 23:13, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

No; he is still a guest star. Yves (talk) 00:01, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
