Glee [TV3 Pace, No US Spoilers!]

Basq · 07-12-2009 1:41pm #1

Just in case you missed the 7 advertisements on every TV3 ad-break, the pilot episode for 'Glee' will be shown this Saturday night after The X Factor at 9.30pm.

This is somewhere to discuss the show at Irish pace.. so no spoilers from fans watching as US pace (this means you Richard!).

Personally, the pilot was fun and harmless fluff - but it has really grew on me more since the pilot.

The preview episode is on this Saturday

It was advertisied loads during X factor breaks last weekend

Dman001 · 07-12-2009 3:18pm

Ill give this a chance seeing as it's quite big in America. Althought I cant help but feel it will be a TV version of High School Musical.

It's averaging 7 million viewers an episode in the US... and is always in the top 5 shows watched in their timeslot.

They've good reasons to promote it... but even I will admit it's overkill!

Diabhal Beag · 07-12-2009 5:37pm

I will it. Looks good in the ads

Dman001 · 07-12-2009 6:13pm

In fairness, TV3 dont import many good shows (with the exception of Chuck) so I can understand why they are heavily advertising it

Jane Lynch rules...

Ginny · 12-12-2009 10:03pm

Actually just checked IMDB I always thought it was Lindsay as Dr. Reed's mother in Criminal minds, t'was Jane Lynch too...:D

Also Starring LeVar Burton · 12-12-2009 10:32pm

Anyone know if it's gonna be paired with American Idol in January? Keeping it on a Saturday night would be a good idea.

Min · 12-12-2009 10:53pm

I really enjoyed it.

Richard Dower · 13-12-2009 7:18am

Did they show the extended pilot or the edited one?

It was a 3rd version of the pilot. There was more in it than the edited version they originally showed in the states, but it wasn't the full version either.

shane154 · 13-12-2009 12:46pm

i watched the pilot months ago on the web and thought it was very good and decided to wait til its shown on tv3.. but im gonna watch it on the internet now ha! :P

It looks like they are repeating the pilot again on January 6th. Why? Oh why?

Because when they showed it last night, it was merely a special preview. They obviously wanted to put it on in between X Factor and Xtra Factor last night to get people watching and talking about it. Repeating the pilot in January means they can draw in more viewers.

Min · 13-12-2009 2:59pm

Good marketing.

Richard Dower · 13-12-2009 4:05pm

E4 are doing the same tactic, as did Fox originally.

Our man in Havana · 13-12-2009 4:31pm

I actually thought it was quite good. Looking forward to seeing the rest of it.

Dman001 · 13-12-2009 6:11pm

Yes I rather enjoyed it too. I really liked their version of Dont Stop Believing.

KatCookie · 15-12-2009 7:35pm

Its repeating? excellent, i missed it, and it isnt up on tv3s website..

beanyb · 15-12-2009 8:34pm

Poochie05 · 06-01-2010 11:07am

youngblood · 06-01-2010 9:01pm

Well no need for anyone to post US spoilers here-
TV3 did just that
and showed whats happenin for the next 10 episodes including songs!!!!

I'd be ragin if I was watchin it here!

Richard Dower · 06-01-2010 9:04pm

They did what????....a clip show?

Dman001 · 06-01-2010 9:22pm

They did a preview of what is coming up in the series when the credits came up. I thought it was standard with the preview/pilot episode but I see E4 didnt do it.

Just as well I missed it so, I've had the links to them, but haven't been able to watch more than the first one again. I have the songs, but not which episode they appear in.

I'd have been raging as well!

EDINBRO · 07-01-2010 6:09am

Good show! Im up to date so can tell ye... keep watching!

Penn · 07-01-2010 9:26am

Saw the first 3 episodes. Only started watching it because Jane Lynch is in it (love her)

Alright so far. Wouldn't be something I'd normally watch but I'll stick with it for another while I think

Love2love · 07-01-2010 11:17am

When is TV3 airing the next episode?

iseegirls · 07-01-2010 1:54pm

next episode on 3e on Friday night, and then on TV3 next Wednesday at 8.

Mr Velo · 07-01-2010 3:10pm

Starting proper on E4 next Monday night (11th Jan) for those that dont want to watch on TV3 for whatever reason.

Kelda09 · 07-01-2010 10:40pm

Hi, Just wondering if you can watch Glee online as both Wednesday nights on TV3 and Monday nights on E4 dont suit me too watch but really want to see it. Preferably full episodes, not just 10 min clips at a time. TV3's catch up service doesnt seem to have it for some reason.

Our man in Havana · 07-01-2010 10:46pm

Try 4OD.

3e is showing it also Friday at 9pm starting tonight

WENTY07 · 08-01-2010 11:53pm

3E showed episode 2 this evening so to ensure they are ahead of E4 with EPS 1 and 2 airing there on Monday. The new ep on 3E each Friday will be repeated following Wednesday on TV3.
