Willkommen to this week's Gleek of the Week! Alicia from Germany first discovered "Glee" clips on YouTube as a teen in 2011, which sparked her curiosity. Soon she was stealing (borrowing) her dad's iPad to binge-watch the show at night while everyone was sleeping! Alica opens up to Jenna and Kevin about struggling with anxiety, bullying, and coming to terms with her sexuality, and how the show provided a lifeline and safe space during that tough time in her life. Now an English Literature major, she is considering writing her thesis on "Glee" and runs an Instagram account focused on the show's cultural impact!

You joined us as we relived the magic of McKinley High by watching all six seasons of Glee… and now we’re keeping the music going.
This time, we’re stepping outside the choir room and diving into some of the most iconic musicals ever.
Think: Rocky Horror Picture Show. Grease. Hairspray. West Side Story. Moulin Rouge. Wicked. And of course, High School Musical.
But we’re not stopping there - we’ll also celebrate unforgettable musical TV projects like Smash, Nashville, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend… plus those surprise musical episodes of shows you already love, like Grey’s Anatomy, Riverdale, and The Flash.
We’ll be joined by cast members, musicians, and special guests to spill behind-the-scenes stories … plus the writers, creators, and friends who brought these projects to life.
And don’t worry, we’ll still have plenty of Glee surprises along the way.
If you’re a fan of musicals - on the big screen, on TV, or anywhere in between - join us every week as we break down the songs, the stories, and the magic that made us all fall in love with musicals in the first place.
