Production

The series is produced by

20th Century Fox Television, Ryan Murphy Television and Brad Falchuk Teley-Vision. Series creators Ian Brennan, Brad Falchuk and Ryan Murphy serve as executive producers, alongside Dante Di Loreto.[23] This constitutes a promotion for Brennan, who formerly received a co-executive producer credit.[24] The first and second seasons were written exclusively by Brennan, Falchuk and Murphy. Although Murphy had intended to hire a team of five or six writers in January 2010,[25] this plan was delayed, due to the existing team's reluctance to alter a working formula.[26] Falchuk revealed in May 2011 that further writing staff are being sought to bring "fresh voices" to the series: "We're trying to get a lot of quirky people and interesting people and people that are not what you'd expect."[27] Six new writers were confirmed, and began work on June 20, 2011: Ali Adler (also co-executive producer), Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (also co-producer), Marti Noxon and former first-season guest star Michael Hitchcock (who are serving as consulting producers), and staff writers Matthew Hodgson and Ross Maxwell.[28]

The third season was structured with two "mini-seasons" mimicking the two high school semesters.

The Bee Gees.[35] Filming for the season was originally reported as beginning on August 10, 2011,[36] but it began on August 9.[37] The first episode of the season was directed by Eric Stoltz, and Matthew Morrison made his directing debut on the Christmas episode.[38]

Broadcast began on September 20, 2011, in the US, where Glee airs on Fox in the 8 pm timeslot on Tuesdays.

Sky1, and premiered on September 22, 2011, two days after the US.[41] Both Network Ten and Sky1 later decoupled their broadcasts from the American schedules. Network Ten did so after the sixth episode, "Mash Off", and Sky1 announced after airing the ninth episode, "Extraordinary Merry Christmas", that in 2012 they would air all the remaining episodes in an unbroken weekly run, scheduled so that the final episodes of the season would broadcast "within days" of their initial US premiere.[42] A subsequent change in the US schedule required adding a week's break after the fourteenth episode, "On My Way".[42]

The cast began recording for their musical numbers on the show beginning on August 8, 2011.[43] They also began recording material for a new Glee Christmas album that month.[44]

Cast

Fox credits fifteen main cast members for the season: Morrison as glee club director Will Schuester,

Harry Shum, Jr. and Jenna Ushkowitz as glee club members Quinn Fabray, Kurt Hummel, Blaine Anderson, Artie Abrams, Rachel Berry, Finn Hudson, Brittany Pierce, Mercedes Jones, Santana Lopez, Noah "Puck" Puckerman, Mike Chang and Tina Cohen-Chang respectively.[45] Criss and Shum, Jr. received contractual upgrades, having formerly been recurring cast members.[46] According to journalist Michael Ausiello, one main cast member who is no longer a series regular is Jessalyn Gilsig as Will's ex-wife, Terri Schuester.[47] O'Malley, who plays Kurt's father Burt, was a series regular during the second season, but is listed among the guest cast for this season.[45][48]

Murphy stated that some of the original characters would depart at the end of the season. He explained: "This next season will be their senior year, and then that they will graduate. We didn't want to have a show where they were in high school for eight years. We really wanted to be true to that experience."

San Diego Comic-Con panel, executive producer Brad Falchuk stated that while Michele, Monteith and Colfer will graduate by the end of the third season, "because they're graduating doesn't mean they're leaving the show". Falchuk insisted "it was never our plan or our intention to let them go. ... They are not done with the show after this season."[51]

.

Harmony, a singer who intimidates Rachel with her talent, and returned in the eighth episode in which Harmony led a rival show choir at the Sectionals competition. McGinty appeared starting in the fourth episode as Rory Flanagan, an Irish exchange student who is living with Brittany's family. Larsen debuted in the thirteenth episode as transfer student Joe Hart,[74] and Newell first appeared in the sixteenth episode as Wade Adams, a member of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline.[75][76]

In a July 2011 interview, Murphy noted that when he and Falchuk ask fans what they want to see, meeting the parents of the characters is a major demand. He said that "some of them" would be seen in the future.[77] Several sets of parents were introduced over the course of the season: Mike Chang's parents, Julia Chang and Mike Chang Sr., played by Tamlyn Tomita and Keong Sim respectively; Emma Pillsbury's parents, Rose and Rusty Pillsbury, played by Valerie Mahaffey and Don Most; Sam Evans's parents, Dwight and Mary Evans, played by John Schneider and Tanya Clarke; and Rachel's parents, Hiram and LeRoy Berry, played by Jeff Goldblum and Brian Stokes Mitchell respectively. Rick Pasqualone appeared as Sugar Motta's father, Al Motta. Thomas Calabro appeared as Puck's father.[78] Gloria Estefan played Santana Lopez's mother, Maribel, in the season finale.[79]

Reception

Critical response

Robert Canning of

Huffington Post's Crystal Bell said regarding the season finale: "We did end up with a graduation episode that was heartfelt, comical and, yes, absolutely ridiculous".[83]

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes gives the season a 53% with an average rating of 7.18/10, based on 19 reviews. The site's critics consensus reads, "Impending graduation and a race to the top provides this season some emotional power and stakes, but Glee will strain many viewers' credulity with a flurry of melodramatic developments that feel more cynically calculated than organic to characters who feel increasingly more like soundboards than people."[84]
