Glee encore2/19/2023 ![]() The sound field is extremely front heavy, even during the musical numbers. Wow! If there was ever a place not to mess up with a Blu-ray for 'Glee' it would be in the audio, but sadly this soundtrack fails to reproduce the show's happy-go-lucky, musical ambience. That's why the following part of the review has also been pulled over from my previous review of season one. There's nothing really that distinguishes this release from season one when it comes to sound. ![]() The audio in season one was never all that amazing, and was very front-heavy. It looks great on TV and so in my enthusiasm I thought it would look even better on Blu-ray, like it should. Overall I expected more from this transfer. Black levels are also nicely done, giving much of the darker scenes a nice balance of black without gobbling up faces and characters. Skintones are nicely rendered though, giving everyone a natural look. Heavy grain takes over, and not in a good way, frequently. Aliasing was also detected on clothing with fine lines. Bright lights and skies harbor most of it. I did detect banding over the majority of episodes. Detail seems soft, and colors, overall, just less lively and vibrant. Whites seems out of control during some of the stage scenes, but I'm chalking that up to hard spotlights being shown on the characters. It looks the same as it did the first time I saw it on Blu-ray.Ī lot of scenes look flat and lifeless. They haven't gone through and remastered the show. Part of this video review will reuse portions from my previous review of season one. The songs are divided up under the episode name. You can also play individual numbers by selecting Songs. The disc allows you to either Play All of the songs in order, or you can change it up and hit Shuffle to see what songs randomly pop up. ![]() 'Glee: Encore' comes to Blu-ray on a 25GB Blu-ray Disc. So, if you want a never-ending loop of 'Glee' songs playing in the background as you do whatever it is you do around the house, then this is the disc for you. One Less Bell to Answer/A House Is Not A HomeĪny Way You Want It / Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' In case you had forgotten what songs 'Glee' gave us in the first season, here's the complete playlist of 'Glee: Encore'. In order to satiate America's appetite for spunky teens performing love ballads, Fox has quickly thrown together 'Glee: Encore.'įans are likely to already own the first season, and people new to 'Glee' will want to own the first season rather than this redundant release. 'Glee' has become a TV sensation, mainly because of its flashy musical numbers. To recap, all your favorite Gleeks are back, but this time it's all music all the time. ![]() Granted, now all the musical segments are on one easy-to-handle disc, but this is seriously the most superfluous Blu-ray release I've seen it quite a while. The reason why I don't get this release is that the release of 'Glee: The Complete First Season' already had a Jukebox special feature on it that allowed you to skip to any musical segment in the season. It contains all the songs and none of the pseudo-drama that fills up the show. 'Glee: Encore' is essentially a "Best Of" hit list from 'Glee'. Revolving around the singing association between the assortment of twelve characters, the multiple interweaving storylines create outlandish occasions for the talented actors to perform songs from a wide pop and R'n'B repertoire.This is going to be a short review, because I simply do not understand this release. Set in the fictitious William McKilney High School in Lima Ohio, the show centres on the adventures, rivalries and romances springing around the institute's 'New Directions' Glee club. This DVD only features music performances from the show.ĭianna Agron, Chris Colfer, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Heather Morris, Matthew Morrison, Amber Riley, Naya Rivera, Mark Salling, Harry Shum Jr., Dijon Talton, Jenna Ushkowitz
