@MyJosiely - It was MORE than the gay context. lol Darren made an impact his first episode, Teenage Dream was certified GOLD. He's sold over 1.3 million Warbler tracks, fronted the majority of the Warbler Album which did better than even Glee Producers thought was possible, considering it was just him ( a guest star) and it sold 82,000 copies its first week and was #2 on billboard album charts. Just saying, they wanted to tie Darren down without risk of losing him to other projects.
again thanx loads for these videos im such a big glee fan and seeing this is just is a dream i wish i was there for it thanx again and i appreciate wat you are doing for us gleeks :)
@ge1ro2ken3 She was eewwwing because when the writers said we were going to see Mike's parents, and also Tina's, they made a joke about it and said "maybe they're the same" (because Mike's surname is Chang, and Tina's is Cohen-Chang), so since Tina & Mike are dating ... It's kinda disturbing XD
If they think he's so swell and they had loads of "great" material they wanted to write for him, then why would they ask him to return only as some kind of probationary guest star? That really makes no sense. It seems like they just decided to get rid of him all willy-nilly and are now attempting to deflect any potential fan backlash by laying the blame solely on him.
From Zach's response I can infer that Cameron did not win. He said that people are going to like the winner once they are on the screen which leads me to believe that the winner is not someone who is popular with the fans. Base off of this, I think Samuel has a good shot of winning. Even though I don't really like him. Just a thought. But I really hope Cameron still goes on the show b/c his fan-base is so large and there would be a riot if he isn't on the show.
I always thought that "Sam not coming back thing" was kind of shady. They said Harry and Darren earned becoming regulars, but Chord refused to come back when they didn't make him one. Harry and Darren did earn it, but I always thought it was unfair because they actually used Sam as a regular in S2! He was not in the background. He was a bigger part of season 2 than main characters like Mercedes and Tina.
Glee is my life and Im obsessed with the cast, but Harry can't even sing... which takes away from his character, I wonder why we'll be meeting his parents too? Can't wait for season three
@spot4life14 You've got pretty good odds of being right since 3/4 of the finalists are male, but if you're basing it off the "warbler" comment in that one interview, you are mistaken.
@nycitynygirl09 You just got me thinking how funny it is that I, a Seattle girl, filmed this video in San Diego of him talking about the Broadway possibility, which I will also see in NY. In a month. Crazy!
@yosoyconsuela - Seniority? Does that matter, Harry was in most of season 1 and all of 2 and barely got promoted now. They offered him a guest spot with the option that after ten episodes to be promoted to series regular. Either way, he chose not to return and that's his decision. Respect it. Darren Criss has absolutely nothing to do with the producers decisions, so don't drag his name around like he's at fault. Chord left, so move on. He clearly has.
Considering Chord 's no longer with Glee in anyway, if there was something fishy he'd probably speak about it. I personally think he just quit because he wasn't promoted to regular status and didn't want to be a guest star. I feel more sad for Dot, she was crying and they didn't tell her she was coming back?
@majamarie89 THANK-YOU i literally agree with every single word you've said, all they said for Matt was like "he transferred" its pathetic not that I liked Matt all that much but seriously the script writing is sometimes so wobbly. And mercedes as well, for 2 summers she had no one and then suddenly she finds herself in two relationships. Seriously do they really think their being realistic?
i was watching with such a dumb exspression on my face, while listening to Darren's experience. but then.. then he started about Klaine.. and my face went from dumb to OMG!!@^!@&@&@ =D
@majamarie89 - It's awkward. But if they already had a Mercedes story-arc written for the first half of the season than I'd prefer they continue it without Sam than just ditch Mercedes altogether. She's been itching for a storyline for so long that she deserves to get it even if one half of the actors featured in the arc isn't present (although I do admit I'd prefer her arc to not be relationship related at all, but that's a personal preference and I know a lot of people wanted her with a bf)
@yosoyconsuela Totally agree with you. Also Glee won't be the same without him. He was the only reason i watched season 2. RM has shit in his brain for god's sake. WTF Harry did to earn the role as a regular and Chord didn't?
@itsmoky I don't see how Criss has "earned" a promotion any more than Overstreet. Neither are particularly good actors, so they haven't earned anything based on merit. And Overstreet actually has seniority by about five episodes, so it can't be based on that. The only thing I can figure is that it's based on popularity. Many Glee fangirls have an unhealthy obsession with Darren Baggins, er, Criss. I guess Trouty Mouth is too normal human sized to tickle their fancy.
@KaitlynCwriter Chord was not required to do it. Darren was. I don't blame Darren at all, but he was always the beloved one by producers. I wish I know why. What it seems is that RM chose Darren tough mainly because of the whole gay context. That's it.
Love the screams when Darren says he was at a Harry Potter panel :)
6:04 "I'm an big fan of klaine"
- Darren Criss
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Harry's smile when they said he earned his regular title :D
AWW poor harry and darren looked sad when they were talkin bout chord
...can we have a Bike Chanderson bromance next season?
Darren- ships Klaine as much as the rest of us. As does Brad.
Darren is so softly-spoken in this.
2:43 aww Darrens clap (soo adorable)
@MyJosiely - It was MORE than the gay context. lol Darren made an impact his first episode, Teenage Dream was certified GOLD.

I love how Brad says " Yeah, they are not breaking" ...like it's a crazy Idea :D
again thanx loads for these videos im such a big glee fan and seeing this is just is a dream i wish i was there for it thanx again and i appreciate wat you are doing for us gleeks :)
Darren Criss, Daniel Radcliffe, Broadway, Klaine!! season 3. So Exited!!
When Mike said longest relationship in Glee generation, I expected him to say Asian Power afterwards.
@ge1ro2ken3 She was eewwwing because when the writers said we were going to see Mike's parents, and also Tina's, they made a joke about it and said "maybe they're the same" (because Mike's surname is Chang, and Tina's is Cohen-Chang), so since Tina & Mike are dating ... It's kinda disturbing XD

My neighbors are probably highly annoyed with the constant screaming as I watch these videos, but if I put my headphones on I'll probably go deaf! LOL
I love chord so much. I'm very sad he's going but I hope his future plans go well.
I already have tickets to see Darren in broadway :D that's how much I love him lol
KLAINE IS SOLID. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

HE SAID TOTALLY AWESOME!!! made my life

Damn Jenna's tan. Has she been in Bermuda or something since the tour ended?
I'm glad that Mercedes is getting a man but I'll miss Chord. really excited for all the Klaine stuff
you could tell brad was PISSED about chord...hahahaha but i am SO excited about season 3! klaine action, and mercedes get's a boyf!
Glee is my life and Im obsessed with the cast, but Harry can't even sing... which takes away from his character, I wonder why we'll be meeting his parents too? Can't wait for season three
Longest running couple in Glee history!
Nice, Harry LOL
KLAINE KLAINE KLAINE KLAINE AHHH SOO FREAKIN' EXCITEEEDDD!
omg thanks so much for this!!!!
6:58 He said totally awesome. Sorry fangirling :)
awww.... I'm so sad about Chord not returning next season :( I really liked Sam.... I kinda of feel like crying
I kept expecting someone to yell "damn that G.L.E.E" when Darren was talking about broadway and his schedule
Actually hearing Darren say 'Klaine' made me squeal. dfghjsdhgkjsdfg
@spot4life14 You've got pretty good odds of being right since 3/4 of the finalists are male, but if you're basing it off the "warbler" comment in that one interview, you are mistaken.
thanks for part 2! how long till part 3 is finished uploading?
we're gonna meet the parents?
these kids have parents???
so sorry to hear that chord is not coming back. ima cry.
but dot!!! i love dot.
@nycitynygirl09 You just got me thinking how funny it is that I, a Seattle girl, filmed this video in San Diego of him talking about the Broadway possibility, which I will also see in NY. In a month. Crazy!
erm... I'm pretty sure Ian said 'totally awesome' and Darren is RIGHT THERE! oasugnaisubg
i would have so screamed harry freakin potter when he was takin about darren lol

I feel more sad for Dot, she was crying and they didn't tell her she was coming back?
it would be totally rad if mercedes' boyfriend turned out to be matt, back from the abyss! haha.
"Sam isn't coming back"- too bad that was total BS. He's back. Can't wait for my bf Grant to come back at the end of the season and next season!
@majamarie89 THANK-YOU i literally agree with every single word you've said, all they said for Matt was like "he transferred" its pathetic not that I liked Matt all that much but seriously the script writing is sometimes so wobbly.

i was watching with such a dumb exspression on my face, while listening to Darren's experience. but then.. then he started about Klaine.. and my face went from dumb to OMG!!@^!@&@&@ =D
I am confuse. Chord declined but he comes back for sectionals in season 3 what happen
@majamarie89 - It's awkward. But if they already had a Mercedes story-arc written for the first half of the season than I'd prefer they continue it without Sam than just ditch Mercedes altogether.

@firegaze21 REALLY?! thats awesome! im going on the 7th too btw!!!
Brad Falchuk is my friend's uncle. I am so incredibly jealous, and I just thought I'd share with you all. :)
@yosoyconsuela Totally agree with you. Also Glee won't be the same without him. He was the only reason i watched season 2. RM has shit in his brain for god's sake. WTF Harry did to earn the role as a regular and Chord didn't?
where the hell is the rest of the cast?? :(
Ha darren was not a series regular in season 2??? Seriously, wid all those solos and his not yet regular??? Wtf!!!!!
@SilverWings92 really?? Darren?
hehehe Darren said "Klaine" :)
@THEgirlONfiire Hes on broaway!?!
@SilverWings92 it makes me so happy that klaine is solid. :) :) :)
@THEgirlONfiire Me too! January 7th. I'm trying to hit 5 Broadway shows in 3 days while I'm there.
I WANT ARTIE AND TINA!
glee project winners r damine n samuel wit a 7 episode arc n lindsy n alex wit a 2 episode arc
I actually wanted to see sam and mercedes together :(
i dont get it when jenna was saying eww?
okay excuse me, but Brad Falchuck is HOT!
People who ship Klaine harder than you:
Brad Falchuck
Darren Criss
I bet it's Cameron.
i'll say it again .... something seems fishy about Chord's situation ....
why was jenna saying eww??
Can I just take a moment to point out how ironic it is: Harry Potter is being replaced by Harry Freaking Potter.
Why did she go Ew?
@nycitynygirl09 :D ME TOO! I heard it was official and i bought it.... CRAZY FANS ARE AWESOME!
the winner of the glee project is a boy its either samuel or damian yah
@THEgirlONfiire ME TOO!
