I am a Gleek! I’ve watched every episode of Glee, and I love, love, love it!  My husband bought me one of the Glee soundtracks for Christmas without me even having to tell him I wanted it, which almost never happens! lol   So naturally I was excited to see that the first half of Season One was coming out on DVD. It’s called Glee Season One Volume One: Road to Sectionals, and it’s available on Amazon.com for $27.99 which includes free Super Saver Shipping.

I wasn’t able to get the full DVD for review (sad face), but 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment did send me a screener of Disc Four, which includes the episodes “Mattress” and “Sectionals”, and these special features-

Special Features:

* Full Length Audition Pieces
Rachel – “On My Own”
Mercedes – “Respect”
* Welcome to McKinley!
* Fox Movie Channel Casting Session
* Deconstructing Glee With Ryan Murphy
* Dance Boot Camp

My favorite is the casting session feature, where we learn, among other things, that Lea Michele (Rachel) came to her audition having just gotten into a car accident on the way to the studio, and that Cory Monteith (Finn) sent in an audition tape of himself drumming on water glasses. And in the Dance Boot Camp feature, the dancing coach reveals that Kevin McHale (Artie) is probably the best dancer of the group, but we won’t see it since his character is in a wheelchair.

If you’re a Gleek like me, pick up Glee Season One Volume One: Road to Sectionals, while you are waiting for the second half of Season One to resume on April 13th!
