'Glee' Season 5 Spoilers: Series Moving Action to New York City & Leaving Ohio Behind? [VIDEO]
Glee may be moving all of its action to New York City starting as early as this season.
Glee has spent much of the last two seasons bouncing back and forth between the kids at McKinley High in Lima, Ohio and the adventures of Rachel (Lea Michele), Kurt (Chris Colfer) and now Santana (Naya Rivera) in New York City. The show may be sticking to one location soon, according to a new report by TVLine.
Glee creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan have been in talks with Fox about what to do with the series going forward. The idea of setting the entire show in New York City until the end of its run has been one of the main concepts discussed.
Murphy previously commented on the difficulty in writing Glee after the passing of Cory Monteith, who played lovable quarterback Finn Hudson on the show. However, he also mentioned having a "good idea" for where the show could go heading into its final season.
"I'm going to tell the studio and the network how after Cory's unfortunate passing we can end the show [in a way] that I think is very satisfactory," he revealed previously. "And kind of in his honor, which I love."
It would be difficult to realistically bring some of the show's main characters to New York City, such as Mr. Schuester (Matthew Morrison) and Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch). However, a poll conducted on the TVLine says that fans favor the New York City plots over the Ohio plots by a vote of about 80 to 20. The series creators still has most of season 5 to decide how they wish to end Glee when it goes off the air in May 2015.
Glee airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. on Fox.
