Finneas O'Connell, who plays Alistair on Glee, recently spoke to TVLine about what's it been like to be in the final season of the musical series. The actor went from being a fan of the series to being a member of the cast, and this evolution has made the finale even more emotional.

"I was really moved by the final episode when I read it for the first time, I hope everyone feels as satisfied as I did," O'Connell said. "As a fan, it just feels really conclusive; it makes a lot of sense and really wraps things up. There's also a little time-jumping, some stuff going on in the future, so you can see where everybody ends up."

He suggested that going into the series finale, he felt like a new kid on the block compared to all the series regulars like Chris Colfer, Lea Michele and more.

"It kind of felt like being someone's date to their high school reunion," he admitted. "There were all these people I'd seen before, and everyone else had talked about, but I was so new. I tried to go up to every person I hadn't met and be like, "Hi, I'm Finneas. You're awesome."

O'Connell's Alistair was introduced two episodes ago as a love interest for Spencer (Marshall Williams) and a new member of the New Directions. It remains to be seen what will become of Alistair and Spencer in the weeks to come but with only three episodes left, it's possible that other, more important characters may take the forefront.

Glee airs Fridays at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Fox.
