A review by Gibbs mentioned: "It insults kids to suggest that simply watching Characters Behaving Badly onscreen means they'll take that as permission to do the same themselves. And it's set in high school, meaning it's about a journey not just to college and career but to identity and conviction, the price of popularity, the compromises we must make between what we want and what we need."
As Glee's initial success pulled in a large audience, John Doyle of the Globe & Mail wrote that the early shows "felt fresh, mainly because the motley crew of kids had a kind of square naïveté.
