Theory: If The Gleeks Went To College, They'd Rule Their Respective Campuses

As the kids of McKinley High School enjoyed their summer vacations, much ado was made of the fact that—come tonight's season premiere—Rachel Berry (Lea Michele), Finn Hudson (Cory Monteith) and Kurt Hummel (Emmy nominee Chris Colfer) will be seniors. Meaning that at the end of the season, they'll graduate. "We didn't want to have a show where they were in high school for eight years," creator Ryan Murphy said in June. "We thought it would be really cool if we were true to the timeline."

Murphy explained that he didn't want to use the television trickery most high school shows employ to solve this problem—make all your main characters magically land at the same college, a la "Beverly Hills, 90210" or "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."
