This performance of “Seasons of Love” by the cast of Glee gave me goosebumps. It’s a beautiful rendition of the song from the musical Rent, and it’s sung against a simple, black backdrop with a photo of Cory Monteith as Finn Hudson in his football jersey appearing at the end.

“The Quarterback” episode aired on Thursday, October 10, 2013, paying tribute to actor Cory Monteith while saying goodbye to his Glee character, Finn. Fox scored big ratings with the episode, but it would be way too cynical to believe ratings played any part in putting this episode together. This was a group of friends paying tribute to a young, troubled actor.
