Joyful Noise

If the television show Glee was set in a private Christian school...


  • It would be called Joyful Noise, not to be confused with the Dolly Parton masterpiece of the same name.
  • New Directions would be called New Creations.
  • As a Messianic Jew,  Rachel Berry would still be an outcast.
  • Finn drops out of school when he gets a role in an off-off-Broadway production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. He plays Dan.
  • The Madonna episode would become the Mandisa episode.
  • Brittany would accidentally join a cult like Westboro.
  • Tina would gaze longingly at the choir room because her family is Church of Christ and they don't believe in music.
  • Instead of Journey Mr. Schue would pick a new Hillsong piece every week.
  • The kids would aspire to be in a Sight & Sound production instead of Broadway.
  • Quinn's pregnancy scandal would still be scandalous.
  • After graduation Sam would go on to compete on a reality show called American No Other Idols.
  • Rachel would admire Amy Grant instead of Barbra Streisand. 
  • Warblers Blaine and Sebastian form a hip hop duo called Cross Cross.
  • Puck would be edgy because he's become an atheist. That's why he doesn't go by his first name, Noah.
  • Artie would constantly campaign for the club to sing The Days of Elijah but no one would listen to him even though that song is a certified bop.
  • The kids would have to decide between a spring break trip to Broadway or a mission trip.
  • They would decide to combine music and mission and go volunteer in Branson, Missouri.
  • When Mercedes feels like she doesn't get enough solos at school she switches churches so she can take the lead in a new church choir.
  • The club gets in trouble for selling indulgences to local public schoolers to try to raise money for Winter Jam tickets.
  • The kids have a song battle when Santana wants to get a tattoo of her favorite Bible verse (Psalm 25:7) but some of the kids believe that tattoos are sinful.
  • Kurt tries to be edgier by writing a rap called Have It Yahweh
