Line 186:
* [[Cerebus Syndrome]]: Starting with the second half of Season 1.
* [[Character Shilling]]:
** Increasingly, the show treats Will and Finn this way — particularly, other characters stand around gushing about how talented, good-hearted, and attractive they both are. The latter outing Santana in "Mash Off"
** One of the complaints about the first half of the Season 2 was that this went on a lot with [[Author Avatar|Kurt Hummel]] in spite of sometimes [[Kick the Dog|treating his friends]] [[Jerkass|rather cruelly]]. This culminated in "Furt" which was a whole episode of [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Kurt-shilling]]. This was the episode where his dad and Finn's mom got married, and yet ''everything'' was about Kurt. Finn's best man speech and even the parents' wedding vows were all about Kurt
** Other characters constantly talk up Blaine as a talented, attractive dreamboat, especially in Season 3.
** While she is exceptionally talented, [[Informed Ability|you'd think Lea Michele was the only talented member of the cast]] the way other characters line up to [[Character Shilling|talk, sometimes to thin air, about how wonderful and important Rachel is]], even if her success comes at their expense. The episode that showed this best was "Props", where Tina, [[Demoted to Extra|a character many fans feel has been getting pushed to the sidelines]], becomes frustrated that Rachel is once again singing lead while she remains stuck in the background. But after experiencing a vision in which all of the glee club members have switched roles, she explains to Rachel both the dream and her subconscious telling her that her part... is to help Rachel get whatever she wants, because by helping her, she helps the glee club. By the end of the season, Rachel is admitted into NYADA despite failing her audition and leaving Carmen Tibideaux annoyed enough by her repeated messages to say she does not deserve any special treatment, becoming a [[Karma Houdini]] in the process.
