* LayoutOfASeason: The first four seasons are pretty formulaic thanks to following both an American high school year and the Show Choir TournamentArc. The premiers are the first day back at school where the characters learn about any new obstacles at school, the mid-season finale is the Sectionals performance, sweeps week sees various relationships shaken up and is sometimes paired another tournament performance, and the finale arc sees the culmination of any relationship drama and a final tournament showing. There are some exceptions, though:
** The first season had a thirteen-episode lead-up to Sectionals, the longest front half of any season, so the back half only went to Regionals and ended there.
** The second and third seasons both had Regionals air during Sweeps Week and went to Nationals for the finale, though season three had Nationals as the penultimate episode before the seniors graduated in the finale.
** The fourth season had Will and Emma's wedding ceremony during Sweeps, pushing the Regionals performance all the way to the finale.
** The fifth season starts in the middle of the previous school year and has no mid-season finale or any tournament showing until Nationals two-thirds in. The last seven episodes are a ReTool set in New York, and the finale is actually about Rachel pursuing a career in TV.
** The sixth and final season is only thirteen episodes, and as such follows a similar track as the first season, including a Sectionals performance near the end.

* WardrobeWound: Unpopular students often have slushies thrown WearingItAllWrong: In the episode "Comeback", Rachel recruits Brittany to help her become more popular. Since Brittany is a trendsetter at their high school, Rachel tells her to wear legwarmers the next day and tell everyone who asks that she was inspired by Rachel. Come the next day, Brittany forgot who she was supposed to credit and also [[TheDitz what the legwarmers were for]], so she wore them as a form of bullying.
on her arms instead. Sure enough, throughout the episode all the other girls start wearing legwarmers on their arms and continue to criticize Rachel's fashion choices.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Sue freely admits she's one.one, thinking that her harsh criticisms and rampant bullying will build character, toughen up the students, and keep them safe and healthy.
