      This isn't the best Flash Mob I've ever seen, but anything that pays tribute to the greatness that is Glee deserves props.

      Glee is by far the best show on T.V. Can't wait till April!!!

      when will this GO AWAY. first time it was cute. now it just seems stupid.



    5. 5

      Flashmobs were cool the first 150 times. Now they are just boring and unoriginal.

      1. Really sort of terrible flash mob 2. Really sort of terrible remix of Glee songs. 3. People should watch the T-Mobile flash mobs if they want to see some good ones.

      More like a publicly performed commercial than a flash mob, I'm afraid. Still, free entertainment I suppose.

      The term flash mob is generally applied only to gatherings organized via telecommunications, social media, or viral emails. The term is generally NOT applied to events organized by public relations firms or as publicity stunts.
      This was a publicity stunt clearly.

    10. 10

    11. 11

      Call me a Geek….I'm in love with Glee! Italians dress better then us Americans. I've been in the mall doing X-mas shopping and there are some sloppy folks out there fighting for parking spots and the last toy hamster in stock.



    12. 12

      This is already getting on my nerves



    13. 13

      That was put together by a PR firm for glee has a publicity stunt stunt. It was not the best so called flash mob I have ever seen. Did you notice that there were only white people there!



    14. 14

      These are becoming too common and the shock of it all is gone.



    15. 15

      loved the little girl on the persons shoulders singing along. made me smile :)



    16. 16

      it always makes me cry when i see this



    17. 17

      I wish I could see one of these happen in real life!



    18. 18

      *laughing* a flash mob is a bit of planned spontaneity by a group of artists and friends. This was orchestrated by FOX-notice the amazing camera angles? Paid dancers to promote Glee…not that there is anything wrong with that. Just not a flash mob.



    19. 19

      I LOVE GLEE!



    20. 20

      Amazing!!!



    21. 21

      Didn't think the dance moves or the music was very good on this one or maybe I am just getting sick of flash mobs.



    22. 22

      Loves it!!!



    23. 23

      To tom951 are you stupid???? Danggg!!! This is Italy practically everyone there is white. WOW!!! Get your culture check. Please & thank you. If not go back to school. I guess American school ain't doing you well. Come to Canada! We will teach you some culture & diversity.



    24. 24

      OMG I WANT TO BE THERE!
      I LOVVEEEE GLEE!



    25. 25

      I can't imagine why ANYONE would have anything bad to say about this or any of the others…. what is so horrible about people enjoying themselves… smiling… dancing… cheering… ????? Everytime I see one of these I get so over overwhelmed as they expand, that my throat tightens and I cry!! Yes, I'm a geek… but I LOVE Glee!!!! I agree… the little girl singing to Queen just sent me over the edge… lol… LOVE it!!!



    26. 26

      what's bothering me though is that I've spent a lot of time in Roma and can't figure out where they are… does anyone know?? Just curious…..



    27. 27

      This made me HAPPY. Merry Christmas everyone!



    28. 28

      I love Glee
      This was just okay. Too long. Too staged and posed



    29. 29

      Awesomeness!



    30. 30

      Re: katfish – you're absolutely right. they're going to show the first two episodes of glee on christmas and then the whole season starting at january on FOX ( in italy is a satellite channel and you have to pay for it).



    31. 31

      The Glee advert posters were covered in orange for all the songs and then the posters were revealed at the end of the sequence. This proves this event wasn't a spontaneous flash mob - but rather a planned advertisement. Because real flash mobs are by the people - they don't have staged advertising posters in position to try to add to the revenue of a tv network. Further the network itself posted the video.



    32. 32

      flash mob my ass, this was organized, planned and produced by Fox.



    33. 33

      Re: tom951
      Wow,you're such a genius!I'm Italian and there are barely any black people here.
      I love Glee,but this is a promo commercial completely staged.
      Glee hasn't even aired here yet,how would people know these songs are from the show and stuff?Come on!



    34. 34

      not as awesome as the flash mob of the do-re-mi at the train station did anyone see that? It's on youtube it's frickin fantastic!



    35. 35

      I always feel embarrassed for them, it looks so stupid.



    36. 36

      Fantastic. Sent chills through me.
      Love these little performances



    37. 37

      That was super cool. I'd love to do a flash mob…



    38. 38

      Re: tom951
      there were only white people cos theres not many black people going for xmas shopping in italy…most blacks in the country are poor immigrant struggling for a living, i doubt they can go around and do flashmobs! Get an education before opening your mouth for nothing
