For Science
For Science is a sometimes weekly feature in which one of the Film School Rejects staffers takes on an epic cinematic challenge. Everything from eating 50 Chicken McNuggets during a screening of Morgan Spurlock’s Super Size Me to watching an entire season of Glee in a single day, we go to the extreme so that you don’t have to. We do it for the kids. We do it, For Science.

Sometimes, there is work to be done. And sometimes, the world needs a hero. That work is science, and I am the world's hero. This week I watch the first season of Glee in one sitting, and live to tell the tale....
