Finn Hudson is a fictional character from the Fox musical comedy-drama series Glee. The character is portrayed by actor Cory Monteith, and has appeared in Glee from its pilot episode, first broadcast on May 19, 2009. Finn was developed by Glee creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan. He is star quarterback of the school's football team who risks alienation by his friends to join the Glee club at the fictional William McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio, where the show is set. Storyline Finn is the quarterback of the William McKinley High School football team. When glee club director Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) overhears Finn singing in the shower, he blackmails him into joining the glee club by planting marijuana in his locker. Finn is mocked by the other football players, but realizes he enjoys being in the club. Finn dates head cheerleader Quinn Fabray (Dianna Agron), but developed feelings for glee club star Rachel Berry (Lea Michele), kissing her during a private rehearsal, but he tells her to forget it happened and goes back to Quinn. Finn believed he was the father of Quinn's unborn child even though they never actually had sex. Throughout the first half of the season, Finn becomes increasingly restless, torn between staying with Quinn for the sake of his unborn child and his growing feelings for Rachel. Finn tells Quinn's parents about her pregnancy, and has Quinn move in with him and his mother when her parents kick her out. Rachel discovers that Puck (Mark Salling) is actually the father of Quinn's baby in "Sectionals" and decides to tell Finn in hopes of him dumping Quinn and getting with her. In "Hell-O" Rachel begins dating Finn, who decides he needs to take time out for himself. He changes his mind soon after, but Rachel has already begun dating Jesse St. James (Jonathan Groff), the lead singer of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline. When his mother, Carole (Romy Rosemont), begins dating Kurt's (Chris Colfer) father, in the episode "Home", Burt (Mike O'Malley), Finn worries that she is forgetting about his late father. He tries to break them up, but relents when Burt tells him that he loves his mother. As his mother and Kurt's fathers' relationship progresses, Finn and his mom eventually move in with Kurt and Burt. A little after this, Kurt (who refuses to accept that Finn is straight) remodels Finn's bedroom in an effort to please Finn. Seeing this as the last straw, Finn loses his temper and starts calling all the new decorations "faggy". Burt overhears him and is infuriated at Finn calling Kurt a "fag". Ashamed of his reaction, Finn tries to apologize to Kurt. Kurt refuses to accept the apology at first, but then eventually gives in after Finn saves him from bullies, while wearing a red shower curtain in an attempt at a Lady Gaga costume. In "Journey", Rachel kisses Finn and they begin dating. As season two starts, Finn and Rachel are shown to be in a serious relationship. In "Furt" Finn and Kurts parents, Burt and Carole announce their engagement, Finn is shocked by the news. Kurt continues to be bullied by Karofsky, and principal Sue says there is nothing she can do so Rachel decides to ask the other girls in the glee club make their football boyfriends threaten Karofsky so that he will leave Kurt alone. Finn refuses to say anything and doesn't defend Kurt fearing that if he does so he will be injured by Karofsky and lose his quarterback position on the Football team. During the wedding reception Finn makes a heartfelt speech to Kurt telling him how special he is and that from now on he has his back no matter what it costs him. He then has the rest of the glee club come up and sing "Just The Way You Are" to Kurt. In Special Education, Rachel learns about Finn sleeping with Santana and that no one told her. To get back at him, she almost sleeps with Puck, but he leaves before it can get too far, saying "I can't do that to him again" referring to Quinn's pregnancy. Rachel tells Finn this and apologizes, but Finn feels betrayed, since Rachel got mad at something he did when she was with Jesse, but since they never officially broke up, Rachel had actually cheated on him. Finn breaks up with her, and when she says Finn told her he would never break up with her, he replies, saying he never thought she could make him feel this way. Musical influences According to the series, Finn's major influences come from classic rock bands. Kurt affirms it in Ballad episode, some examples are: *Journey - Pilot shows that Finn's musical interests begun when he was young because of Darren, her mother's ex-boyfriend and a Journey fan. In the same episode, he chooses "Don't Stop Believing" to perform with New Directions. *The Doors - when Will compares him to Jim Morrison, Finn performs "Hello, I Love You" as Glee homework. Casting Finn Hudson is regularly portrayed by Cory Monteith.  (less)
