Summary of Glee Season 4 DVD Box Set

 On April 9, 2012, Fox renewed Glee for a fourth season. Ryan Murphy has confirmed that all regular cast members from the third season will be returning to the show for its fourth season, though "it doesn't mean everyone will be doing 22 episodes".

The fourth season will continue to be set at McKinley High in Ohio and follow several of the just-graduated characters to New York, and will be set at a performing arts school there. The Ohio portion of the show will feature a number of new characters. Two actresses have been announced for multi-episode guest-starring arcs as part of the New York sequences: Sarah Jessica Parker and Kate Hudson.[88] Parker's character will be a mentor to Kurt, and Hudson's a mentor to Rachel; Hudson will be appearing in six episodes during the fall.

Fox announced on May 14, 2012, that Glee would be moving to Thursday nights at 9 pm ET for the fourth season. Episodes will be airing after that evening's 8 pm ET music competition "results" shows—The X Factor in the fall and American Idol in midseason. The season will premiere on September 13, 2012. The second episode of the season is being planned as the show's second Britney Spears tribute, and will feature eight of her songs.

On June 4, 2012, writer Marti Noxon announced that she will no longer be a writer and consulting producer for the show. Three new regular characters will be added for season four of the show, including a female high school student, a male character in his twenties, and Puck's younger brother who plays the guitar.
