Hey! Glee fans! When’s the last time you remembered the name of a Glee club that didn’t have a memorable name? That’s right! Exactly. What?

Hi. I’m another one of those tools from Mission CTRL. You might remember me from if we ever met.

Now, Mission CTRL is know for making mediocre comedy, but there’s one thing we don’t joke about. And that thing is creating great Glee club names. See, we haven’t patented a highly-innovative and somewhat-secretive process we call General Creativity – because we know that when you’re on stage at state sectionals the last thing you want to be thinking about it is just how ineffective your glee club name is.

Cut to shot of someone about to sing at mic. Paralyzed with thought of ineffectual Glee club name.

Wanna see our credentials? Mission CTRL independently came up with the Glee club names currently used on Glee: New Directions and the Treble Tones. Sure – there’s no proof and we were laughed out of court. But they wouldn’t have been laughing if they had taken 30 seconds to check out these testimonials.

Cut to testimonials.
