And here's what you missed on Glee!

Since everyone is raving for a reunion show or even an episode, this might be the closest one Gleeks could get from it.

Discovery Plus is creating a three-part documentary series about "Glee." Well, not more of its impact on pop culture, but largely on its rather unspoken and very much public controversies and issues behind the curtain.

According to Deadline, Ample Entertainment will be producing the show. The production company is the ones behind HBO's docuseries "The Invisible Pilot" and Facebook's "9 Months with Courteney Cox."

So what will the series be all about?

The yet-untitled-Glee docuseries is reported to be interviewing key cast and crew members. To many's anticipations, they would now be sharing their first-hand stories during their time on the show - mostly among the time on the series' 100 episodes between Season 1 to Season 5, around 2009 to 2015.

Furthermore, the docuseries will shed light on the now-controversial series' "highs and lows of the production," even touching on topics like the set environment and community.

Testimonials would also be gathered from close family members and friends, and even never-heard-before stories that would finally address longstanding rumors surrounding the production.

Among the show's recent controversies includes Lea Michele's reported diva attitude and alleged racial microaggressions towards people on set.

With the recent announcement, fans on social media were immediately thrilled with the upcoming content.

"The Glee documentary will only slay if it's two hours of Dianna Agron talking about how Ry*n M*rphy is a piece of shit lmaoo," a fan posted.

"no glee documentary will ever get the full story without interviewing real time gleeks who were on the front lines of tumblr and twitter from 2010 to 2013," someone also shared.

"If they don't call it "That's what you missed on Glee" I'll be very disappointed," a netizen suggested.

"This is literally the best birthday present I could have ever asked for," another pointed out.

"Glee" has been in the headlines numerous times this year because of the issues that continue to surround its cast members, primarily its lead actress Lea Michele.

The fandom was awakened after Michele, who had portrayed Rachel Berry on the show, gets its "Glee" ending after bagging the role of Fanny Brice on the revival production of "Funny Girl" on Broadway, both on the show and in real life.

As of this writing, Discovery Plus has not yet announced the show's release date.
