Melisma is a pretty specific term. It refers to a series of notes sung on one syllable. [link]
I think Kurt just has a really pure falsetto. I don't think he's auto-tuned.
Finn? Bless his heart.
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Pardon my ignorance - what's autotuning?

It's how she'll start just off pitch and then hit the note.

I am pretty sure that nearly all the voices are auto-tunes on Glee. It is a shame because I understand the singers have naturally great voices that don't need autotune, so I'm not sure why they use it so much.

Compassionately intolerant
I'm with le nubian. All of the voices seem 'augmented' to me, especially Kurt's and Finn's. And Artie, much as I like his natural voice. Mercedes, much less so. I think hers is the least produced.

Cop Rock had its moments (and every time I see an ad for one of these TV judges that has a choir singing in the courtroom, I think "did we learn NOTHING from Cop Rock?"). And seriously - it was better than a lot of what's on now. And getting renewed.
I will never forget the jury/choir rocking and singing "he's guilty! and now he's got to pay!" In case you missed it - [link] (God bless You Tube)
so I'm not sure why they use it so much.
It's probably to save time. They don't have time to do multiple takes, so they do a few and cobble them together with autotune.
