I am trying you all!! Don't give up on me!!

I'm just hoping this posts out there...

Hope to chat with you soon, GLEEks! I will do my #FF's whenever I can actually get on...

Until then...have a great Halloween!! If anyone is dressing up as a GLEE character, I cannot wait to see! Chris Colfer definitely wants to see them too!!

Mercedes Dad Here

From Heidi Suke @ www.wetpaint.com/glee:

We’ve got a dish so hot you’ll burn your hands!

David Alan Grier has just tweeted that he’s been cast as “Jasper,” who will play Mercedes’ singing, dancing, homeless, estranged father in a three-episode arc. (Wait, her dad is homeless? Who knew?)

Wow — our memories of David just went from black and white to color. In Living Color, that is! You may remember David from his many, um, colorful characters on the variety show.

Could be Wedding Bells for Sue...

From Christopher Rosen @ www.wetpaint.com/glee:

Wow, Gleeks. Put on your spoiler glasses and check out this massive bit of scoop.

We already know that comedy icon Carol Burnett will be heading to Glee to play Sue Sylvester's Nazi-hunting mother in a November sweeps episode, but now we know the circumstances for her arrival: It could be for Sue's wedding!

Apparently during the episode Kurt is planning his dad and Finn's mom's wedding (!) and Sue gets jealous and announces that she's getting married too. Apparently to someone she views as an equal. Interesting.

As for Burnett, it's revealed that her name is Doris and that she sings with Sue! "She and I sing a duet, ‘Why, Oh Why, Oh Why, Did I Leave Ohio’ from [the Broadway musical] Wonderful Town,” reveals Jane Lynch. "I guess all the Nazis have been caught, so Mother comes back — but there’s still a lot of resentment. We’re going to see another level of Sue’s vulnerability. This has a lot to do with why Sue is so mean."

Upcoming GLEE Spoilers!

From Christopher Rosen at www.wetpaint.com/glee:

Hey, Gleeks. Do you wanna know what your favorite show has on tap after next week's Rocky Horror tribute? Strap on your spoiler goggles and check it out below. You've been warned!

On November 9, the episode called "Never Been Kissed" will follow Finn and Sam and their quest to "control their urges." Whatever that means. Coach Beiste will find out, unfortunately, and the glee clubbers will have some explaining to do.

On November 16, Gwyenth Paltrow arrives to fill in for Mr. Schuester, while Sue Sylvester takes over for Principal Figgins. Yikes!

And on November 23, Sue's mother (played by Carol Burnett) will arrive, just as New Directions prepares for Sectionals.

It looks like we're all in store for some juicy episodes!

Murphy Might Get a "Horror" Remake

OK #GLEEks...

There are rumors out there that Ryan Murphy has been offered a full remake of "Rocky Horror Picture Show" due to the "Rocky Horror GLEE Show" episode coming up on October 26th for the Halloween episode.

I am going to try to hold judgment until I watch the episode, but WAY before GLEE ever happened, I had pictured a RHPS remake directed by Tim Burton. His style is PERFECT for this! And then the following cast (keeping Tim Burton in mind). There have been some tweaks since 2 years ago, but here's who I picture:

Frank N Furter - Johnny Depp
Janet - Ashley Tisdale or Amy Adams
Brad - Ashton Kutcher
Riff Raff/Magenta combo - Alan Rickman/Burnadette Peters or Conan O'Brien/Helena Bonham Carter
Columbia - Amy Poehler
Eddie - Jack Black (this is the ONLY substitute for Meatloaf out there - none other)
Rocky - James Marsden
Dr. Scott - Patrick Stewart
Narrator/Criminologist - Morgan Freeman

Agree? Disagree? Thoughts of who else? Who do you see as any of the characters &/or director of this so-bad-it's-fun movie?

Please note that my thoughts on these could change after next week...(except for Jack Black. He stays.)

Kings of Leon Bought GLEEks a Kitten

...let us fall in love with that kitten, then snuck into our houses in the middle of the night & punched us in the face WHILE stepping on our kitten...

From www.rttnews.com:

Kings of Leon were surprised by the reaction they received after turning down an offer to have their songs used in an episode of the hit TV show Glee.

Drummer Nathan Followill spoke with Mojo magazine about the offer and says the band wasn't expecting the backlash they got after turning down Glee.

"Turning down Glee was like stepping on a kitten. We had no idea there was going to be that response. As artists . . . you have the right to turn down stuff and at the time it just didn't seem to be the right fit," he says.

He adds, "No offense to anybody. Hopefully a show will come out about hot models in bikinis and then we'll let 'em use every one of our songs."

The band's newest album Come Around Sundown hits stores in Ireland, Australia and Germany on October 15, the UK on October 18 and in North America on October 19.

* Bad Kings of Leon! *

Criss on Chris

From Michael Ausiello of www.ausiellofiles.ew.com:

“My guess is as good as anybody’s,” shrugs newest Glee cast member Darren Criss of reports that his character Blaine—a charismatic, out-and-proud gay teen from a rival school—is being groomed as a love interest for Chris Colfer’s Kurt. “It’s a really big secret.”

The two meet in the Nov. 9 episode when Kurt, who is fast becoming fed up with life at McKinley High, considers transferring to the nearby Dalton Academy, where Criss’ character is a student. “I think Blaine’s most important role is…as a mentor to Kurt,” says Criss, whose only major pre-Glee TV credit was a stint on ABC’s short-lived Eastwick. “At this point, Kurt’s [sexuality] has been such a sense of discord in his life. Blaine finds [being gay] empowering. He embraces who he is, and sees Kurt [struggling with] the same things that he had to deal with, and I think he wants to impart that knowledge.”

Criss hopes Blaine will serve as a positive role model for viewers as well, given the recent string of suicides among gay youth. “It’s great to see a strong character like this on a hit show that so many people are watching,” he says. “I can’t really think of any other gay characters on TV that are this young and sure of themselves. I hope all the kids struggling with this issue can look to a guy like Blaine and feel [inspired] by his confidence.”

Paltrow Goes Old School on GLEE

From Terri Schwartz at www.hollywoodcrush.mtv.com:

This is the stuff the "Random Yet Notable" category was created for. You probably already knew that Gwyneth Paltrow will be guest-starring on an upcoming episode of "Glee." But did you know her substitute teacher character will be dressing up as Abraham Lincoln's wife Mary Todd Lincoln and singing a showtune from "Chicago"? Seriously. We have it on good authority from "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy, who was quoted in the Wall Street Journal's entertainment blog Speakeasy.

We won't find out until the episode airs what this whole Mrs. Abraham Lincoln thing is all about, but it got us thinking about other intriguing historical figures that we'd like to see get their moment on "Glee." Since New Directions rocked that amazing Lady Gaga episode, we know they're game.

Cleopatra
Easily one of the most kickass women in history, Cleopatra was a colorful personality and a total man-killer. Sounds to me like a good opportunity for Santana to take centerstage.

Napoleon Bonaparte
Napoleon was one of history's most powerful men, and one of the smallest. For some reason, I can just picture Kurt being able to use a history lesson on Napoleon (while in costume, of course), to get across one of "Glee's" moral lessons.

Rosa Parks
She's more of a modern historical figure than anyone else on this list, but Rosa Parks is easily one of the most recognizable faces in the fight for racial equality. And since there's bound to be a "Glee" episode dealing with racial diversity, why not let Mercedes reenact Rosa's famous bus rebellion?

Vlad the Impaler
Halloween is coming up, and—surprise, surprise—vampires are still all the rage, so you can't tell me there isn't some way to incorporate the man who inspired the creation of Dracula into the show. Just toss in a song from "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"'s Dracula puppet musical, and they're set.

Louisa May Alcott
So what if we have a soft spot in our hearts for the author of "Little Women"? She was an important figure during the Civil War era just like Mary Todd Lincoln, and a big proponent of women's rights. We see her included in a Girl Power! episode (as long as the Spice Girls are represented too!).

Salling: Axed or Absent?

From Ted Casablanca & Taryn Ryder of The Awful Truth at www.eonline.com:

Is Mark Salling being punished by Gleemaster Ryan Murphy & Co. for pursuing a solo'ish career?

According to Hollywood Life, Glee's resident bad boy may have breached his contract with Fox by making his own album and is supposedly putting his band before his cast.

Well, here's the real deal straight from an on-set source, because—spoiler alert—you won't see Mark in next week's episode either:

Our source adamantly says Mark's absence from the show does not have anything to do with his album. Anyone notice Jayma Mays gone last night too? And no one's making a fuss over that.

"Mark would never prioritize anything over the show, he respects the executives and his cast too much to do that," spills our Glee insider.

"People forget that he's been doing music for almost a decade before Glee," adds our source. "He just has a target on his back because he's the first of the cast to do a solo album."

Which, by the way, we hear the cast is totally supportive of.

"A lot of the cast are planning solo albums as well, they are celebrating Mark's release, not creating drama out of it," 'fesses Deep Gleek.

And if you remember, Glee fans, Dianna Agron was absent from a few episodes in the first season when she was pursuing her movie career, so this isn't all that strange.

So never fear, Puck lovers, we're told hottie Mark will be back steaming up the small screen ASAP.

"He's still a series regular," adds our studio insider. "Mark will be back soon, Mohawk in full force, with a major bad boy comeback."

Fewf! Matthew Morrison can't carry all the hotness on his pretty face alone.

Are your Gleek hearts calm yet?



** Just a note that Matthew Morrison will be doing a solo album soon, too! **

Jesse & Superbowl Tribute: Murphy Gives Insight

From Christopher Rosen of www.wetpaint.com/glee:

Glee creator Ryan Murphy has slowed the spoilers down ever so slightly this season, but that doesn't mean he still isn't happy to talk about what he's planning for future Glee episodes. Like, for instance, will Jesse St. James (Jonathan Groff) come back?

"Jonathan Groff is definitely coming back next year. Next calendar year. He's not available until January, but he'll be in the back [nine] episodes of this season." Whoa, get excited!

Speaking of next year, what does Murphy have planned for the Super Bowl? "No, I still haven't figured out who I want to do. I feel like everyone's already talking about Michael Jackson or Springsteen or Prince, but I want to do something that no one would suspect. Just some random person, I don't know. I have a couple feelers out to several artists, all of whom have said yes — which I never expected, so now I have to choose, and I don't know who I want."

Exciting! We hear N'Sync is available.

Meanwhile, what's the latest on the relationship front? "Nothing really new on the Rachel-Finn front...Although I will tell you there is trouble ahead when Rachel plays spin the bottle!" Jacob Ben-Israel, this could be your moment!

Source: E!

*** Sharing my own thoughts now ***

~ When Jesse makes his appearance, please let there be some family time with him & so Greyson Chance can play his very talented little brother! Perfect!

~ Really, Ryan? Michael Jackson is too obvious & wanted? DUH!! Then may I suggest the Spice Girls? Someone threw that one out there! It's pretty random & would be very entertaining!

~ Spin-the-bottle, huh? Is this where there would still be a little something between Rachel & Puck? That will be interesting & would be cause for celebration with Puckelberry 'shippers! And a bit devastating for Finchel 'shippers!

GLEE at The Office

From Michael Ausiello from ausiellofiles.ew.com:

Okay...an entire upcoming episode of The Office will be dedicated to the Dunder Mifflin staff getting together to watch Glee.

Bizarre, right? And brilliant!

Unfortunately, according to an Office source, no Glee actors will actually appear in the episode. Which means that no, Dwight will not get pantsed by Puck. (Curses!)

GLEE Plans Another Hard-Hitter

From Christopher Rosen at www.wetpaint.com:

During tonight's episode of Glee, show creator Ryan Murphy and the cast tackle the subject of religion with surprising little snark and sarcasm. The episode, "Grilled Cheesus," is one of the best yet and will no doubt touch everyone who watches. But if you think this is the last time Glee plans on getting serious, think again. There's also the rash of gay teen suicides in the news lately, something that everyone in the cast wants to speak out against.
"Ryan [Murphy] wants to do an episode about it, which I think is very smart of him," Matthew Morrison told E!. "As a cast I don't know much we can do. That's why I think an episode would be great... Ryan is very current with staying on the times, so I think it would be this season if it were to happen."

Echoed Heather Morris: "I just found out today about the episode, and I think that's amazing. I just saw the tragedies on the news the other night. I think people need to be aware of what the Internet is doing for so many people. Yeah it's good, but people are putting up other people's private movies? It's disgusting."

(Heather is referring to Tyler Clementi, a Rutgers student who jumped off the George Washington Bridge after a video of him with another man was put online without his knowledge.)
"It's sad that it's taken these past few weeks and horrible tragedies to really let people know what's going on," added Kevin McHale. "I think being in our position and Ryan taking that on is great.Hopefully we can move the general public and let the kids and the parents watching the show know that everybody deserves to be loved."

Jessalyn Gilsig agrees: "What's unique about Glee is we have this audience of kids and adults. Just as it's important to send this message to the kids about bullying and the effect in can have, we have to send it to the parents. We have to send it to the teachers. It's the adults who have to start taking responsibility and managing this behavior and educating youth on acceptance, empathy, and compassion. In a sense, I can't even demonize the children as much as I do the families that need to know. Parents and the administration need to take responsibility."

Will GLEE Choose the Boss?

From www.thenjunderground.com:

So after Fox's musical TV show Glee did a Madonna episode last year, Jane Lynch has revealed that the club may end up doing a Boss inspired performance. In an interview with Digital Spy Lynch talks about how her recreation of Madonna's "Vogue" video was one of her highlight's of working on the show and how she'd love to do a Bruce Springsteen inspired episode. Quote from the interview is below.

"I hear rumors that we may do a Bruce Springsteen episode and I think something like that would be amazing," she said. "I'm a big fan!" [Jane Lynch]



*** My heart just broke a little bit! WE WANT MJonGLEE!!! Are you listening Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk & Ian Brennan? MJ...NOT Bruce!! ***

GLEE Goes From 'Simpsonized' to Miniaturized

From Michael Ausiello of http://ausiellofiles.ew.com:

Methinks Glee is about to answer the centuries-old question, “What does a 5-year-old boy look like with a Mohawk?” Sources confirm that the Fox phenom is looking for kindergarten-aged actors and actresses to play kiddie versions of Puck, Santana, Rachel, Brittany, and Mercedes in this season’s seventh episode. Why? Beats me. Got a theory?

Fatone'd for GLEE?

From Christopher Rosen at www.wetpaint.com:

Last year, after the all-Madonna episode, Britney Spears went on the Twitter offensive and wound up guest starring on the hit series. But don't expect a similar fate to befall former N'SYNCer Joey Fatone.

The former boy band star has hit Twitter and Facebook to campaign for an appearance on Glee. "Glee was good but I think my ass needs to get on that show a be a teacher or someone in the background ! Lol," he wrote on Twitter after the Britney episode.

He continued: "And let GLEEonFOX how ya feel either do an nsync ep or have me on there that would be a blast!!"

He also told People: "I love acting and I like to sing. It'd be perfect! Seriously, it's a great show. I'm a fan," adding that "Bye Bye Bye" or "It's Gonna Be Me" would be good songs for the show. Well, then! To be fair, both of those songs would be amazing for Glee, but do we really need to see Joey Fatone to have them played? Probably not. The only N'SYNC member we want on Glee is Justin Timberlake. Something tells us Ryan Murphy and the cast would agree.

The Situ-Asisan: Shum Speaks

From Hanh Nyguen at www.blog.zap2it.com:

"Glee" star Harry Shum, Jr. is proof that the squeaky wheel doesn't always get the grease.

His "Glee" character Mike Chang may have spent the first season largely silent, dancing in the background, but in Season 2 those nimble feet earned him some lines and his very own story -- as one point in the love triangle with Tina (Jenna Ushkowitz) and Artie (Kevin McHale).

"There is a group of people who hate Mike Chang, for the fact of them being huge Artie fans," Shum tells Zap2it. "It's to be expected because Artie is a fun character, a good character. If Tina and Artie are together forever though, then where can you go from there? I think it's good to stir it up, stir the pot a little."

That pot will continue to be stirred as Artie fights to win back his lady. Did we not just see him join the football team and start pumping iron in Tuesday's (Sept. 28) episode?

"It's going to be a little interesting over the next couple episodes between Mike, Tina and Artie," observes Shum. "Artie was a bad boyfriend, but is a good guy at the end of the day. He realized it. That happens a lot in relationships, you realize, 'Oh man, I messed up.' The new guy comes in. Mike Chang is starting to open up and be vocal about things and actually have a little more confidence."

Asian Camp

That confidence was proudly displayed at "Asian Camp," where he and Tina fell for each other. On the show, we see that Tina's memories of camp include stereotypical Asian props -- the Chinese lucky cat, unexplained Asian character writing, bamboo and little Asian kids playing with techno toys.

"I heard the set was going to be like full-out woks all over the place, so it was actually toned down a lot," says Shum with a laugh. "It was really funny. I never went to Asian Camp. I never knew that that existed. Then I Googled it, and it actually does exist. People on Twitter were telling me, 'Yeah, I used to go to Asian Camp, but it was never that much fun.'"

What's 'The Situ-Asian' With Those Abs?

The fun they're referring to, of course, is Mike Chang and Tina's romantic interlude, in which they embrace and kiss -- in front of the little Asian kids. Another aspect of that scene is Mike Chang's corrugated abs that not only catch Tina's attention, but the attention of viewers at home as well.

"Who goes to camp with these short shorts and open shirt, half naked? It's so funny," says Shum, adding that he was surprised at the focus on his physique. "Even when I was shooting that I didn't expect the response that I got. It comes all in little trends I guess. First it was the 'Other Asian' that came in and got forgotten and then 'No Bones' kind of came in and now I guess that."

There has to be a better nickname for him now besides "that."

"Yeah, someone -- I guess the whole Internet is calling me 'The Situ-Asian,'" admits Shum, referencing the "Jersey Shore" and now "Dancing With the Stars" cast member Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino known for his six-pack. "It's flattering but I don't think that's the only thing that Mike Chang has to offer. They're going to reveal a lot more things about what he is, what he can and what he can't do."

The LXD

What Mike Chang, and therefore Harry Shum, can do is move. Not only do we see his loose-limbed, serpentine moves on "Glee," but also as part of the superhero-themed dance webisodes "The LXD," which stands for The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers. Shum's LXD alter ego is Elliot Hoo, a guy who stumbles upon a mystical pair of shoes that have a personality of their own. Take a look:



After the first season's origin stories, "The LXD" will release its 10-episode second season this fall in which the heroes take on the villains. Some underground names that dance fans might recognize are B-Boy Casper and Frantic, whom Shum says are "some of the best dancers in the world." He also teases what else to expect in Season 2.

"You are going to see a slew of the evil side and it's kind of creepy," he says, adding that more women will also be joining on. "There's some members of ['America's Best Dance Crew' runner ups] The Beat Freaks. Definitely Pandora and the Dark Nurse will come back as well. We're trying to fill up the girls as well because we know it was off balance last season."

"Glee" airs on FOX Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET, and "The LXD" will debut its second season this fall.
