Hi GLEEks!
So, it has been said that Ryan Murphy would like Justin Bieber to appear on GLEE. There was an outcry about this from the GLEEmunity the first time out. Then nothing else was heard about it until very lately...
Justin Bieber has recently come out & said that GLEE is about people who look good & sing good. Really? How about it's about a group of misfits who accept who they are & use their talent to get them through the day. It's about being a team & doing whatever you can to reach your goals & dreams...oh yeah, and they do it singing all kinds of genres of music.
It came out yesterday that he was trying to "negotiate" his appearance by giving a condition that Cheryl Cole must be a guest star as well...because he wants to work with her & thinks this would be the time. REALLY? This is what you call being an immature little snotty diva.
There is an updated campaign on Twitter right now about #NoBieberonGLEE. The GLEEmunity is about 90 to 1 against having him on.
He is not a fit for the show for many reasons. First, even though he is 16 (maybe 17), he looks 12...and sounds it too. He is a one-trick-pony & hasn't proved he can sing much else besides his bubble-gum lyric music with only a few words. There is no depth to anything he does. And he proved how shallow he is & that he thinks GLEE is a gimmick to help him out by the stunts he pulled in his quotes. It's obvious he doesn't watch the show, otherwise he would know what it is about. Plus he has proved he doesn't have the maturity to handle the "bieste".
It has come to my attention that the negotiations are going on for him to appear close to the end of Season 2 or in Season 3. The GLEEmunity is trying to get word out there & making it very clear that we will NOT watch this episode if it happens. It will be protested. As dedicated as I am to the show, you can guarantee that I will purposely miss this episode. It would be a disappointment on the part of Ryan Murphy & Fox to let down their fanbase by not listening to them.
We do know that they hear the fans because they have used "Finchel" & "Puckleberry" during the Furt eppy, so I would hope they would listen to this outcry before any writing & negotiating is done for this travesty.
There was even an article written about 2 hours into the #NoBieberonGLEE campaign by Alison Nadaud from examiner.com: http://www.examiner.com/glee-in-national/glee-justin-bieber-haters-campaign-to-keep-him-off-the-show
There is also a twitition for tweeters to "sign" specifically for "No Bieber On GLEE"! Find it & get your twitter signature on it!
I realize diehard beliebers are upset, especially ones who are GLEEks, but the collective GLEEmunity is dead-set against it & we need our voice heard!
If you are on Twitter & would like to help our cause, here's a couple of rules:
1. Only put #NoBieberonGLEE one time per tweet or it will be considered spam
2. Put it in EVERY tweet so we can get it to trend
3. Retweet as many #NoBieberonGLEE tweets as possible from others
Thanks for your support!
** Update - there is a counter campaign going on right now. I have seen many more supporting our cause, but we need to step it up if you do not feel Justin Bieber has what it takes to be on GLEE. **
** DON'T FORGET - Please be sure to spell it correctly or it will NEVER trend! (I before E, GLEEks!) #NoBieberonGLEE

Superbowl NON-Tribute
From Catriona Wrightman at www.digitalspy.com:
The team behind Glee has reportedly decided not to devote the Superbowl episode to a single theme.
Previous rumors have suggested that the show would pay tribute to one musician. Bruce Springsteen and Michael Jackson have both been linked to the episode.
However, Movieline reports that the producers are now strongly considering airing a "regular" episode with music from a number of different artists.
Previous episodes of Glee have paid tribute to Madonna and Britney Spears, while the recent Halloween episode focused on The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
A spokesperson for Fox declined to comment on the reports.

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.”

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."

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.

Television Critics Brace for Time Warp
From Jeanne Jakle of Jakle's Jacuzzi on mysanantonio.com:
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. -- Hankering for a little "Horror" with your "Glee"? Then, go ahead and celebrate - maybe with a little "Time Warp."
At the annual Television Critics Association awards here, "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy said look for a "Rocky Horror Picture Show" episode five installments in when the show returns for its second season this fall.
He was mum on most details, except to indicate that Sue Sylvester wouldn't be happy about the school's glee club taking on such an edgy and irreverent musical. (She'd probably call it something like demented filth).
What a pity, as I could so see her donning fishnets and corset and doing a turn as that "sweet transvestite," Frankenfurter.
Murphy himself had plenty to clink a champagne glass over Saturday night. The nation's critics bestowed not one, not two, but three awards on his Fox musical comedy show. The piece de resistance was the final award: Program of the Year. That's when the stunning young cast of his show - minus the two with S.A. connections, Mark Salling and Dianna Agron (darn it). Lea Michele looked especially radiant and glamorous, sporting a shorter, shoulder-skimming 'do and an even slimmer and more toned figure.
The event certainly was star-studded with Bryan Cranston and others from "Breaking Bad" (best drama) also in attendance, along with two cast members from "M*A*S*H" - Mike Farrell (B.J. Hunnicut) and William Christopher (Father Mulcahy), who took the stage to help collect the Heritage Award.
Dax Shepard of "Parenthood", who stood out comically in a tomato red sui, was funny and clever as host of this year's ceremony. His biggest plus may have been his date, hoewver: the dazzling Kristen Bell, who, by the way, is the daughter of WOAI-TV's Tom Bell.
My favorite encounter was with Tom Hanks, a TCA awards darling, who picked up the plaque this time for his powerful World War II miniseries, "The Pacific."
Hanks, looking handsome in suit and tie, gave us a huge laugh with his grumbling over the casual attire worn by Murphy and the "Yo Gabba Gabba" winners (Outstanding Achievement in Youth Programming).
"This is the last time I'm (bleeping) dressing up for you," he bellowed as he collected his award.
At the reception afterward, the amiable Hanks was refreshingly attentive to every critic - including yours truly - who walked up to chat. Whether the topic was his latest success with "The Pacific" or his lighter movies, such as "Splash" or "Bachelor Party," Hanks exhibited that rare talent of making everyone feel that he or she is the most important person in the room.
Here's a list of this year's TCA winners:
• PROGRAM OF THE YEAR: "Glee" (FOX)
• OUTSTANDING NEW PROGRAM: "Glee" (FOX)
• INDIVIDUAL ACHIEVEMENT IN COMEDY: Jane Lynch, "Glee" (FOX)
• OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN COMEDY: "Modern Family" (ABC)
• OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN DRAMA: TIE - "Lost" (ABC) and "Breaking
Bad" (AMC)
• INDIVIDUAL ACHIEVEMENT IN DRAMA: Julianna Margulies, "The Good Wife"

• OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN MOVIES, MINISERIES & SPECIALS: "The

• HERITAGE AWARD: "M*A*S*H*" (CBS)

Botox Forces Rewrite on GLEE
From abs-cbnNEWS.com:
MANILA, Philippines – After the global backlash that resulted from Charice’s much-publicized cosmetic procedures, Ryan Murphy, the creator of hit American musical television series “Glee,” was forced to rewrite her episode, a report said.
The New York Magazine reported on July 19 that the rewritten episode contains a message that “it's important to love and embrace one's naturally round face as it is."
This was apparently in response to Filipino cosmetic surgeon Vicki Belo’s explanation that the thermage and Botox procedures done on Charice was intended to make the 18-year-old singer’s naturally round face more narrow.
Belo said the botulinum toxin injections, which immobilize some muscles, would not have any effect on Charice's voice.
Recently, Charice caused an Internet uproar after having cosmetic surgery to improve her looks ahead of her debut on top US television show "Glee."
"It's one of the big preparations we are making for 'Glee' and of course I also want to look fresh on cam," Charice said in a TV interview as she defended her decision to have cosmetic surgery at such a young age.
Fans, however, flooded the star's official website, www.charicemania.com, as the issue became a hot Internet topic, with many lamenting the fact that she felt pressure to alter her face.
Worried by the negative feedbacks, Charice’s mom, Raquel, called on the public not to make a big deal out of the issue.
She tweeted: “Don't make it big deal pls? It might affect Cha's career. Belo, if you read this help Charice to achieve her dream. Don't push her down.”
Raquel also claimed that Belo “broke the confidentiality between the patient and the doctor” when the celebrity cosmetic surgeon allowed the media to witness the procedures.
In response, the Belo Medical Group tweeted: “As with all endorsers, this wouldn't have been made public without Charice's knowledge and consent.”
Charice's procedure has become a top-10 global topic on the social networking site Twitter.
The diminutive Filipina first gained global renown through video-sharing website YouTube and has since become a favorite of US TV talk show queen Oprah Winfrey.

ACAFELLAS
Hello all of GLEEkdom!
It was this episode when I began my journey (pun intended) with GLEE. I honestly decided to watch this episode because Josh Groban was gonna be on it. Little did I know what would begin in my life!
I have to jump on these two references before anything else!!
1. Emma brought up the confidence of John Stamos in this episode. Prophetic? Possibly.
2. Dakota Stanley refers to Finn as "Frankenteen", which is now Cory Monteith's twitter account. @frankenteen
LOVED these references!
This early episode really shows the differences of everyone in GLEE, and that ALL are accepted, even while they are still learning things about themselves. Like confidence. Where Will puts together a few guys as "Acafellas" to help with his confidence which is dwindling by what he believes is upcoming parenthood & thinking he's failing with the glee club.
We also only had a taste, this episode, of what Terri, Emma & Sue are. Although, we did get quite a bit out of Emma. When you have to scrub your plant leaves, you need therapy. And I love the glimpse of Quinn's confidence when she "stands up" to Sue. However, watching Sue make Santana cry by taking away tanning priviledges was hysterical!
Can I just say that Dakota's "little man" syndrome was so freakin' funny!! But when New Directions were spying on Vocal Adrenaline, I would like to know where Jessie was at! OK, I realize the character wasn't there yet, and neither was Shelby, but I just thought it was interesting. But...Jessie can't do any of those dance moves anyway. Johnathon Groff &/or Jessie St. James fans, do not get upset...I am just pointing out my opinion by observation. But that will take place in future recaps.
Puck comes into his own in this episode & shows his place in GLEE. Even if he has decided he's lovin' some cougar action. FUNNY!!
OK, I have a question. Why would you celebrate a teacher coming back from getting his thumbs sawed off with a cake that has 2 giant thumbs up? That's awful! But amazingly funny for the show!
Even though we realize how creepy Sandy is by the pilot, this is where we get to see to what level of creepy he is. If someone ever tells you that you are "Sandy-level creepy", you may want to take a good look at yourself & do some serious life reflection. However, I do not remember seeing in this episode where Josh Groban wants Sandy to stop sending nude pix of himself. Did he say tonight & I missed it, or was it edited out?
Can I say that I love Will's parents? Well, I do! Even his alcoholic mom (that Josh Groban happens to love). Whatever happens with them? Dad goes to law school & mom ends up with Josh? COME BACK, MR. & MRS SHUESTER!!
Can I just say, also...poor Howard? Well, here goes..."Poor Howard"! That poor dude just doesn't have it going for him. I think it was Terri that made him do inventory...just saying...
We always have a feel for who Rachael is. Period. There is really nothing to break down yet!
I'm really glad they didn't extend the thing with Mercedes & Kurt, too.
OK...I think that's it for my recap this week.
Next week's may be late as my family will be in the middle of a move. I am trying to figure out how to work in some GLEE. It may have to be hulu and a late recap. So just incase you're wondering...
It was this episode when I began my journey (pun intended) with GLEE. I honestly decided to watch this episode because Josh Groban was gonna be on it. Little did I know what would begin in my life!
I have to jump on these two references before anything else!!
1. Emma brought up the confidence of John Stamos in this episode. Prophetic? Possibly.
2. Dakota Stanley refers to Finn as "Frankenteen", which is now Cory Monteith's twitter account. @frankenteen
LOVED these references!
This early episode really shows the differences of everyone in GLEE, and that ALL are accepted, even while they are still learning things about themselves. Like confidence. Where Will puts together a few guys as "Acafellas" to help with his confidence which is dwindling by what he believes is upcoming parenthood & thinking he's failing with the glee club.
We also only had a taste, this episode, of what Terri, Emma & Sue are. Although, we did get quite a bit out of Emma. When you have to scrub your plant leaves, you need therapy. And I love the glimpse of Quinn's confidence when she "stands up" to Sue. However, watching Sue make Santana cry by taking away tanning priviledges was hysterical!
Can I just say that Dakota's "little man" syndrome was so freakin' funny!! But when New Directions were spying on Vocal Adrenaline, I would like to know where Jessie was at! OK, I realize the character wasn't there yet, and neither was Shelby, but I just thought it was interesting. But...Jessie can't do any of those dance moves anyway. Johnathon Groff &/or Jessie St. James fans, do not get upset...I am just pointing out my opinion by observation. But that will take place in future recaps.
Puck comes into his own in this episode & shows his place in GLEE. Even if he has decided he's lovin' some cougar action. FUNNY!!
OK, I have a question. Why would you celebrate a teacher coming back from getting his thumbs sawed off with a cake that has 2 giant thumbs up? That's awful! But amazingly funny for the show!
Even though we realize how creepy Sandy is by the pilot, this is where we get to see to what level of creepy he is. If someone ever tells you that you are "Sandy-level creepy", you may want to take a good look at yourself & do some serious life reflection. However, I do not remember seeing in this episode where Josh Groban wants Sandy to stop sending nude pix of himself. Did he say tonight & I missed it, or was it edited out?
Can I say that I love Will's parents? Well, I do! Even his alcoholic mom (that Josh Groban happens to love). Whatever happens with them? Dad goes to law school & mom ends up with Josh? COME BACK, MR. & MRS SHUESTER!!
Can I just say, also...poor Howard? Well, here goes..."Poor Howard"! That poor dude just doesn't have it going for him. I think it was Terri that made him do inventory...just saying...
We always have a feel for who Rachael is. Period. There is really nothing to break down yet!

Lea & Matthew Perform at the Tony's!
OK, all...
Just watched the back-to-back performances of Matthew Morrison & Lea Michele.
Mr. Shue was doing a lot of work & was quite entertaining. From the pix I saw of the dress rehearsals, it didn't disappoint! He was out of breath by the end, but he danced his behind off & stayed in tune! He was wonderful!
I am still disappointed that Lea Michele did "Don't Rain on my Parade". She did it JUST like she did on the "Sectionals" episode. However, she did find Jonathan Groff (aka - Jessie St. James) & sat on his lap, plus flirted with Will Smith & Jay-Z. Even with all of that, AND the shout out to the Tony's, it still read just like sectionals on GLEE. Really wished she'd done something else. You know...Kristen Chenoweth AND Indina Menzel were there...they could have all gotten together & done a big ol' "For Good" rendition that would've, could've, been beautiful!
What did everyone else think?

SHOWMANCE
Well, wasn't that fun?
Tonight, we got to watch the scrappy glee club try to fight for themselves, Mr. Shue's gullible/newby side, and Sue Sylvester in all of her man-eating glory! Plus, we get to see the crazies in Will's life.
So much was over-the-top, but this was giving us a sense of who everyone is, or at least starts out to be.
I was laughing hysterically during "Push It" & then the "pre approved" song list from Mr. Figgin's pastor. And the whole "celebacy club" thing was crazy funny.
We also get to see Finn coming into his own as he learns to deal with his talent & trying to balance it with his "coolness".
This is why this show is so good!!
