Kathy Griffin, New Directions, The Beatles, Pink, and a Nun - What More Could You Want From Glee?

I don't even know where to begin.  Santana vs. Brittany, Kathy Griffin vs. Sarah Palin, New Directions vs. Warblers, and who the hell is going to die?  These are all the questions I'm having issues with.

Last week we saw Santana confess her love for Brittany, but Brittany wasn't going to have any of it, because she can't drop Artie at the drop of a hat.  She did manage to tell her that she would be the next choice if they so happened to break up.

Tonight we have Kathy Griffin acting like Sarah Palin as a member of the Tea Party and Loretta Devine as a nun, which can only mean one thing - there's an appeal to our friends on the right by casting these two.  And who better to show their true colors than Sue Sylvester and her Aural Intensity by singing, "Jesus Is My Friend."  Clearly someone will be playing to them.

In addition to that song, the Warblers will be singing "Blackbird" by The Beatles (Kurt)
"Candles" by Hey Monday (Kurt and Blaine), "Misery" by Maroon 5 (Blaine), and "Raise Your Glass" by Pink (The Warblers).  And while New Directions may only have 3 songs up their sleeve tonight, they're all original, with 2 of them released already, "Loser Like Me" and "Get It Right."  Both of those songs rely heavily on Rachel Barry.  The third song will be all about Mercedes, "Hell to the No."

And what of the death of the century?  Did everyone seem to forget about that?  It seems like it vanished from thin air and no one is talking about it any longer.  My thought is, we could either be taken by surprise or it was simply thrown out.  Either way, we will find out tonight on Fox at 8/7 central.  Don't Miss It!

Someone On Glee is Going To Die - It's a Done Deal

Yes, someone on Glee is going to kick the bucket!  According to Michael Ausiello, “the Grim Reaper, of all people, will be crashing Regionals.” Oh no, please don't let it be Principal Figgins, Ryan and I love his character.  

Ausiello went on to say that “Rumor has it someone will sing their swan song just prior to Regionals. And to say the tragedy has a significant impact on it is a big freakin’ understatement.” 

So now all we have to do is wait for the "Original Song" episode to air on March 15.  

On Tuesday, a preview for next week's episode, "Sexy" and "Original Song" was released.  While the majority of the video is focused on next Tuesday's episode, we do get a sneak peak at the Regional performances.  As the Warblers prepare to perform, Kurt is battling a case of stage fright. Standing with Blaine, Kurt asks, "Has anyone ever literally died on stage?"

So who's excited to see the Superbowl tomorrow? You don't have to lie, you can be honest.

Well... my teams, the Dallas Cowboys and the Houston Texans are not playing this year and I hate both teams playing tomorrow, so I guess that leaves me waiting for the return of GLEE!!! I'm so excited, I love this show! But you already knew that.

Not only will New Directions be performing Michael Jackson's Thriller in an unprecedented fashion, but The Dalton Academy Warblers have their chance at Destiny Child's, "Bills,Bills, Bills." Check it out here and tomorrow night as we celebrate the best Glee episode to date.

A Glee Thriller for the Ages

So... not only will the Glee cast be performing in their most important gig of the season, they will be playing to millions and millions of macho dudes who watch the biggest game of the season, The Superbowl.  I just finished reading the article in the Entertainment Weekly magazine I received this week and I'm actually quite excited about it.  Well, I guess it helps that I'm an avid fan of the show, Ryan and I both are.

The costumes and makeup are simply amazing; some of the characters are hardly recognizable, unless you're a true Glee Fan.  But regardless of the outfits, the performance piece is what catches my imagination.  The New Directions kids will be performing to Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and the Yeah Yeah Yeah's "Heads Will Roll." And this will all be happening immediately after the Superbowl.

The article gives away a synopsis of the show; let's just say it will be appearing on a football field with a live marching band, spooky smoke and a performance unlike you've ever seen since the Rocky Horror, Madonna and Britney Spears episodes.

And what is Fox doing to help promote the show to all these manly men?  Sue Sylvester's Cheerios will be performing Katy Perry's "California Gurls" in scantily outfits.  "We put stuff in there understanding that there are a lot of dudes who watch the Super Bowl.  So it was making sure that the dudes who refuse to watch Glee are like, Wait a second!" claims Brad Falchuk, the co-creator of the show and who directed this episode.
