Still A Bad Graduation

Ugh! So now the Glee people are saying that Lea Michele, Chris Colfer and Cory Monteith aren't leaving Glee. I'm so sick of your games! The cast members signed on for 7 years and therefore can't be leaving the show after the 3rd season. Makes sense, but stop messing around. One of the creators was asked during Comic-Con if these 3 were leaving and he said:

Cory, Lea, Chris, they are seniors and so they are graduating. But because they are graduating doesn’t mean they’re leaving the show. I always say, if you have Lea Michele under contract, you don't just say, “You know what? We’re gonna let you go.” It just wouldn’t be kind of the smart thing to do.

Well duh!!!! I would come over there and strangle you myself if you did something like that. There are just more and more things that make me dislike Glee. It makes me sad because it has the potential to be a good show, but when you throw this bullshit into the mix, I'm outtie.

New Home?

So now that you all know I think the Glee writers are dumb, could there be a new place for Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, and Chris Colfer? Doubtful, but it’s worth a shot. Ryan Murphy and FX announced a new show called American Horror Story to premiere in October. I didn’t realize Ryan Murphy came from FX originally with Nip/Tuck. Kind of surprising that he co-created that and then went on to Glee. Totally different ball parks. Anyway, now he has created this new show about a family who moves into a haunted house:

The series, about a family that moves across the country to deal with past issues, features a cast that includes Dylan McDermott (“The Practice”), Connie Britton (“Friday Night Lights”) and Jessica Lange. The show follows a husband and wife (McDermott and Britton) trying to rebuild their family after a few setbacks -- a miscarriage and an affair -- and a change of scenery. Only problem: Their new house is haunted.

Hmmm. I might watch that depending on how they handle the haunting. I wonder what made him decide to take on another project and not stick with Glee. Maybe the Glee cast members will have guest starring roles.

Worst Graduation

Ok, I can’t ignore this any longer. I think this is the dumbest decision the Glee writers and producers could possibly make! Lea Michele (Rachel), Chris Colfer (Kurt), and Cory Monteith (Finn) will not be returning for season 4 of Glee. They will be “graduating” and they won’t be followed off to college. I understand that the writers didn’t want it to be one of those shows where the kids are in high school for 8 years, but wow. Your show is popular right now. Why would you change the cast so dramatically like that? I pretty much only watch the show for Lea Michele. She’s amazing and belongs on my TV singing. There’s a show right now called The Glee Project where the Glee talent guy is actively hunting for new talent. I don’t really like any of the kids they have on the show. I’m not even a very big fan of Glee and this makes me a little mad. I think it’s a really bad decision and I wouldn’t be surprised if the show gets canceled not too far down the line.

Fox is also going to release a 3D concert movie of Glee. I’m kind of over you!

Shooting the Spit

I kept this a secret until today, but the excitement has overwhelmed me and I must share. Tonight, 3 of my friends and I are going to see the cast of Glee live. We will officially be Gleeks tonight, which by the way means the build up of saliva in the salivary glands and the pushing of the tongue against those glands causing spit to shoot out, but we're going to ignore that definition for now. I saw Lea Michele at the Hollywood Bowl in Les Miserables when no one knew who she was and she was utterly amazing and I freaked out, so if you see a story on the news about some crazed fan running across the stage, it just might be me. You know you're all jealous. Happy Gleek day!!!!

The Night

Tonight is going to be the best night of all of our lives. Tonight is the night Glee begins for real. No more teasing, this is the real deal. As we have waited for this very night, we have been teased with the pilot and then with free videos and songs on YouTube as well as a national tour by the cast to various stores to promote the show. Now we can all set the TiVo or VCR for the technology impaired (my parents) and invite this amazing show into our living room with the fabulous Lea Michele and Jane Lynch. Not only will this be an amazing show, we hope, but it also features some hotness. Oh and lesbians, too. Go lesbians!

I hope everyone gets a chance to watch tonight. If you happen to miss it for whatever lame reason, you can catch it on Hulu. There should be no excuses! So go and watch and report back tomorrow. In the mean time, enjoy!

So Much Glee

The TV show Glee could not return faster. They teased everyone by showing the pilot back in May. Now it won’t air again until September. The actors are traveling around the country to various stores to promote the crap out of the show. I don’t know that it needs promotion. The hype around this show is incredible. I am super excited every time a new song is released on iTunes.


Many don’t know, but Lea Michele is a Broadway actor. She was in the original cast of Spring Awakening. She was also in Les Miserables at the Hollywood Bowl, hence the version of On My Own she sings in an upcoming episode. I remember hearing her on YouTube at one point and going gaga over her voice. Then, I saw Les Mis at the Bowl and recognized her voice and pretty much went ape shit. To know that I can invite her into my living room once a week is freaking awesome.

Until the show airs again, we can only rely on YouTube and iTunes. Enjoy.
