The impending graduation of Glee's biggest stars and their constant talk of moving to New York led many to conclude that a Rachel/Kurt spinoff was in the works. However, Fox announced today that the show isn't happening. Fox entertainment president Kevin Reilly said:
It's the holiday season and Glee's iTunes sales are down, which means they need an episode that's chock full of songs and light on plot more than ever. Since the musical numbers are often the highlight of the show, there's nothing really wrong with that, but it almost seems like Glee went out of its way to make the…
Glee's Sectionals episode has arrived once again, which means it's time for the the wrap off a few loose storylines from the first half of the season. In this episode we see the resolution of Mike's dad's efforts to squash his son's dreams, the Troubletones' beef with New Directions, and (possibly) Quinn's epically…
This week's episode of Finn Knows Best opens with Principal Figgins threatening to suspend Santana for two weeks for slapping Finn in the face. However, she winds up getting off because Finn claims that she actually only pretended to hit him. Mr. Schue asks what Finn's "angle" is, and you might assume that he feels…
While last week's episode of Glee sparked protests from parents groups, thankfully tonight's episode featured more wholesome plotlines. Now that we've moved past two gay high school seniors talking about losing their virginity, the show went back to a non-scandalous topic: student/teacher sex. The episode opens with…
Before tonight's episode of Glee even aired, it was attacked by the Parents Television Council for behaving with "gross recklessness" by "celebrating teen sex." (The anti-gay Culture and Media Institute also complained that the show is "stepping up its campaign of homosexual promotion," but attacks from bigots are…
This week's Glee featured an enjoyable new character, some solid performances, and a long-awaited milestone in Brittany and Santana's relationship. However, to paraphrase Gandalf, it's essential that fans hate and love the show, as they hate and love themselves, so the writers also had the already-terrible adoption…
This season on Glee, one of the major plotlines involves 17-year-old Quinn scheming to win back the baby she put up for adoption, then never referenced for an entire season. The story is soap opera-y (in a bad way) and doesn't make much sense, but the problem is more serious than a few million fans screaming "JUST…
On tonight's Glee two severely underused characters finally got their own storyline: Mike Chang and Mercedes. While we learned that Mike can do more than perform incredible dance moves and make excessive references to the fact that he and he and Tina are Asian, Mercedes might have been better off with her usual two…
Tonight's episode of Glee revisited the Puck/Quinn baby storyline that was essentially abandoned in season two. That seems like a good idea, since plenty was left unresolved, but maybe it's too late to salvage one of the show's most poorly-written storylines.
Glee creator Ryan Murphy says that for season three,
The internet was all abuzz after a whole series of photos of Glee actress Heather Morris —with a fresh-looking shiner— surfaced, causing many to wonder what the photographer was trying to say.
In this Anna Wintour-approved music video the Glee kids cover David Bowie's 1980 hit "Fashion." Weirdly, Sam, who won't be on the show next season, is more visible than Kurt, the most fashionable student at McKinley High. Artie's wheelchair is also conspicuously absent. We'll assume that the cast isn't supposed to…
Remember how Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy said Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Chris Colfer would be leaving the show at the end of next season, and you didn't care so much about Finn but were distraught over the prospect of a life without Kurt? Well, we have good news: executive producer/co-creator Brad Falchuk…
In this week's Glee finale, New Directions heads to New York to compete in Nationals and stage impromptu performances at various spots around the city. In a first for TV shows about small town kids visiting the big city for the first time, no cranky New Yorker tells them to shut the hell up! (Though they probably…
It felt like there wasn't that much plot development in this week's Glee. Maybe that's because it featured four solo auditions in full — or perhaps I'm just disappointed that there was nothing about Brittany and Santana's relationship this week.
This week on Glee, Kurt learned that despite the creation of Santana's Bully Whips squad, the students at McKinley are still discriminating against homosexuals. Tonight we finally saw an end to the inane chatter about who would win Prom Queen, and though the results were leaked by an extra (who was told she'd "never…
There are so many romantic pairings on Glee that keeping straight which guy is angry at which girl for cheating on him earlier in the season can be hard to follow. So, why is Mercedes the only main character who's never had a boyfriend for more than one episode?
This week's episode is all about rumors, which conveniently allows Schue to assign songs from the Fleetwood Mac album of the same name (plus one "u"). During her ridiculously amusing web series "Fondue For Two" (which should definitely become a real thing) Brittany accidentally announces that Santana "plays for the…
On Thursday Glenn Beck delivered an epically moronic rant about how Glee is destroying America. Now, if you think Beck attacked this week's 90-minute Glee acceptancepalooza, which featured a dreamy gay guy serenading his boyfriend and a girl urging her lady love to come out, you're giving him more credit than he…
