Latest posts about Glee
In the clip above, various members of the "Glee" cast recount -- with typical humility and grace -- their reactions to the news of their four Golden Globe nominations. It's possible they're a bit cockier now, as "Glee" becomes an unstoppable award juggernaut. A rundown of their recent hardware acquisitions is after the jump.
continue readingDo you ever dream that "Glee" was a true story, and that you went to school in that story? Jocks and drama geeks alike would spontaneously break into song, dance fighting would be the conflict resolution of choice (like "West Side Story"! With snapping!), and you'd reward your teachers' earnest pep talks with musical numbers (above). Your sports teams would also get crushed, week after week.
Well, I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but one high school decided to try their hand at "Glee"-ing out, and it was life imitating art...very poorly! At their graduation, a group of students took it upon themselves to cover "Don't Stop Believin'," and because we live in a society that rewards artists for taking chances without risk of humiliation, a clip of it was uploaded to the Internet. Don't feel too bad for them, everyone was very happy to hear the performance, and cheered very loudly! Though then again, they could be cheering never having to go back to that high school again. We may never truly know, but hit "continue reading" to see the performance after the jump.
continue readingFox has just announced the renewal of its hit musical, "Glee," for a second season. Granted, it's not the most shocking TV news to come down the pike -- after all, it's not like Fox is arranging ten-city tours for the stars of, say, "Fringe," whereas there are a bunch of the "Glee" kids in the clip above, meeting fans on their Magical Gleek Tour. Nevertheless, it's still a relief to fans who may feel that in light of certain late-night shake-ups, it's hard to count on ANYTHING in the TV industry. More after the jump.

The other day, while warming my vegan spring rolls and sipping Kombucha (read: eating Cheetos and drinking Coke), I overheard a surprising fact: My co-worker, and fellow ex-college jock, Matt Bredehoft, is a fan of "Glee." Mr. Bredehoft might be the only 24-year old man in America who switches between a mixed martial arts fight and "Glee" of his own volition. And, he thinks that I should be watching it, too.
I knew nothing about "Glee," so I asked Matt to sit down with me and tell me what I've been missing. We recorded our conversation, added a little Maxine Nightingale, and voila: Our first Couchcast -- "'Glee' for Dummies (and Jocks)." We compared "Glee" to Thai food, decided whether or not the glee club is run by felons, and had an in-depth discussion about getting pregnant in a hot tub. Did I come around on "Glee"? Will I jump into the show after its return next spring? There's only one way to find out.
Last night brought us the last "Glee" we're going to see until April (or until we buy the DVDs). So let's get it all out of our system in the recap, after the jump.

Yearbook photos, local TV ads, extremely polished off-the-cuff renditions of Van Halen's "Jump" -- WHATEVER. Last night's "Glee" was all about Terri Schuester's "baby" bump, and the truth about it FINALLY coming out. The full recap is after the jump.

How will the New Directions kids fare against a choir of girl delinquents and a choir of deaf teenagers? (Those are two separate choirs, by the way.) The full recap of last night's "Glee" is after the jump.
continue readingAs the members of New Directions continue their apparently endless march to Sectionals, this week promises to show us the group's first actual competitive opponents since Vocal Adrenaline sapped them of all their confidence in the series pilot. First, in a nod to the theme of exploring racial politics by means of a girly pastime that we all enjoyed in "Bring It On," the McKinley kids will face off against a glee club made up of students from an all-girl reform school. (And, by the way, I know everyone's excited about the upcoming episode Joss Whedon is directing, but they bust out a bunch of singing juvenile delinquents and they can't line up John Waters?!) After the jump, get a load of the OTHER unique school challenging New Directions for Sectionals supremacy.
