It was announced today that the “Glee” kids would be embarking on a 4 city tour in May, with tickets on sale through Ticketmaster March 12/13th. So far only four cities have been announced, and it’s unknown if there might be an expanded tour over the summer similar to the “American Idol” tour.
May 18 – Phoenix, AZ Dodge Theatre
May 20 – Los Angeles, CA Gibson Amphitheatre
May 21 – Los Angeles, CA Gibson Amphitheatre
May 25 – Chicago, IL Rosemont Theatre
May 26 – Chicago, IL Rosemont Theatre
May 28 – New York City, NY Radio City Music Hall
May 29 – New York City, NY Radio City Music Hall
I’ve tweeted (or retweeted) these over the past few days, but wanted to include them in a post before they disappear from the side bar . . .
Kathy Najimy (Sister Act) will be the one to un-brace Betty later this season on March 24th! (Via EW.com )
In other “Betty News,” it looks like indeed it is Hilda that is getting married at the end of the season/series.
Supermodels of the world Heidi Klum and Paulina Porizkova are set to appear on “Desperate Housewives” in March, presumably as themselves as it’s part of a story with Gabby (once a model herself). (Via E! Online )
Side note with some “Runway” news. Because of the way it worked out schedule wise this season, the show is sending 10 designers to Bryant Park to showcase their works. The news broke awhile ago, Tim Gunn ended up confirming it on a video blog. However only 3 will be the finalists shown on TV and only one can win. Still, as many have complained, it takes the specialness out of the show as this is what they are all competing for, to make it to Bryant Park/Fashion Week.
SNL funny lady Molly Shannan is set to appear on “Glee!” as a new astronomy teacher Brenda Castle, who is Sue’s archnemesis! ( Via E! Online ) )
Fox has announced that it will be casting 3 roles for next season via online submissions from amateurs and professionals, ages 16-26, and yes anyone can submit an audition video!
The three lucky winners will not be revealed until the season 2 premier next fall. In the meantime, Glee is taping new episodes for the second half of season 1, set to start in April.
Today Lea Michelle (Rachel) Twittered that Indina Menzel (Elphaba in “Wicked”) has joined the show!
As of yet nobody knows what her role will be. Originally people hoped she would join as Rachel’s biological mother, as the two look so alike. Last year it was rumored she was in talks to play the coach of the rival team Vocal Adrenaline.
“Glee” just seems to be lining up the guest stars. Already confirmed are Neil Patrick Harris and Olivia Newton John. Now The New York Daily News (via the LA Times) is not only reviving the old rumor that Madonna may guest star (we already know there is a whole episode of Madonna songs coming), but that Jennifer Lopez is in the running to be a cafeteria lady on the show.
The big news to come out in the last day, aside from the Leno fiasco, is Simon Cowell announcing he’s leaving “American Idol” after this season. He’ll be working on an American version of his UK talent show “X-Factor” for Fox. What this means for “Idol” is anyones guess. I don’t think it can keep going with only one of the original judges left, but we’ll see.
There is a rumor that Simon is going to put Paula on “X Factor” as a judge, but I think it’s only a rumor.
“Glee” has been given a 2nd season already, so rejoice with song “Glee” fans!
Other page updates soon. I’ve been posting and retweeting a lot of news links too, which can be found in the side bar.
Thoughts On The Final Glee Of The Year, And For A Long Long Time!
Posted by Dustin on 12.13.2009 at 5:38 pm
So I just rewatched the mid-season finale of “Glee” again the other day in preparation for making a thoughts post on it.
Once again the totally outrageous and off-color humor made this episode. Britney saying “If sex was dating then Santana and I would be a couple” was great. However the best lines were those of the judges in the deliberation room. The blonde 4th runner up for Miss Ohio saying “Okay, I don’t know how those deaf kids got into a singing competition” and the black lady/professional cynic saying she “hadn’t been funneling money to that school for them to shake their asses like hoochey mamas!” Sooooooo good!
I did feel a little bad for Finn, that basically everyone in the club knew the truth before him. However when he up and quit the club, I stopped feeling bad for him. Punishing the rest of them for Puck and Quinn was wrong. Also I loved Puck telling Finn that he was the one stupid enough to believe the hot-tub lie. Dur!
I totally didn’t get why Shue couldn’t be and the concert, aside from it created more drama and moments between him and Emma. I know he wasn’t allowed to be their coach, but it’s a public concert and he could have been an audience member.
Discussing the show with a friend, she said the one thing she was a bit disappointed in was that everything sorta got resolved and there was nothing leaving us hanging. In a way she’s right, but there are some things to look forward to. Regionals for sure, as well as the return of Sue, who we all know wants revenge. It was great to “C” Sue go down finally.
Even though it looks like Emma and Shue have a clear path, I don’t think Terry is going anywhere. I wouldn’t put it past her to somehow really end up pregnant!
The final number of the show was great. First, the cast did a better job with the song than even Kelly Clarkson. Hey, I’m not the only one on the net to point that out! Also I loved that they did a mash-up of all their performances/choreography from the whole season during the performance. If you didn’t catch that, be sure to go back and watch the end again just for it!
Info : Please, resolve the addition below before post any new comment...
JS26 : I am going to be pissed as well if she doesn't return to wrap it up. I am not even concerned with a resolution with Alex. She needs to have a final scene with Mer and Christina.
Dustin : If there is no closure though, I'll be pissed off honestly. I don't like things left unanswered or with a crummy off screen explination.
Dustin : The story was of course unofficial and off the record, so we don't know yet if she'll return to finish the last few episodes, or if it's her decision or not.
Guest_2010 : Dustin you are wrong about Heigl... she never returned to work and is sounds like that last episode she was in a while back was her last. Which completely sucks because the story line was never finished, what a bitchy, selfish way to leave a show that made you career.
Dustin : Alex Lambert and Lilly got the Boot on Idol from what I've read on Twitter/Facebook
Dustin : Ausiello reporting Katherine Heigl will depart Greys after this seaon!
Dustin : Not sure on Idol, just got home from work LOL on Lost, I knew they would never be able to give a satisfactory answer and half the fans would be ticked
Guest_424 : who got booted on idol
Erick : Whats with Lost? After years of island hijinks they waste the final season showing us an alternate timeline? Id ont care show me the island and resolve the mile wide gaps in story and plot we have all patiently put up with and had to choke down season after season
Dustin : Put on Idol, cause nothing else is on lol. Will be interesting to see how long it takes before I'm bored
Dustin : He also wasn't eager to stay after he found out her lies about Dylan.
Dustin : She dumped him and he just left.
Guest_4467 : On desperate housewives did we ever find out what happed to katherines ex husband adam?
iwkkbeuebh : e9RDV
CGinCA : I think the character of Auggie was redeemable.... but Violet no. But I agree MP will not be back, sadly
Dustin : I agree about AI, I'm not even bothering with it till the top ten are together. I just think they have a weak bunch this year save for afew. No real competition!
Dustin : As soon as I'm done with mywork for tomoroww I'll post a few more thoughts. Really liked Parenthood, much mor drama than comedy last night.
Dustin : Thanks for the Melrose scoop. I saw Auggie left last night, but we know the other crazy girl got fired to (Simpson). I too doubt we'll see it again.
Guest_1244 : On Melrose, Michael's wife was the killer. Hope that does not spoil things too bad for anyone! I highly doubt it will be back for a second season.
Guest_4408 : Can AI be more boring???? I hope once they combine the guys and the girls things will get better.
Dustin : Actually watching MElrose, do we know who killed Syd yet? Cause I see the fired people are still on the show!
Guest_1627 : so sick of some of the 90210 story lines
Dustin : Against Idol at 8 is a bad spot, but I can't even bring myself to watch Idol right now it's so bad!
CGinCA : Going to record both 90210 and MP but I would not be surprized if both get their worst ratings ever.
Dustin : Yeah I am done with Melrose I think lol. I never caught up with it.
Annie : New 90210 tonight for those still interested
Dustin : Just finally got through Grey's, will have some short thoughts on it up
Dustin : yes there was an episode at 8 but it was a repeat. 9 was the new one. Hoping it will be on demand by tonight Otherwside I have to watch online.
Guest_142 : my grey's didn't tape either! were there two episodes?
Guest_2011 : deep end was cancelled, they called it the season finale because of wishful thinking... i dont think it will come back
Guest_2270 : I watch "The Deep End". It's very good. I would recommend it. I think it reminds me more of an Alley McBeal show than Grey's.
Dustin : I haven't. I work till 9 on Thursdays
Guest_142 : Has anyone watched that show The Deep End? I haven't but may watch it online... what did you think of it?
Dustin : Grrrr Grey's didn't tape! Ill have to watch it online. Will have lots of posts up tomorrow and this weekend. Don't forget GW/Medium finally back tomorrow!
JS26 : SWEET! Smallville has been renewed for a 10th season!!
LOL on Lost, I knew they would never be able to give a satisfactory answer and half the fans would be ticked
