Before Mark Salling was a one of the children of Glee, he was one of the Children of the Corn: The Gathering. Without the mohawk, you can barely recognize the 13 year old in that 1996 movie but the eyes and nose give him away.
Scott Reeves is returning to soaps as Steven Lars Webber on General Hospital. He told TV Guide that he was ready to return to TV and GH was his first choice because he is BFFs with Steve Burton who plays Jason Morgan. He will join the show in December, “as the hospital’s new chief of staff and be thrown into a storyline involving his half-sister Liz (Rebecca Herbst) and the two men in her life, Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) and Nikolas (Tyler Christopher).” At this point he is only recurring.
Scott left The Young and The Restless to move to Nashville for a music career a few years ago with his wife, Melissa Reeves. Now that he is back in LA, I really hope that Melissa rejoins Days of our Lives as Jennifer. I so miss her and Metthew Ashford on the show.
The good news is that Melrose Place was picked up for 5 more episodes, the bad news is not everyone will be part of those additional episodes. EW’s Michael Ausiello broke the news that Ashlee Simpson and Colin Egglesfield will be looking for a new address in January when we find out who killed Sydney. The show’s executive producers Todd Slavkin and Darren Swimmer told him that both actors were always expected to leave the show after Sydney’s murder was solved. Well now with their departures we know who killed her, kind of spoiled the next few episodes. But at least we have Heather Locklear to look forward to and they said she is in all the upcoming episodes! She will also be getting a lover played by Billy Campbell and he is not the only new character coming to the show. They will be adding some new residents to fill the vacancies that were left by Ashlee and Colin. Now back to them, I am so sad that Colin is leaving the show because I really liked him but they never really utilized him so it makes sense. When it comes to Ashlee, I am so glad she is gone. OMG her acting and storylines made me want to change the channel every time she was on. Oh and I don’t buy that both of them were always expected to leave the show, do you?
So last night on Fox’s Glee Puck (Mark Salling) sang Neil Diamond’s Sweet Caroline and most of the time you never hear what the artist thought of getting the Glee treatment.
Well last night after the show Neil Diamond Tweeted, “Hey, so who’s this guy Puck singing “Sweet Caroline” so good,so good,so good on #Glee? Loved it!!” OMG how awesome is it that not only did he watch Glee, but he Tweeted how much he loved Puck singing it. Who knew Neil Diamond was so hip? I love him even more and I am sure Mark Salling’s mom loves him even more than I do.
Because before the show Mark Salling Tweeted, “Everyone watch glee tonight, I’ll be performing a song by my moms favorite artist and no I will not be taking off my shirt” and afterwards he took to Twitter to add, “hey guys, thanks for the love, im not really sure whats going on right now but my mom is stoked so that makes me happy.” I wonder if his mom and him know that Neil Diamond gave him the big thumbs up for singing the song? I am sure she will be beyond excited, maybe her son can get her autograph now or something more. After all we learned yesterday he is a good Jewish son. Seriously who saw that coming? Oy!!!
BTW I just had to post this because Glee is like the cutest show on TV and even off-camera things that happen to them is so awwwdorable!!!
Now I just have to deal with the fact they won’t get a new episode of Glee until November 11th.

WTF happened to Billy Bob Thornton? I had to check the caption to realize that was him. The first big difference I noticed was that he washed away the grey, but what’s up with face? Maybe because he got rid of that goatee, but there is just something so different about it. Can you figure out what has changed about him?
