Glee was a groundbreaking, loved show that took the world by storm. But then it went from luster to lackluster. And that is not even mentioning the stars’ private lives, which were full of scandals, and several young cast members are no longer with us.
It was a special show, and it had its moment in time. I think that it should stay in that moment in time because its magic cannot be replicated. The magic is gone. Or is it?
Entertainment Tonight asked the show’s creator, Ryan Murphy, if he would ever revisit the musical comedy. “Well, funny you ask, cause I just finished the script an hour ago,” the producer told her. “So, yeah, we have a script. Brad [Falchuk], Ian [Brennan], and I, who wrote all the first two seasons, have written something. I’ve been in touch with around 10 of the original cast members. It’s very sweet. You know, they all had a lot of questions, but they all were very enthusiastic about the idea. Nobody has read it. I don’t know. We’ll see. I vowed to myself I wanted to write a couple of them to see what people think. Particularly the cast, because we were very close when we were making it. But I don’t know. Do you think we should make it?”
So, I ask you the question he asked the reporter: “Do you think they should make it?”
I am sure most of those 10 OGs are like, yes, because what else are they doing?
In 2009, Mike O’Malley was cast to play Chris Colfer’s father on Glee, and the two actors still have that father/son bond.
I know that because Colfer ran into his TV dad today and was all smiles in the photo he shared of their surprise reunion. Then he wrote, “Always love running into family at the airport! @therealmikeomalley Love ya, Dad!”
How sweet is that? Just like the relationship that Kurt and Burt had on the Musical Comedy. I miss the heartwarming moments from Glee, especially the ones that they had.
It has been ten years since the fat lady sang on Glee, and now Coach Sylvester is back being mean to the students of William McKinley High School. Well, sort of.
Jane Lynch is back on Fox, but this time she is hosting Celebrity Weakest Link. In honor of her return, she brought back some old friends. And she couldn’t wait to be mean to Max Adler, Dot Marie Jones, Heather Morris, Alex Newell, Chord Overstreet, Amber Riley, Becca Tobin, and Jenna Ushkowitz.
The gym teacher turned host said to the class of 2015, “Some of us used the show as a springboard to stardom. And the rest of you are here tonight.”
That is just one of the snarky comments she makes during the ten year reunion on September 15th.
It seems like whenever we hear anything about Glee these days, it is sad news. However, we got some happy news about the high school musical series.
Max Adler, Becca Tobin, Alex Newell, Chord Overstreet, Heather Morris, Amber Riley, Dot-Marie Jones, and Jenna Ushkowitz are supporting host Jane Lynch as they play Celebrity Weakest Link.
The eight William McKinley High School graduates will compete on the September 15th season premiere on Fox.
