There is so much to say about tonight’s Glee on Fox at 9p, but the first thing I will say about it is that it is a truly wonderful episode that will leave you feeling really good!!! Tonight’s episode has so much heart, that it will break your heart and then be fill it with warmth. You are going to see a whole new side to some of the characters on the show and you will never be able to look at them the same way! And most importantly the music is really good tonight, they sing Billy Idol’s Dancing with Myself, Wicked’s Defying Gravity and Ike and Tina Turner’s Proud Mary!
Tonight’s episode deals with the Glee club members learning what Artie goes through by being confined to his Wheels and it is was really well written and handled with care. But that is not the only touching story on tonight’s episode, Kurt and his dad have some beyond touching scenes together that will have you screaming for Mike O’Malley to get an Emmy for his performance. But the one story you won’t see coming is the one with Sue Sylvester and you will see her in a completely different light. As touching as tonight’s episode is, it will not make you cry, but believe me it will touch all of your heartstrings.
Part of the reason why I am so vague on this review because it really is an episode you need to experience because it is just that awesome! This is what TV should be. So if you have never seen Glee before tonight on Fox at 9p, tonight’s is really good one to start with it. If you have seen this show before, tonight will confirm why you have been watching it all along. I hope the other networks are watching Glee and looking to copy its model for next year because we need more shows like it on TV!!!
Whether you have been watching Glee since day one or you have never seen an episode (What is wrong with you that you missing the best new show in a really long time), Glee: The Music, Volume 1 is the must have CD! Not only will it become your latest must replay addiction, but it is also a great stocking stuffer. So stock up on it tomorrow when it comes out for you, your friends, your family and anyone else you need to give a present to this holiday season!
There is at least one song on it for everyone and let’s be honest there is more than one tune that anyone can enjoy. As soon as I got the CD, I put it in my stereo and I haven’t stopped listening to it. I think I am going to wear out Maybe This Time with Kristin Chenoweth on my CD before tomorrow. I know I am not the only who loves the music from Glee because since it debuted in May over 2 million people have downloaded at least one song from the hugely successful show and their first hit Don’t Stop Believin’ just went Gold with over 500,000 downloads. Extremely impressive!
So what Gleeified songs are on Glee: The Music, Volume 1
1. “Don’t Stop Believin’â€
2. “Can’t Fight This Feelingâ€
3. “Gold Diggerâ€
4. “Take a Bowâ€
5. “Bust Your Windowsâ€
6. “Taking Chancesâ€
7. “Aloneâ€
8. “Maybe This Timeâ€
9. “Somebody to Loveâ€
10. “Hate On Meâ€
11. “No Airâ€
12. “You Keep Me Hangin’ Onâ€
13. “Keep Holding Onâ€
14. “Bust a Moveâ€
15. “Sweet Carolineâ€
16. “Dancing with Myselfâ€
17. “Defying Gravityâ€
The last two songs are on next Wednesday’s (11/11) episode Wheels and it is another must not miss episode with some new people having well earned and sung solos!!!
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.
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.

Before Cory Monteith was singing and dancing on Glee, he gave us something to be GLEEful about in Bloody Mary. How nice was it to see the 23 year old naked in that 2006 horror movie!
