Glee on after Idol tonight...

    So Fox is showing the new show Glee after AI tonight.

    Glee is an musical comedy television series that will air on Fox. It focuses on a high school glee club.
    Will Schuester, an optimistic teacher, tries to reinvent the high school's glee club.

    The series will have covers of many different songs sung on-screen by the characters. Among the songs featured in the extended trailer are "Respect" (sung by Amber Riley), "I Kissed a Girl" (sung by Jenna Ushkowitz), "On My Own" from Les Misérables (sung by Lea Michele), "Can't Fight This Feeling" (sung a capella by Cory Monteith), "You're the One That I Want" (sung by the entire glee club), "Rehab" (sung by a rival glee club), and, most notably "Don't Stop Believing" (sung by the glee club). It was recently announced that the night of each airing, the songs will be made available on iTunes starting on May 19, 2009, with full versions of "Rehab" and "Don't Stop Believing".

    Among the future songs that will be heard include "Bust Your Windows," which will be sung in a fantasy sequence by Riley, and Kristin Chenoweth will sing "Maybe This Time" from Cabaret and "Last Name".


    I'm definitely excited for this. With the great songs they sing: Respect, I Kissed a Girl, You're the One That I Want, Don't Stop Believing, REHAB!, and BUST YO WINDOWS! especially. I can't wait to see the power of great singers in a high school (that isn't High School Musical!). If the show goes well tonight (Which hopefully it will!), Fox has it on their Fall 09 Schedule. Woot!
    Am I just a freak, or is anyone else excited?

    Unless this turns out to be one of those FOX shows with so much hype that will only last a few episodes.

    Anyone remember "Skin", supposedly the next great Fox show.

    Commercials after commercials after commercials hyping this show and it lasts only 3 episodes.

    Somethings tells me that Glee might end up in the same category as "Skin".

    Although, who knows. Maybe Jane Lynch can carry the show, she's one hilarious lady.

    I like the ads but I'm not sure that airing an episode now and then waiting until months to air the next, is such a brilliant marketing campaign.

    Well I think they wanted the big lead-in after Idol to give it ratings so it doesn't become another skin... And the theme goes along with AI.

    yea I've been waiting for this to come on since they first started advertising it. It looks like a really good show, IMO.

    Entertainment Weekly even gave it an A, which is saying something, because they usually shit on new stuff like that.

    Well they also gave "Skin" an A as well and that highly touted and advertised show lasted only 3 episodes so we'll just see where this one goes.

    If I can remember correctly they used "The OC" to pimp out "Skin" just like they hope an American Idol audience will watch "Glee".

    All those commercials and advertisements didn't help "Skin" and I have a feeling they won't help "Glee" watchers either.
