So guys it is time to get this cheerios outfits out of the cupboards and prepared to be Slushied. Yes! Tonight is the UK season premier of Glee (and only two days after the states too) So this blog is to celebrate all things Glee.
So with the finale of the Glee Project only being aired a week ago here, it leaves us little time to speculate over who or what the characters will be, but I have exclusive gossip about this so hold onto your hats fellow gleeks.
Damian will be the first of the winners to debut on the show. We hear he'll be making his grand entrance around episode four, while co-winner Samuel won't show up until episode nine. As for Damian, he'll be playing the part of Rory, a foreign exchange student who moves in with Brittany's family. A rumour that is running about is that Brittany will believe that Rory is a leprechaun. Samuel Larso
n however, won't be arriving until mid-season, most likely in the ninth episode. This puts a stop to my theory that he's going to be Quinn's new summer fling from Bible Camp, but given Ryan Murphy's desire to have an alternative Christian character, I'm sure Samuel will be singing for the Lord in the second half of Glee season 3.
Glee will develop into "more surreal and hilarious" plot-lines in Season 3, as the show's producer expressed disbelief at unfounded support for recent episodes such as "A Night of Neglect" and "Funeral".
Will and Emma will be getting hot action according to Brad but will beginning the series single.
This year, the thing that’s different is we’re doing a lot of stories with characters that people love but don’t know a lot about. There will always be huge stories with Lea. There will always be huge storylines with Chris Colfer. But like I want to know more about Tina and Mike and Mercedes.
There is supposedly a great storyline planned for Sue which will involve the Glee Project winner who will become the person Sue has hated the most in the entire history of her life.
Idina Menzel will pop up in the second episode of the season as a new teacher. She's bringing with her some emotional baggage for both Quinn and Rachel, the latter of which we've learned has a duet coming up that will be super emotional. Lea Michelle said "We left on a touchy note, but they have a great relationship and I think – from what I’ve heard from Ryan Murphy I’m going to be working with her a lot in a very positive way. As her mother, she’s going to help Rachel a lot this year … They've already done a fabulous duet that if you’re a crier, get the tissues out because I bawled the entire time. I know we have some great story lines together.” As for Quinn, the arrival of Shelby Corcoran opens up two old wounds: giving up her daughter and giving up on her baby daddy, Puck. We sense a lot of Quick scenes coming your way early on in the season. Also, though she hasn't been spotted back in a Cheerios uniform yet, we also hear Quinn will be back playing for Team Sue in a special way. Jane Lynch teased: “Quinn is having an identity crisis and I get her to go to the dark side for a little while."
Finn/Rachel will continue into season 3 as a couple.
It has been confirmed that a 2 hour made-for-television movie will occur during season 3. This will be the only tribute episode of the season. While it has not been confirmed, possible candidates for the tribute episode include Maroon 5, ABBA, and the Beatles.
Santana's coming out storyline will continue. Ryan Murphy stated that "I do think it's sort of unreasonable to think the world treats gay people like they do with Kurt, where his father embraces him and his classmates all embrace him. He was bullied, yes, but for the most part he is allowed to be free and wonderful in the world and that doesn't happen to everybody who is gay." So I am assuming that Santana's parents are not so welcoming with the news.
The Glee bosses revealed at Paleyfest that they are thinking about doing an episode where everyone sings their lines of dialogue.
Quinn might have a new romance this season.
Sue wont be friendly for long. She will eventually try to destroy the Glee Club again.
Ian Brennan said that we will see more of the McKinley hockey team and that they will explore in-depth the phenomenon that is Ohio hockey.
Cory Monteith gave a few hints at what the big story lines will be in Glee's third season. "There's gonna be a lot of transitions happening," he admits. "Rachel's eyes are very much set on New York when we leave season two and Finn is very interested in rebuilding a relationship with her. It's gonna be those challenges - does she go to New York? Does she stay? That's what season three is gonna be all about."
"I think it's going to be interesting to see Mr Schuester's role - whether he pursues his Broadway dream or whether he stays at McKinley High."
Ian Brennan said that season 4 will not be an entirely new cast (he can't remember who's a junior or a senior in season 3) but we will definitely see Emma, Will, Sue, and possibly Brittany because she might have trouble graduating.
Dave and Santana also have some "mileage" in their story lines.
Sue has been confirmed to be running for congress.
The theme of the season is 'Goodbyes' and that New Directions is 'going their own separate ways'.
Chris Colfer is campaigning madly for one storyline in particular. It involves Blaine. It is rumoured that this storyline involves Kurt having sex with Blaine for the first time.
Quinn, Puck, Rachel and Finn will be graduating this season.Source Ian is considering introducing 'Internationals' this series. He wants it to be set in Paris. Source Story-lines are getting a new format. Instead of lasting a single episode, stories will be told in a SERIAL format.
So Gleeks, what do you think? Are you excited for the next season? I know I am!
