GLEE is back! With a bevy of big Broadway anthems in tow - including HAIRSPRAY'S "You Can't Stop The Beat", ANNIE GET YOUR GUN'S "Anything You Can Do", the Barbra Streisand version of "Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead" from THE WIZARD OF OZ by Harold Arlen, and, a song culled from a show currently in a hit revival playing eight times a week on Broadway, Cole Porter's title song from ANYTHING GOES - last night's GLEE was a Broadway baby's perfect first day back to school. If all of that wasn't enough, Darren Criss even got a chance to tear up a jive-talkin' Tom Jones hit, "It's Not Unusual"! The musical quotient was exceedingly satisfying, without a doubt, yet what about the rest of the night's proceedings? Will Season Three and the final season for a handful of New Directions' best assets - and two of the show's finest performers, Lea Michele and Chris Colfer - spell disaster come this time next Fall? What do Ryan Murphy and co. have up their sleeves to satiate the situation and appease the fans, and, furthermore, will they make right on their promise to bring the main players into even sharper focus this season? While we still have more than twenty episodes to find out, the kick-off episode, "The Purple Piano Project", came through in a rainbow of colors on its promise. The long-awaited return of Idina Menzel as Rachel Berry's absentee mom next week, in a season-long arc, will only up the ante and make GLEE an even more winning bet than it already is, even just judging from the fun and touching premiere ep!

It's back to school time, Gleeks! Welcome to another year at McKinley High School - full of songs, drama, and more! Grab a slushie and prepare your best sixteen bars - school and glee club are back in session. School has begun again at McKinley and Jacob Ben Israel is at it again - grilling the glee clubbers about where they stand - some have one more year, some have big dreams, but Finn has no idea what he wants. Unlike Rachel and Kurt, who seem to know exactly where they're going - Finn is struggling to find where he wants to go and be once high school is over. When Ms. Pillsbury informs Rachel and Kurt that their dream school of Julliard doesn't have musical theater, the diva duos begin to look at new options. During a coffee date, Kurt attempts to sway Blaine to join him at McKinley, but the Warbler is still reluctant.
