GLEE Takes Post-Super Bowl Time Slot 2/6/11

Deadline.com is reporting that Fox's smash hit series, GLEE, has landed the highly coveted post-Super Bowl air slot on February 6. The show, which is presently working toward the end of its critically acclaimed first season, currently airs after American Idol and is expected to receive a similar ratings boost the night of the singing competition's finale. GLEE will move from its 9PM Tuesday time to 8PM in the fall, and will go back to its original Wednesday 9PM slot midseason.

GLEE follows an optimistic teacher who - against all odds and a malicious cheerleading coach - inspires McKinley High's Glee Club to conquer the world one singing competition at a time. GLEE stars Dianna Agron, Chris Colfer, Jessalyn Gilsig, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Matthew Morrison, Amber Riley, Mark Salling and Jenna Ushkowitz.

GLEE is produced by Ryan Murphy Television in association with 20th Century Fox Television. Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan are co-creators of the series. Murphy, Falchuk and Dante di Loreto serve as executive producers, while Ian Brennan serves as co-executive producer.

GLEE currently airs Tuesday nights at 9:00-10:00PM ET/PT.
