´Gleekly´Dose – Summer News 2

So Glee has been in hiatus for the summer and just his week they will start work on the set for the upcoming third season. In the meantime you can get in this post to get updated in the Glee The 3D Concert Movie, the Teen Choice Awards and many more!

August 27nd:

• Glee Fashion Night Out. Take a look!
• Spoiler Alert: Sam Evans (Chord Overstreet) will be leaving McKinley High, his family moves out of state apparently to Indiana. We might be getting to know Mike Changs parents, the show is quietly casting an Asian couple (stylish wife and conservative dad) to potencially recur this season. Source
• Spoiler Alert: Kurt spends a decent portion of the season trying to convince Blaine to transfer to McKinley, since Darren Criss is now a regular in the show it’s most definitly a matter of time for him to transfer. Santana is made captain of the Cheerios, she’s got a co-captain who is not keen on sharing either. Tina is a junior however her boyfrien Mike is a senior, this might cause them some trouble. Source
• Glee’s first official Season 3 promo. Take a look!

• Chord Overstreet will guest star on The Middle, he will play a teacher. He talks about leaving Glee and what’s next for him. Read the interview here.

August 11th:

• American Dreams‘ Vanessa Lengies will play the recurring role of Sugar next season. She will be playing Sugar, a new student who is described as a cross between Molly Shannon and a New Jersey Housewife. Sugar was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and a tin ear, basically she can´t carry a tune to save her life. Source
• Friday Night Lights´LaMarcus Tinker will be joining Glee as “Bubba“, a massive lineman for McKinley Titans and a love interest for Mercedes. EP Brad Falchuk said at Comic Con that “He’s this Big Bubba kind of guy and he encourages her to want more for herself,” “That drives her arc into the next half of the season.” Source

August 8th:

• Congratulations to Glee for winning best TV Comedy, Cory Monteith for winning favorite male star and Darren Criss for winning breakout star at the Teen Choice Awards.
• Glee 3D Concert Movie interviews with the cast.




• This is old news but still in case you didn’t know Jane Lynch will be hosting the 63rd annual Primetime Emmy Awards.

• Here is EW open letter to Glee. Read it is pretty interesting.
• Many of you know about the Glee controversy that came after Ryan Murphy told The Hollywood Reporter that Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Chris Colfer will be graduating on Season 3 and not be returning on Season 4. Then it appears that the cast was caught by surprise by this anouncement (as were many of us). Then on Comic Con Glee’s EPs clarify that they were not leaving the show even after they graduated (they have a 7 year contract). Then Ryan Murphy said in another interview that they were planning a spinoff for this 3 characters but could not release information at the time and that the cast was well aware of this. In the same interview he said that the spinoff was not going to happen now. I honestly got a bit tired of all this drama behind the scenes, I really hope that it won’t be awkward on set and that the show can deliver a good season (because for many fans, season 2 was not nearly as good as the first one). Anyway, whatever happens happens. On Glee we pretty much are never sure about anything until we see it on our TVs. We just hope for a great season and for the cast leaving the show after this season we wish them all the best.
