Alright I'll admit it, I'm a huge Glee fan! I was reluctant to watch the show because I figured it'd have this cheesy "show choir" feel to it, but I ended up falling in love with the show. It's funny and the songs are great. Listen to the Glee cast's version of "Don't Stop Believin" (originally sung by Journey) and "Somebody to Love" (originally sung by The Beatles) and you too will be hooked. Not to mention, there's a whole lot of drama! Teen romance, teen pregnancy, teacher romances, a wife pretending to be pregnant (her husband actually believes it), and a crazy cheer coach (Jane Lynch) who happens to be hilarious.
Today the cast drew a large crowd at the Paley Fest to answer questions and talk about the upcoming remainder of the season (Part 2 airs April 13th). They had a lot of interesting things to say. New guest stars will appear on the show from Idina Menzel and Kristen Chenowith to Neil Patrick Harris. Series creator Ryan Murphy said even Julia Roberts would love to be a guest star down the line.
There will also be more songs in the upcoming episode. Says Murphy, "We've gone from three or four [songs], to between six and eight [per episode] on an average. We just have a lot more music and a lot more comedy. And more Jane Lynch."
I think everyone should give this show a try. The first part of Season 1 is available on dvd (which is how I first watched the show). It is very addicting; I finished it in just a few days! I am thinking it will only get better come April 13th
Below is Don't Stop Believin, the song that put the show on the map and put the song on top of the music charts.

I also love GLEE ... High School musical for grown-ups!
