Matthew is hott!

[LoveStoned123]

haha damn how'd i forget about him!?

[bostonboy20]

what are those Matthew Morrison pics from?

I enjoyed Mr. Justin Gaston shirtless in the locker room.

[Blueboy369]

Loving this show....and the Boy Candy!

[sdrival]

The Matthew Morrison pictures are from the last Broadway Bares strip show in New York. It's a charity event.

[gmoney]

I watched and liked the show. And yes, Matthew is hot!!

[UrPQ32]

Just hulu'd it.....I'd been meaning to catch it yesterday but forgot.

So far, so good!

And yes, the eye candy is a bonus


so wait.....is Matthew gay?

[sdrival]

No. I know he was dating Amanda Freed in 2005. I dunno if he still is. There's just a lot of gay Broadway chorus boys in the Broadway Bares shows.

[grantt]

The show has possibilities even if the premise is far fetched. Plenty of eye candy in this one, boys. Some great voices, assuming they belong to the actors. I hope the evolution is positive.

[bwaystar99]

Aw I love this show, it's cute

[954dude]

Cant believe I missed the show. I'll be watching it on Fox.com

[Remote Control]

The show seemed interesting and want to see where it goes in the fall.

You can download the pilot episode at Itunes for free.

I did'nt watch "GLEE",but what I do know is it premiered last night,yet it won't be on as a weekly series until August or September 2009.

[agaymale]

It was just ok. I think it will keep it's ratings ups, but I don't see it lasting longer than maybe four seasons if even that.

[ez026zj]

I liked it a lot! And the cast is pretty great overall for network TV.

I gotta say, I'm a little skeptical about the casting of the main jock guy. 1) I don't find him very cute, 2) I'm not impressed by his singing. Sure, it's realistic for high school (his singing, not some of those others - wow!), but with the legions of young unknowns, I'm sure they could've found as capable an actor with more looks and better vocals. He's pretty similar to the Election jock played by Chris Klein, not just in that "kinda slow but affectionate and caring" personality, but I think they've got a similar look (fair perfect complexions).

Jayma Mays, and COACH SUE!!!, both great of course. Lea Michele is outstanding and we're gonna see a lot more of her.

OK SO WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH THE PICTURES OF THE SPANISH TEACHER ABOVE?? I hadn't seen him in anything before, and didn't expect to see pics of him like THOSE!

[soccerkid90]

AMAZING SHOW. Cory Monteith is GORGEOUSSS

[sdrival]

OK SO WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH THE PICTURES OF THE SPANISH TEACHER ABOVE?? I hadn't seen him in anything before, and didn't expect to see pics of him like THOSE!

He's already an established actor in New York and on Broadway. This is just his first major television role. That's why you've never heard of him. Or, rather his second. He was in 17 episodes of As the World Turns.

[audancerboy]

I loved the premiere, and I am going to continue watching. And not just because I think Cory Monteith is hot.

[skeemer1524]

I'm already addicted! Cory Monteith is absolutely adorable.

[soccerkid90]

I've watched the last scene 10+ times, I find Cory sosososo cute. He's not gorgeous, his character just makes him absolutely irresistible.

[jcojax78]

I thought it was a great show! I hope they are able to keep this one going.

[FirmaFan]

I watched Glee and, while I found most of the actors quite cute, I couldn't help but recognize that all the plot lines and jokes were just taken from other movies and TV shows. The pilot started out with "Superbad" (down to the music!) while showing Jane Lynch reprising her character from Role Models. It then moved on to "Election", where each character gets their own voice over and the devote teacher proclaiming his love for teaching while attempting to get the jock into an unnatural school organization which happens to be composed of a Tracy Flick equivalent who talks about her gay dads and how they impregnated a surrogate with both their sperm at once to conceal the identity of the real father despite the fact that one is black and one is white, much like the clever joke first made in "Arrested Development". From there we get a feel for the camera work of "The Office" despite the show not being filmed in a documentary style except for where a sign posted in the teachers office contradicts his actions when blackmailing the jock to join the glee club, where his extreme talent (and ultimate enjoyment) of singing puts him at odds with his jock friends, a suspiciously familiar formula to that of every "High School Musical" movie. Maybe watching too many movies and TV shows has become bad for me as it ruins any show unoriginal enough to incorporate jokes and plot lines from many other sources.

[braex27]

I liked the show - really interesting concept - a musical TV show - and the characters are all likable.

The girl who plays Rachel reminds me of Idina Menzel.

[SFLMAN]

I enjoyed the show a lot! Hope it remains on the air for several seasons. The guys are hot! they look much older than high school kids. I liked the finale with the Journey song. Finally something decent on TV to watch, on Fox, nonetheless and it's not a reality show.
I'd like to see more regular shows, less reality shows. The reality shows I'm sure are cheaper to produce, but enough already. Mostly stupid dumb reality shows. And they're not reality and they're edited.
Good luck to Glee and if you liked the preview watch it in the Fall on Fox TV so it doesn't get cancelled!

[SFLMAN]

Does anyone have the Justin Gaston pic of him shirtless from the pilot episode of Glee? Please post if you do.

[Guy_Gardner]

I thought it was a good episode...can't believe they're holding out on it til the fall...this would have a great companion show to So You Think You Can Dance?....after hearing "Rehab"...I was hooked......and I just have to see why the hell they were singing Goldigger

[Sammie13]

Actually, this fall Glee will be televised on Wednesdays at 9pm, following "So You Think You Can Dance".

In regards to the real-life ages of the cast as mentioned earlier, it is indeed odd that the teacher, played by Matthew Morrison is only 3 years older than actor Cory Monteith who plays jock/singer Finn. Morrison is 30 years old and Monteith is 27. Really, the other glee club members aren't that old -- Lea Michelle, who plays female lead Rachel, is 22. The male glee members Kurt (played by Chris Colfer) is 18 and the wheelchair-bound Anty (played by Kevin McHale) is 20.

I was thinking the same thing throughout the whole episode. She'd be a good one for Wicked some day.

I thought the show was funny and pretty strong for a pilot. Rachel did remind me of Tracy from Election, but then they added some more dimension to her character by making her someone who could be empathized with.

Am I the only one who does not find Jane Lynch funny at all? She just leaves me cold--I don't know if I've ever laughed at anything she's done. I'll find it easy to dislike her character when the show begins in the Fall.

that's good...still odd that Fox is trying to gain hype on a show they ran once on the air that isn't going to show anymore new episodes til 3 months from now...I guess they are really trying to push their website for broadcasting....good luck with that...but either people are going to forget about it...or they are going to annoy us to death with ads about how its coming out this fall (and watch the first episode again and again online)
