Apparently we’re not the only ones who are obsessed with THE VAMPIRE DIARIES. Turns out, when she’s not busy acting, singing and promoting her hit show GLEE, star Lea Michele is hooked. “Getting ready to pick Mr Groff up from the airport! Let the week of fun begin!!! But first Vampire Diaries. Why is this show SO good!” Now all that’s left is for @msleamichele to publicly proclaim her loyalty: Team Damon or Team Stefan?
Did actress Leven Rambin (TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES) just spill the beans on yet another GREY’S ANATOMY/PRIVATE PRACTICE crossover? Maybe, maybe not, but one thing’s for sure: According to this tweet, the actress, who is on the set of GREY’S ANATOMY as we tweet speak is poised to be hitting up both shows in the not-to-distant-future, “The Lord answered all your prayers! Thank you all so much! I’m going to be on Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice this season, y’all!” Hmmmm, perhaps @shondarhimes would care to shed a little light on this?

GLEE’s Jane Lynch, for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. In the hand of almost any other actor, an ultra-competitive cheerleading coach whose win-at-any-cost attitude compels her to not only separate the GLEE Club into competing factions based on the color of their skin, but ‘out’ a pregnant student’s ’secret life’ would be both horrific and offensive. Yet in the hands of Jane Lynch, it’s funny. Really funny.
MODERN FAMILY’s Ed O’Neill, for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series. Now that William Shatner is no longer eligible for his annual Emmy nod, voters are going to need another rich old white guy they can shower with praise. Enter Ed O’Neill, who in MODERN FAMILY’s fourth outing of the season continued to set the perfect tone for the craziness that goes down in the Dunphey-Pritchett abode. With bonus points for his faux outrage towards son Mitchell upon ‘discovering’ that ex-wife Dede was a surprise Sunday-night dinner guest.

Think different.
GLEE may have its fair share of criminal minds (see: Future TO CATCH A PREDATOR STAR star Sandy Ryerson), drug dealers (see: Terri Schuester’s short-lived stint as the school’s highly unqualified nurse) and blatant scene stealers (see: Guilty-as-charged Jane Lynch) — but kidding aside, there is very little law and practically no order to be found. Which is one of the primary reasons, well aside from the ludicrously talented cast, whip-smart dialogue and awe-inspiring musical numbers, why GLEE has quickly become the very definition of must see TV.
Big name actors need not apply.
While veteran stars such as Kelsey Grammer, Courteney Cox and Christian Slater may give upstart shows a leg up in terms of big headlines out of the gate, there are also big tradeoffs. For instance, the Hollywood neophytes that are were these plucked-from-obscurity Glee-clubbers have been only too willing to allow FOX to parade them to malls across both the United States and Australia to promote the show. A seemingly never-ending promotional tour we can’t imagine established actors would be all-a-twitter about (Literally, you can follow virtually the entire cast on twitter, see list) Plus, the money one saves on big name salary can be funnelled back into the production (or at the very-least carbon offsets for the midwest auto opening we hear the cast is cutting a ribbon for next week!)

“I completely understand NBC’s position, and look forward to seeing a Jay Leno float” — Said showrunner Ryan Murphy when asked by EW.com for his reaction to NBC booting the cast of GLEE from the annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
NBC was right to boot GLEE from the parade.
