It's been WAY too long since Glee had its fall finale, and while it seemed like April was so far away (new episodes come back on April 17th) we're about a month away, HOORAH!!!! The cast of Glee has been everywhere in the news, from their concert tour in May being sold out (see you there!), to being invited to the White House next month, to their upcoming Oprah appearance. YAYY!
Spoiler Alert: The folks at NY Mag have put together all the spoilers that have been all over the place. Read at your own risk, but be prepared to hear about lots of cool guest stars and musical numbers. It's gonna be so great! And click below for the new preview for the remaining episodes. Is it April yet??

2009 Entertainers of the Year: #5 and #4!
Last year, I created a list of my top 5 entertainers of 2008, and this year, I'm doing the same for the year 2009. I know we only have 4 more days left before the year's end, so before the week's end, I will post the 5 entertainers who have made their mark in pop culture. Last year's #5 went to Robert Downey Jr., and this year it is...
#5) The Glee cast.
No other tv show this season, new or returning, had as much buzz around it as the dramedy musical Glee. FOX took a chance on this one-of-a-kind show, and it paid off. While it is not a ratings juggernaut, it does average a healthy 8 million viewers a week, and the songs performed on the show are consistently in the top 25 iTunes songs chart. Sold out mall tours, the cast singing the National Anthem at the World Series, succeessful release of 2 soundtracks-- the show is heading strong into the new year, having been picked up for the rest of the season, no problem. Funny, smart, full of heart, and of course, those musical numbers! Such entertaining stuff. Though the show will not be returning until April 2010, we have plenty to tide us over (seriously, buy/download the soundtracks, STAT) as well as looking forward to the rest of the season when it does return (more musical numbers per episode! a Madonna-centric episode! surprise guest stars!). If the Glee phenomenon keeps going the way it has been, I would not be surprised to see them on this list again next year.
#4) Sandra Bullock
Like last year's #4 Britney Spears, Sandra Bullock had hell of a comeback this year. Ok, so she never really went away anywhere to have a comeback, but she basically solidified her place as a money-making leading lady with 2 big successful films this year. In the summer she starred in a romantic comedy called The Proposal, which surpassed everyone's expectations by bringing in over $300 million worldwide. Her latest effort, The Blind Side, is already on its way to raking over $200 million at the box office. Not only has she proven to be bankable, but she has just been nominated for 2 Golden Globes for each of the movies, and she's been steadily garnering Oscar buzz for the Blind Side. Not bad for an actress in her mid-40s, right? And a consistently working one at that! I personally really love her, so I'm super glad for all of the success she has had this year.

Another Reason To Love Glee
Glee is on hiatus till April 10, 2010. Yup .. 4 months away.
But just in case you're scared of Glee withdrawal, there's been a bunch of survival guides for the next looong 4 months .. this little gem popped up on the interwebs - Mark Salling (who plays Noah "Puck" Puckerman) made a little music video tribute for his Glee family and it's soo disgustingly sweet that Sue Sylvester might start throwing up rainbows and unicorns.

Why I Love TV: Glee
If you haven't heard, Glee is freaking awesome. The pilot episode premiered right after American Idol a few weeks back .. yeah, it was some time ago, but I don't watch American Idol, okay??
Anyway, Glee is a new comedy on Fox that focuses around a high school glee club. Sound familiar? Well, it's not. And they have a bitchin' performance of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" (yes, it's on iTunes, too).
The series has a strong cast of some familiar Broadway faces, as well as upcoming guest stars lined up. But Fox was being tricky and chose to premiere the pilot now, and continue the season later in the fall.
Check out the pilot episode:
And see the what the season will have in store for us .. coming soon in the fall!
