3.1 The Purple Piano Project

Last Week, Fox made gleekers happy!!!

The gang returned with the same agenda. Make it and win Nationals. "The kiss that missed" cannot happen again nor will it stop this gang of misfits. To encourage sign ups Mr Schue refurbished and brought in 3 purple pianos.


The challenge, whenever they see a purple piano they are suppose to break out in performance. Of course this catches the unwanted attention of Sue Sylvester. Who is one running for a Congressional Chair....of course she becomes inspired to take a stand against musical education at public schools and well once again Schuester and her are enemies.

Onto the juicy stuff. Kurk gets his boyfriend, Blaine, to leave the Werbols and join New Directions. And this leads to jealous in Finn. Why?

Let's face it Blaine is talented, and has the stage presence to pull off Lead Male in the glee club. Finn is not a complete idiot. Now while the gang has gained a member they also loose a member due to unloyalty. Santana follows Sue order to destroy the purple pianos and as a result Mr Schue, has had enough and dismisses her from the club.


He also faces his own struggle turning away a truly horrible student. So the club is still down three, they've lost Zezis, Sam and Quinn. Quinn has had a complete makeover and hangs with the skanks. Let's just say she's gone to a dark place where singing is not a priority.


Finally, after seeing the glory of NY Kurt and Rachel can't wait to live out their dreams and have cocked a plan to go to Julliard together and live in the Big City. The only problem is that Julliard doesnt have a Musical Theatre program. But that doesn't stop them with the help of Emma Pilsbury, now Mr Schue's live in girlfriend!!--they find another school with a great program and decide to get to work and meet the competition. Which turns out to identical to them and have way more experiences in theatre.

At first they are stopped dead in their tracks but with some pep talk and never say die attitude, they decide to work even harder and Kurt is running for Junior Class President. The club also decides to put on a family friendly musical--West Side Story.

This year should be an interesting one. Also--speaking of class standings, this is the last year for many of the glee kids. So who are the seniors? We've got the recently transferred Blaine; Santana and Brittany (maybe); Popular, then Pregnant to Punk Quinn; Adorable Mike Chang. Utterly lost Finn and the over-achieving Rachel who has the perfect plan for her future.






Competition, Relationships and Hilarity what more could a fan ask for....

HYIMYM Premieres

For all you readers out there, yup I'm referring to our 3 followers (thanks guys), for warning there may be spoilers but that shouldnt be a problem cause I myself can't even watch them when they air.

On to the good stuff
So what happened when Ted, Barney, Lily, Marshall and Robin returned to our television sets?

It starts with a wedding, well actually it starts with a warning that the story is far from over. This season viewers can tell is going to be about Barney's journey to the aisle. While the show may have started out with Ted sharing his search for love, viewers have come to love the womanizing side-show that Neil Patrick Harris performs oh so well. NPH is a star, his comicly entertaining and it we had a great glimpes of "relationship Barney" when he and Robin were involved.

When the season returns, feelings and secrets are revealed at Punchy's wedding. The gang finds out that Lily is preggers and Robin reveals that she still has feelings for Barney and wants a second chance with him. Unfortunately she finds out that her timing is way off and he has initiated phone calls with Nora. The first half ends with Marshall ruining a wedding and Ted declaring that he is going to start looking for love again.

In the second half of the premiere, Marshall makes a declaration that he is not going to drink ever again. The funny thing about the human condition is that, as soon as we make a promise or take on a challenge to change our ways, it becomes that much harder and well even though he ends up streaking naked at the age of 33 around NY city, he stills ends up landing a job doing what he'll love.

Barney accepts Nora challenge to never lie to her again, even when she asks him about all the ways he has lied to get a girl to sleep with him. Of course this leads to her forming a more distasteful opinion of Barney and she leaves. But before she exits, Barney tells her that he will not leave the all night diner until she gives him a second date. In the end, Nora can't resist her feelings for him and gives him yet another chance.



The most exciting revelation of the season premiere by far is that "Cupcake Girl," aka Victoria is back. For those of you who don't know or remember her, she was the girl that helped Ted move on from Robin for a while. She can be categorized as the one that got away. Victoria is this adorable baker but she got a Fellowship in Germany and had to leave. While Ted and her tried a long distance relationship--it didn't turn out too well. At the end of the first season he lies to Robin about breaking up with her and cheats on Victoria along with losing Robin's trust.
I guess the real question is, is she the one? Most likely not but I can't wait to see what happens between her and Ted this time around.

GG's Fall TV Schedule

Hey guess who's back, participating with the team!

Yup it's GG, and my apologies but Grad school can be a quelcher of time

Anywho, why am I back at my keyboard?
This week is the second week of premiers, technically, but this is when Fall TV dramas, comedies and new series start peeking out their yellowed eyes from hidden caves.

Up first, tonight How I Met Your Mother, tonight on CBS at 8. All the fans are dying know how Barney is transformed and who is ends up marrying? Will it be Nora, the cute British and extremely forgiving girl, or Robyn whom we all know of love, despite her gun toting ways. Or possibly someone new?


The Dunphees are back on Wednesday. Modern Family airs on ABC at 9. They will be vying for American eyeballs all over the country with the cast of gLee! I am super excited for gLee, even though golden locks Sam is not returning for us to see the romantic endeavours between him and Mercedes. But don't fret Mercedes still has a r omantic interest this Wednesday night. Another great thing to look forward to is the gLee Project winners! I am soooooo excited for Colin and Sam, I cannot wait to see what roles the writers come up with for them.

On Thursday viewers can look forward to The Office and finding out who the new boss will be. Creed will end up burning down the building if he is in power for too long. Plus we always have sweet, ever cute Jam!

Of course that's not all I'll be watching. There are a couple of new series I am interested in this fall.

Revenge and Once Upon a Time have caught my eyes. Their advertisers can give themselves a pat on the back. I'm a sucker for drama, mystery and fairy tales. That last one Disney can take all the credit, all that I have my bitter moments, way deep down I'm a sucker for happy endings.

Revenge airs this Wednesday night, (I'll be doing a lot of cyber watching). And Once Upon a Time doesn't air until October 23rd. Speaking of premiers in the distant future. Returning this fall for a seventh season is Bones.

Unfortunately we'll have to wait til November to see all the new hurtles Booth and Bones have to overcome as a couple, parents and partners! It should be an interesting season. Congrats to Emily Deschancel for her real life pregnancy--it's worth waiting a couple extra months. Anxiously awaiting November 3

Psych returns October 12, and man I sooooo miss my Shawn and Gus with all their hijinks and humorous ways. They are such characters.

Chuck comes back for it's fifth and final season, October 21. I am glad to for the closure we'll recieve but I will certainly miss Zach and his weekly appearances on my television. I do have to say that I am quite worried even a little frightened to see what occurs with Morgan as the intersect, but we'll be getting a close up view into Chuck's struggles with starting his own business and Casey will finally get some love :P
