My premature forecast for ‘The Glee Project’

It’s no secret that I’ve been following ‘Glee’, therefore, I’ve obligated myself to finding out its next cast member (at least for seven episodes) by tuning into the ‘The Glee Project.’

The show started with 12 youngsters all vying for a chance to be on Glee. So far, seven down and five remain -- Alex Newell, Damian McGinty, Hannah McIalwain, Lindsay Pearce and Samuel Larsen. The last casualty on the show, the conservative Cameron Mitchell, left voluntarily because of last week’s theme which centers on sexuality. And Cameron's decision somewhat rocked the Glee universe because it led to the  extension of supposed-to-be-ousted Damien’s stay on ‘The Glee Project.’

Glee's 2nd season lives up to expectations

The award-winning TV series Glee returns to Philippine TV and I barely got to see it. ARGH!!!

Don’t get me wrong, unlike other Pinoy Glee fans, I’m not in it for Charice Pempengco. I’ve been watching Glee even before the talented Filipina became part of the musical-comedy’s cast, thanks in part to Naya Rivera.

Cheerleaders aside, Glee’s tunes are so catchy and ear-friendly (with emphasis on New Directions rendition of Madonna and Journey songs) no one can blame you if you start turning into a Gleek yourself.

Moving on to the new season, I can only provide my insights to parts of the show I actually saw. But before I start babbling, here’s a quick recap of the 1st episode of season 2 (SPOILER ALERT…for the uninitiated).
