Glee‘s Madonna episode just aired and a Lady Gaga episode is in the works as well, so why the hell hasn’t Britney Spears had her episode yet? Britney’s manager asked via Twitter this week, “Do you guys want to see a Britney episode of GLEE?” and ever since that bug was put in my ear, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. YES, I want a Britney episode of Glee! In fact, they should probably stop production on the Lady Gaga episode until they pay The Queen her due.

And while there’s a chance that a Britney episode may happen, I’m confused as to why the biggest pop star we’ve had in years is once again getting the shaft compared to Lady Gaga. I get that FOX needs to cash in on the Gaga craze while she’s still relevant, but she’s only had like, five singles and you know that none of those songs would have been as popular as they were if it weren’t for the music videos that went with them. Someone like Britney or Madonna has had hits that stand on their own two feet up to a decade after they were released. Let’s see if we’re bumping “Bad Romance” in 2020, OK?

I’d also like to see a Christina Aguilera and an Alanis Morissette episode of Glee, although the latter might be a little bit mature for a high school choir. If Justin Bieber gets his own episode before either one of those things go down, I’mma throw a fit.

The title isn’t entirely accurate. It’s not really Glee that’s destroying television– it’s the stupidity of network TV executives who like to jump on bandwagons faster than a Duke lacrosse team on a stripper.

The huge success of Glee has led Fox network executives to believe that a Glee-style musically themed week of programs during May sweeps would be a good idea. I was dubious about the wisdom of such a move until they announced that the dark Sci-fi action / mystery series Fringe would be one of the programs to be given the Glee musical treatment. Now I know it’s a terrible idea.

“None of us ever thought that it was really going to happen,” said musically trained co-star Jasika Nicole, who plays loyal FBI agent Astrid Farnsworth, in an interview on the show’s set in Vancouver, Canada, last week. “It was just a joke. We were like, ‘Oh, yeah, Fringe should be a musical.’ Dancing and singing and goofing off and stuff. And then John says, ‘So. you know, there’s going to be a musical episode,’ and I was like, ‘Ha, ha, John,’ and he was like, ‘No, really, have you read the script?’”

The raison d’etre for the musical numbers will be a complex hallucination by the show’s resident mentally unstable genius Walter Bishop that places all the characters in a “highly symbollic” 1940′s era musical setting. Many of the show’s cast members have musical training, but that doesn’t stop this idea from having the potential to be a huge bowl of turds. Remeber that musical episode of Buffy? Say what you want about Joss Whedon’s genius, but personally, I still haven’t forgiven the universe for that one.

The show is set to air on Fox during May sweeps.

Chris Colfer, Glee‘s Boss Bitch, was on Chelsea Lately last night discussing all things “new celebrity” and he was absolutely adorable. Of course one major topic of conversation is that Chris is an openly gay 19 year old actor, which, according to both him and Chelsea, is a lot less novel than you’d think. After Chelsea spent a moment awkwardly comforting Chris on his decision to be out by applauding his courage, Chris says, “You know what my answer was to that question prior to coming out was? I was as straight as every other actor in Hollywood.” ZING! And then Chelsea was all, “I don’t know what you’re talking about, I’ve never seen Valkyrie.”

Chris also talks about his Glee audition, dealing with paparazzi and his small hometown roots. Oh! And some LA County public school is harassing him about his daughter skipping class.

If I’m going to write 25 paragraphs about The Biggest Loser, it’s only fair I give a tiny bit of attention to one of my other favorite shows, the fabulous Glee. Here’s some sneak peeks for the coming week — looks fabulous, per usual!

“I completely understand NBC’s position, and look forward to seeing a Jay Leno float.”

- Glee creator Ryan Murphy comments on NBC having the Glee kids kicked off of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade roster.

Awwww, SNAP!

NBC, which broadcasts Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, was none too pleased when they found out that the cast of Glee, one of the Fall’s top new shows, was set to perform in the parade. Instead of working on their own programming, the network who’s dished out a handful of semi-decent and/or completely failing programs this season asked Macy’s to please drop the act from their parade, and Macy’s surprisingly agreed to do so.

This seems like a silly move on both the department store and Macy’s parts, as both of them would benefit well from the high ratings that the extremely popular young cast would bring to the network, which will be plastered with plugs for Macy’s that morning.

As of right now, all parties involved– NBC, Macy’s and Fox– are declining comment on the ugly rumor. Here’s hoping that NBC backs down on their demands, Macy’s grows a set or that Fox puts both of them on blast for denying us all the joy of teen musical comedy on Thanksgiving morning.
