“GLEE” Stars Not Leaving After All…
Just weeks ago, GLEE creator Ryan Murphy said three major cast members were graduating and moving on after this season. This was quite a shock not only to fans of actors Lea Michele, Chris Colfer and Cory Monteith (pictured left), but also to the actors themselves. The TV world was in an uproar, as as much of an uproar as one can get when they have no personal investment whatsoever. Now, we hear…those seniors aren’t going anywhere? HUH?
At the Comic-Con convention in San Diego, GLEE executive producer Brad Falchuck said Ryan Murphy’s remarks needed to be clarified. “Here’s the exact thing: They’re seniors. They’re graduating. But that doesn’t mean they’re leaving the show,” Falchuk said. “It was never our intention or plan to let these people go… They are not done with the show after this season.”
Hmmm. Maybe Mr. Falchuck and Mr. Murphy need to have a conversation, possibly in between rehearsal for yet another Lady Gaga number. In any case, I think the backlash was bigger than Fox expected and so a sudden change of heart was made. They are the most popular characters. How do you get rid of the most popular characters on a hit show? {tap, tap, tap} I’m talking to you, Mr. Murphy. Maybe they get caught in a sex scandal and fail their senior year? And now you know why I don’t write for prime time TV.
