One of the best endings to a season ever. Just... GUH.

In addition, I found these articles today, and I thought they had cute, interesting little tidbits:


Five Glee Finale Secrets

Think you're ready to say good-bye to season one of Glee? Not so fast! I caught up with the über-talented producer who wrote-and directed-last night's epic season finale, Brad Falchuk, along with Jane Lynch (Sue!) and executive producer Dante Di Loreto and they spilled five secrets you fans have to know:

"The Will/Emma Kiss Wasn't Scripted": Can you stand it? So says Falchuk, and since he wrote and directed last night's episode, he probably knows. So how did that awesome lip-lock go down? "I didn't tell Jayma it was coming," Brad explains. "We shot all of Matt's coverage first, and a master, and then when we got to her coverage, I pulled him aside and told him to kiss her. Her reaction is totally real." And made for some incredible TV, no?

The Tears Were Real: "Just so you know," Brad tells me, "no one needed any help crying. They all did it on their own without the use of tear enhancers. Those kids are all obnoxiously talented." Funny, isn't it Emmy voting time right now or something? You listening to all this TV Academy? Speaking of…

Jane Lynch Wants to Shout From the Rooftops That the Writers Deserve an Emmy! If you saw that unbelievable final scene with Sue and Will last night in the choir room, which was penned by executive producer Ian Brennan and which was some of the best comedy dialogue anywhere on television all season long, you'll know precisely why Jane tells us: "The writers are fantastic. I think they should be put on a mountaintop and given as many lovers as they want."

Jonathan Groff and Idina Menzel May Return: They're still figuring out the plan for season two, but according to Di Loreto, Jonathan "did a great job. He's the nicest guy in the world. He came out on the tour with us and the audience loved him. I sure hope he gets a chance to come back on." As for Idina? "I hope there's an opportunity for her to be back. I think she's a really interesting character."

Sue Sylvester Isn't Gonna Go All Goody-Goody on Us: Despite saving the day in last night's episode and giving New Directions another year, Jane says she expects to bring the same unabashed, gasp-worthy wrongness to her role next season. "Still," she adds, "we know she's got a heart underneath it and that makes it easier for us to take all the terrible things she says and does. We know she's human and that makes her character lovable." True dat.


Glee Season 2 Spoilers

John Stamos (yes, Uncle Jesse!) will be making a guest appearance as Carl Howell, Emma's dentist. Remember how she said she had been dating her dentist in finale last night? It looks like Stamos will be making an appearance as her boyfriend. Will he and Will have to engage in a sing-off to determine who will win fair Emma's heart? Fingers crossed! EW reports that Susan Boyle might also be making an appearance (which was rumored a little while ago) and now creator Ryan Murphy reveals they have plans to introduce a few new high school characters:

[Murphy] and producers are also looking to add some new members to the club, including a boyfriend for Kurt. “I just want him to be an everyday dude,” says Murphy. “And I want him to be sort of struggling [with his sexuality] and Kurt helps him deal with it and in the process they fall for each other.” Also look for a potential love interest for Mercedes and a Carrie Underwood-esque, Christian country singer who will be a rival to Rachel. “When people hear we’re going to do that, they will expect that we’re making fun of her,” says Murphy. “We’re not. The show is about inclusiveness and about giving voices to a lot of people.”

Also, expect two more tribute episodes and a season-long goal to get to Nationals:

“The Madonna episode was so popular, I think I’m gonna do two tribute episodes - one in the fall and one in the spring - and we’re figuring out who those artists are.”

“I know that season two ends with Nationals in New York. I don’t know if they’ll make it - we haven’t figured that out.”

I can't wait!
