I also rather enjoyed the little bit during the Spanish test, when Finn is suggesting names for the baby. Brittany, the poor put upon Dutch Cheerio, takes Quinn's blue book while muttering "I don't know anything".
I think this is the kind of show you can record and then see and hear different things every time. Stuff in the background, Moments between minor characters while majors are speaking. A very layered program.

This episode was absolutely brilliant, but the fake pregnancy storyline is getting sickening... I hope they end it soon. Will is going to be destroyed

It will be interesting to see Emma and Will finally kiss, because you know she's going to have to suddenly abandon all fear of human contact for that one special moment.

I know I will, as long as he doesn't bring in Dushku as a cameo.

Joss Whedon:
Hey kids and parents of kids and super-old, like ancestor-old-but-not-dead-yet-type people, just poking my oversized head in to say that the rumors are true... unless something very odd happens in the next few months, I will have the privilege of shooting an episode of GLEE. Why GLEE? Because I love cops, serial killers and gritty urban drama (I haven't seen the show yet). Why me? Because they're struggling and can't afford real directors. And to head off a few queries:
No, this doesn't mean Dollhouse definitely won't get a back nine. Our numbers mean that! But I kid. Okay, we're not exactly saving all the good stuff for 14-22, but nobody's closed the door. If D'House suddenly busts wide, huzzah, we'll still bring it, and I'll still go and direct an episode of Glee, because of my love of cops. These realities can co-exist. And possibly cross over, at least in fiction that I have wri - read. About.
What can we expect from a 'Joss Whedon' episode of Glee? An episode of Glee. God willin' and the crik don't rise, a good one. A television director's job is, on some level, to be anonymous; to find the most compelling way to present a story without calling attention to himself. I had a wonderful time doing just that on The Office, and hope to again. A guest director can bring a huge amount to the party (we've had CRAZY talent on Dollhouse), but the party isn't his. I just want to work with good people on a show that I like enough to have watched every episode several times. (I lied: I HAVE watched the show. And seriously, when do the cops show up?)
Whom will I kill? When will that go away? Is death really the only thing I'm known for? I'd hope not. You know how many people in the world actually die? ALL OF THEM. You know how many I've killed? Statistically, somewhat fewer. Can't we focus on another element of my work? Having said that, probably Principal Figgins. (No! I kid! God.)
Anyway, I hope that clears things up. I'm going to do my best, and more importantly, I'm going to do my best not to gush like a fanboy for eight straight days on set. Don't worry. I practiced with Bamber. I'm a pro.
Happy Monday. Especially for me. -j.

They also announced that Jonathan Groff will be guest starring in an extended arc as the singer of a rival glee band (and probable love interest to Rachel). Groff starred in Spring Awakening with Lea Michele also as her love interest. Now that I think about it, they should've just cast him as Finn.

Maybe Whedon could do us a solid and take care of the wife.

Here's an NPR story on Matthew Morrison (Will Schuster), interesting guy. It's from mid-September.
