As if we had any doubt, TV Guide reports that Glee, Fox’s ratings juggernaut about a high school choir, has been picked up for a second season. We’ve loved Glee ever since it was a pilot script,” said Fox President Kevin Reilly. “So it’s been an incredible thrill to watch the show take root and see audiences embrace these characters in such a huge way.”
Even more exciting than the promise of another season of Glee is that there will be a nationwide casting call starting in February to fill three new roles being added in the second season. For all the “Gleeks” out there who would die for a place on the show, now’s your chance!
Glee returns to your televisions on April 13th.

Though this may not be a first look for many, The Adventures of Power is a brand new independent film sneaking up on us next month that proves to look quite good. From relative unknown director Ari Gold, who once won a student Oscar for his film Helicopter, the film is about a boy’s dream to become the world’s best air drummer.
With the same aesthetic as Napoleon Dynamite, the film looks like it will find it’s youth audience. The movie stars Gold in the lead as Power, alongside Michael McKean, Jane Lynch, and Entourage‘s Adrian Grenier, who is also in the band The Honey Brothers with Gold.
The movie first debuted at Sundance last year and went home as the Official Selection of the show. With that and a series of other selections from dozens of film festivals, Adventures of Power looks to be one of the cult comedy hits of the year.
