Next week, Fox is getting spooky, as they bring us an entire week’s worth of Halloween themed shows. New comedy Raising Hope will get it’s haunt on with a special Halloween episode on Wednesday, but before that, Glee is doing the Time Warp with a very special episode dedicated to the classic rock musical The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
The episode revolves around the cast putting together their own performance of Rocky Horror for the school, and getting plenty of dirty looks and judging faces that most fans of the transvestite-dancing, underwear-donning, homoerotic musical have put up with for years.
It’s impossible for them to fit the entire musical into the 40 minutes or so that they have to tell the story, but we do know that the album consists of Science Fiction Double Feature, Damn it, Janet, Whatever Happened Tto Saturday Night, Sweet Transvestite, Touch a Touch a Touch a Touch Me, There’s a Light, and Time Warp, so we’ll get to see those songs during the episode.
Check out an exclusive look at the show after the jump, and be sure to catch The Rocky Horror Glee Show next Tuesday at 8pm ET/PT on Fox.

Sort of. Actually, it’s a clip from a new episode which has been fashioned into a commercial for American Express’s Members Project campaign in which it promotes book drives and not being mean. At least that’s what we got from the commercial.
What we do get, however, is some new footage of some of our favorite Glee cast members like Artie (Kevin McHale), Kurt (Chris Colfer), Tina (Jenna Ushkowitz), Mr. Schuester (Matthew Morrison), and of course, Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch).
This season promises to have some great moments, such as a Britney Spears cameo, songs from Rocky Horror Picture Show and much more. Join the whole gang as Glee returns on September 21st.

While most of the country got to watch the Yankees take home the World Series over the past two weeks, fans of the hit FOX show Glee had to sit and wait while their show was on hiatus. That wait ends tonight with the brand new episode, “Wheels.”
In tonight’s episode, the glee club is still on the road to the sectionals, and tonight the story is more about Artie (Kevin McHale). The rest of the group realizes how difficult it can be for Artie to have to keep up from the confines of a wheelchair, so Will (Matthew Morrison) decides to show everyone just how hard it can be.
Tonight’s episode features the songs “Dancing With Myself” by Billy Idol, “Defying Gravity” from the Broadway show Wicked and Ike and Tina Turner’s “Proud Mary.” Check out the clips after the jump, and be sure to catch “Wheels” tonight, November 11th, from 9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT on FOX.
