Following the trials and tribulations of a struggling high school glee club full of misfits, 'Glee' sings directly to the outcast in all of us. With a special preview showing of the first episode airing after part one of the 'American Idol' finale (Tues., May 19, 9PM ET), some people might write it off as a fictional version of the mega reality hit, but the imagined characters of 'Glee' -- the goody-two-shoes diva, the reluctant jock and his mean girl cheerleader girlfriend, their good-intentioned teacher -- have more heart than a talent show could ever manufacture.
We sat down with star Cory Monteith (one of the only castmembers that's not a Broadway actor) to get the scoop on the new show, hear why this isn't another 'High School Musical' and get an exclusive preview of his vocal talents. -- By Maggie Furlong
