And it starts at 9: **28** EDT or 8: **28** CDT, so set your DVR accordingly.

What’s with the odd start time? I noticed that on the promos during “House” last night.

And since the return of “Glee” overlaps with “Lost”, and we have a ball game to go to tonight, it looks like the DVR will be pulling double duty.

Everyone keeps telling me to watch this. I am going to do so tonight, only because I love Jane Lynch.

It’s starting so long after the hour because of the finale of “American Idol,” I think. I’m not sure because I don’t watch Idol… I’m only interested in karaoke if I can sing, too. 😃

you might not like it. there are a lot of established storylines that are looking to get resolved in the last few episodes, and most people don’t like jumping into a conversation midway. i will say, you would appreciate it a lot more if you knew show choir types in HS.

I’m wondering if it’ll be the typical hour long episode or just a half hour. A half hour episode would just be a tease.

\*Glee \*and \*V! \*are on the agenda at my house tonight. Plus a sneak peak in hopes they boot off the Gosselin chick from _Dancing with the Stars_.

What does that say about me?

That you’re a gay lizard-alien with astonishing good sense.

My DVR schedule has it from 8:30 - 9:30 p.m., so it’ll be an hour. I was hoping for 90 minutes, but no such luck.

At the moment I can’t watch one show and record another so I will probably switch to Glee during Lost commercial breaks, and then flip between V and Glee as I feel at the moment.

My DVR has it from **8:28** - 9:30 pm (Central Time), as **StGermain** indicated in the OP. Might be a good idea to pad your start time by a few minutes.  
It’s been a long mid-season break for Glee–so glad to have it back.  
I’m sure the music will be fun, but I’m really looking forward to the warped sense of humor this show has. The previews I’ve seen for these back nine episodes look promising. I’ve watched each of the first 13 episodes at least twice, and I usually pick up on some funny throwaway line on second viewing that I missed the first time.

Especially looking forward to the episode directed by Joss Whedon.

Shit!!! I was _positive_ this was happening Wednesday – and was totally looking forward to it.

If you chose to watch, I’ll bet you LOVED this episode, especially the version of Vogue after the credits.

Here’s how it works. You take us out for dinner and pay for the meal and we’ll let you watch us make out.

Next time I’ll bring my Chinese cooking utensils. You have enough product in your hair to season a wok.

Now on Friday nights I make out with my cat and watch The Ghost Whisperer.

And for those that might’ve missed the excellent Sue Sylvester’s Vogue, here’s the [Hulu link.](http://www.hulu.com/watch/142123/glee-vogue)

“Will Shuster, I hate you!”

I can totally buy Kurt as a gay lizard alien. He’s very reptilian.
