Squee! Glee fans..or Happy Days fans in this case! Join my happiness in learning just who has been cast as Emma’s parents for season 3 of Glee. Sure the picture gives it away but in case you can’t tell, click the cut and find out!
Spoilers:
It’s Ralph Malph! Happy Days fans will be happy to learn that Don Most has been cast as Emma’s dad.
Via TvGuide:
Glee has cast Don Most and Valerie Mahaffey to play Rusty and Rose Pillsbury, the parents of guidance counselor Emma Pillsbury (Jayma Mays), TVGuide.com has learned exclusively.
It’s clear now where our favorite obsessive-compulsive ginge may have gotten her red hair. Most is best known for playing the redheaded jokester Ralph Malph on Happy Days. Mahaffey has received an Emmy nomination for her supporting role as Eve on Northern Exposure and has a history of playing seemingly normal but rather intense (read: crazy) redheaded ladies, such as the Orson-loving Alma Hodge on Desperate Housewives. Hmm, “intense” could be a trait in the Pillsbury DNA.
Okay Gleeks! Here’s a first look at Season 3 of your favorite show! Get ready for Glee!

Spoilers:
Much to his dismay, Will discovers that (thanks to a private donation) former Vocal Adrenaline coach Shelby Corcoran has been hired to direct a second show-choir group at McKinley; while both Will and Shelby seem good natured about their impending competition, several of the students are less than thrilled about her return to Lima. Brittany manages Kurt’s campaign for class President, but he worries that her strategy may be too one-dimensional; and auditions for the school’s production of West Side Story begin with Artie, Emma, and Coach Beiste serving as the trio of directors. Trying to mend fences, Shelby gives her biological daughter Rachel some sound career advice. Meanwhile, auditions for the male lead in the play heat up, threatening to drive a wedge between Kurt and Blaine.

Hmm. According to UltimateGleeks, Ryan Murphy was finally granted permission to use a song that was once denied to him. Off the top of my head, the bands that come to mind are Red Hot Chili Peppers, Coldplay and Kings of Leon. What songs would you like to see them cover? My money is on Coldplay since Gwyneth Paltrow had such a big part on the show.
