Rumours will get the Glee Treatment!

[SortaSavageLike]

They should make a two-part Tusk episode, which turns into the most expensive television production ever made, is filmed largely in someone's basement, and requires multiple viewings to fully appreciate. The entire cast will perform their parts on separate soundstages, and the episode will be pieced together by three neurotic editors over a 13-month period. When released on DVD, each disc will be protected by two slipcases which you can never fit back together, and the cover art will be a picture of a dog biting an ear.

Lindsey will record his segment in the bathroom, but this time it will be due to an enlarged prostate, rather than the acoustics.

I think the material on Tusk, given that there's more of it, would have been easier to work with and perhaps a little more interesting/off the wall.

But I understand them choosing Rumours - I'm sure they're planning on incorporating the breakup drama into the episode. In fact, Murphy just said this... "We’ve always wanted to do an episode that is not a tribute to a musical act but to an album, and one of the albums that we all three love is Rumours by Fleetwood Mac. … You watch the show with everybody with each other, then breaking up – it’s like the making of the Rumours album!”

As far as a cameo, if Stevie and Lindsey were willing to make fun of themselves I think it could be potentially hilarious if the two of them made a small appearance... but I think they take themselves a little too seriously for that to work out.

Also, I'm consistently seeing Rumours being spelled as Rumors in articles about the show doing the album. It's getting on my nerves haha.

ETA: Another thought, on the subject of cameos... I know Stevie supposedly wants to be on the show (which I find strange considering she's said she doesn't like being filmed nowadays).. it would be pretty funny if the reason the Glee club decides to do Rumours is because Stevie comes to Mr. Schuester in a dream haha.

Yes, this news has gotten a lot of press coverage and the mis-spelling is very annoying.

possibly the funniest post ever on the ledge not written by michele. ... and you almost lessened the sting of this Rumours news, about which I guess I should stop complaining. BUT I just think that there's a big ol' difference between those who were introduced to the Mac through Rumours, Rumours redeux The Dance, to, now, Glee... The Dance retained (and updated) the spirit and meaning of Rumours--which is uniquely predicated on the personalities/histories/psychologies of the individual artists and their collective dynamic. Glee already perverts the minds a new generation of pop consumers... Rumours is their only hope, but if this is their intro, I fear their imaginations won't be able to expand upon contacting the real thing.
