I was hoping it was going to be Susan Boyle as Rachel's mother.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Originally, the original Facebook group was "Betty White for Rachel Berry's mother on Glee (please)?"

I'd like Gleedina to host SNL AS the character of Glea Michelpheba's Mom.

I'll work on the Facebook petition tonight.

I certainly don't know if it was on this board, but it could very well be. I remember reading it here and on Broadway Secrets on livejournal.

By "float," I mean suggested...and I also remember the powers that be at Glee saying that she would be on but would NOT play Lea's mom, which is pretty funny after last night!

This show writes itself. Both will get all the way to nationals and have a crisis of purpose. Should Idina be rooting against her daughter in favor of Vocal Adrenaline? Is Lea's faith more in Matt or Idina.

There will be some power ballad duet, which is what we have to determine now. What will be their power ballad duet? I say "Someone Else's Story" from Chess.

Maybe Idina can sing a trio with Lea's gay dads! I vote Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Derrick Baskin! Oh wait...

Maybe the people from Glee read BroadwayWorld and they, like, totally STOLE the idea from us.

Well if Puck sings "Mack the Knife" and Idina and Idina Jr. sing "Someone Else's Story" then I demand all of you stand up as my witnesses that they are stealing my intellectual property.

Oh. Well, golly gee-whiz.

A spoiler alert for people like me who just started watching "Glee" last week and are only 5 episodes in would have been nice... O_o

You don't need a spoiler alert because it didn't happen. Susan Boyle was Rachel's real mother. She traded baby Rachel for a tin of haggis and a wool jumper.

It's kinda a no-brainer, so I wouldn't be contacting your lawyers just yet.
