More new Glee promos! Watch here. Are you a gleek?

We introduce you to the cast members of FOX’s Glee. We chat with the young and fresh faces on the show, and learn about each of their characters. We also find out why they think the show is creating so much buzz. Hosted by Michelle Marie.

HitFix: So how was high school for you?
Lea Michele: I had a really great high school experience. I liked it a lot. I mean, I was happy to be out of high school when it was done, but now I get to spend every day in high school hallways, so it’s nice.

HitFix: How do you think this version of high school is different from the ones we ordinarily see?
LM: I think that as opposed to other high school shows, it just shows the life of the misfits, the not-cool kids and that’s who we are, so it shows high school from that aspect.

HitFix: Since your background is in theater, how are you adapting to working in TV?
LM: It’s hard getting new material, so much so fast. But I love the idea. I love the process of television. I love the challenge of focusing on one thing really, really hard and then letting go of it.

HitFix: And give me the pitch to get people to watch the show…
LM: Please f***ing… [she breaks into giggles] I’m so sorry! Anyway, it’s amazing. I just can’t say anything other than that. It’s so funny and it’s so fantastic. I’m a huge fan.

Glee premieres on Tuesday, May 19 on FOX and will return to FOX in the fall.

With FOX getting set to unveil Glee following the penultimate episode of American Idol next Tuesday, actress Lea Michele is on the brink of becoming Hollywood’s next big thing … trust us. With that in mind, we’d like to take this opportunity to share five things you probably don’t know about the girl everyone’s going to be talking about come Wednesday morning.

1) The beauty once was told she wasn’t pretty enough for TV.
Yes, if you can believe it, some foolish casting director once dubbed Michele “too ethnic looking and not pretty enough for television” when asked to evaluate her chances of making it in Hollywood. Fortunately, she didn’t listen… and Glee’s casting director has much better vision! “I know I’m a theater girl but I fell in love with the script so much, fought for it and now here I am!” she told us during a recent visit to the Glee set. “It’s kind of ridiculous. I still have moments at least twice a day when I’m like, ‘This is amazing, I can’t believe this. I’m so happy!’”

You’ve watched the first episode. Now watch scenes from upcoming episodes beginning this fall!

As a special surprise to all the Lea and Glee fans, I’ve added 43 screencaps of Lea’s scenes from the show’s unaired pilot. I only capped the scenes that were cut from the aired pilot. Enjoy!

Lea Michele discusses Glee.

Glee cast performs “Somebody To Love” at the Fox Upfronts, New York City Center, NYC.

I have added screencaps of the pilot pisode of Glee. The rest of the episodes aren’t set to air until the fall, but what did you think? I personally loved the show (clearly, lol)! It just sucks having to wait some months before we get to see more of it! Lea was truly wonderful and so incredibly talented as both an actress and singer!
