Glee will air as a series on TEN at 7:30pm Thursday September 17th, a week after its US series launch.
The high school musical by writer Ryan Murphy (Nip / Tuck, Popular) looks set to be a cheeky addition to TEN’s schedule, and should help Rush with a stronger lead-in.
In the early PG slot it remains to be seen whether the episodes will require any editing by TEN.
The premiere episode which aired in July was also a PG classification.

Question?? Was the special one-off episode of “Glee” (which aired a few weeks back), in any way connected to the actual series? I mean, will I have had to see that episode to follow the series? Was that episode actually Episode #1? Or will this series now start from Episode #1? Or Episode #2? Sorry, just hate to watch a series if I’ve already missed an episode or two . . . Thnks
Robbie yes it was. TEN aired it in advance same as US did. They will replay a slightly edited version next week before Ep 2 the week after. Recommended.
Getaway skews older…Glee will smash it.
Rush doesn’t need help…it’s audience is 25% higher than series one
It will be the original episode that was shown last month
I have to agree why a Thursday Night?Most of your targetted Audience work or go out late night shopping or failing that You are up against Getaway and Channel Seven Various Offerings.
I never saw the pilot so I hope they schedule a repeat sometime soon.
I hope this goes well for TEN. I loved the pilot of Glee, the actors and everything. It deserves a good shot. Paired up with Rush it could be a really good lineup for them.
Good night for Glee, hope it helps Rush.
Damn, why thursday nights!
I really hope this suceeds but I fear it will be like Arrested Development and be one of those shows you go… damn… I really wish that had lasted another season.
This is my most anticipated new series/ I can’t wait!
Apparently Ten have a director’s cut of the pilot that they’ll show when the series kicks off in September.
i wonder if 10 plan to screen that first episode again as a lead in?… I missed it
Ten are desperate for this show to succeed. During Idol last night they showed at least 4 ads for it during one commercial break.
It should be interesting to see how Glee goes.
Is there any chance of the premiere episode that aired in July of getting a replay?
I’d be surprised if they didn’t repeat the Pilot as there’s been too much of a gap, and a good chance to snare new viewers.
I just hope this doesn’t turn into another 90210 and gets dropped after a few weeks (either here of in the US), I liked the pilot and it’s good they are ‘fast tracking’ the show.
BTW why aren’t they using the ‘fast tracking’ anymore?
It’s odd noting the cultural differences between the US and Aus. Airing this show at 9pm as they do in the US would seem too late for this type of show if you did it here. But I guess it leaves some room for a higher rating.
