Just how confident is Fox in the staying power of Glee as a cultural phenomenon? The network has already renewed the series for a third season, despite the fact that it hasn’t even finished its first season. Says Fox Entertainment President Kevin Reilly: “Everything about Glee — from the concept to the characters to the marketing — has been innovative and risky, but with [series creator] Ryan Murphy tapping into the zeitgeist, the risk has paid off with this truly remarkable series. Glee has one of the most active, devoted fan bases I’ve ever seen, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to give Gleeks a third season of their favorite show.” Maybe there is another Lost after all.
