Holiday episode steps it up with a black-and-white PBS show within the show. By Jim Cantiello Puck and Tina in “Glee” Photo: Fox On Tuesday night, “Glee” premiered its latest holiday episode, “An Extraordinary Merry Christmas,” and kept the drama to a minimum. The little bit of plot revolved around the glee club having to choose between producing a PBS holiday special or keeping a previous commitment to a homeless shelter where Sue Sylvester volunteers. Thanks to the magic of Christmas, they were able to do both! And the old-school PBS variety show was a gut-busting diversion. Taking place at Kurt and Blaine’s “bachelor chalet,” the two-act black-and-white Christmas special — shown in its entirety during the “Glee” episode — included “surprise guest stars” who couldn’t quite figure out which camera was on, “Star Wars”-inspired characters rocking Springsteen and an Irish elf who loves Jesus. And it wouldn’t be Christmas on “Glee” without an adorable duet from Klaine. Meanwhile, Rachel and Finn enjoyed their first Christmas together, and the McKinley High diva learned a thing or two (or five) about charity. So cuddle up with a loved one, light a fire and take in the final musical “Glee”-cap of 2011. Watch the embedded video below and sing along with these lyrics! Sue Sylvester’s alone this Christmas Because Ryan Murphy killed her sister Spends her time at a homeless shelter Keepin’ busy so she won’t miss her The glee club says they’ll sing there Spread around some cheer But PBS asks them to air A special this year Artie’s tapped to direct it A boost to his career They finish in time so they can go shine And sing all sincere There’s no conflict on Christmas No plot to be had Just songs slapped together To sell the soundtrack real bad The special was crazy All retro and cool What better way to spend these magic days That we call the yule Rachel wants a million presents Finn says, “Here’s a pig” He buys her stars and fancy earrings “Let’s give to charity,” they commit “Glee” finally lets Rory speak Talked Jesus and wore a knit I bet “The Glee Project” ‘s Cameron regrets Saying, “I quit.” “Glee” rocked this Christmas No attack on the day Someone tell Rick Perry To go away Klaine’s bachelor chalet made me laugh till I cried Everything looks better in old black-and-white [ In the background to the tune of “Auld Lang Syne” ] Should old Charices be forgot No Sebastian to be seen I’ll miss you “Glee” until you are Back in 2012 on my screen [ Spoken word over the background vocals ] And so this holiday season, we give thanks to all the people and things on “Glee” that bring us joy Like Heather Morris when she forgets that she’s on camera Or that Lea Michele duet with Brendon from Panic! at the Disco And the “Glee” writers for keeping slut pig out of this episode And Tina when she’s forced to give exposition about last Christmas that we don’t really need “Glee,” you’re a sloppy bastard sometimes But I can’t wait to see you in 2012 What did you think of the “Glee” holiday episode?
