'Glee' Cast Pulled from Macy's Parade?

By PopEater Staff Posted Oct 12th 2009 02:13PM

Looks like our favorite chorus members from 'Glee' have been dumped from Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade this year. While there is still speculation, TMZ reports that Macy's invited the FOX cast, but when rival NBC (who airs the parade) found out, they told the department store to pull the plug. TMZ reached out to a rep for FOX who declined to comment.

When the 'Glee' creator Ryan Murphy found out the news, he decided to take a verbal swipe at NBC... and the network's most famous comedian. "I completely understand NBC's position, and look forward to seeing a Jay Leno float," he told EW.com.

'Glee' is a musical comedy-drama television series that airs on Fox. It focuses on a high school show choir, also known as a glee club, set within the fictional William McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio.

The first season began airing on September 9, 2009. It stars Lea Michele, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays and Kevin McHale.

Watch the 'Glee' boys sing 'It's My Life.'

Well Robin, then this is why our country is in the situtuation it is;
huge debt, federalizing everything they can touch, taking from the
working class and giving to those who don't, and complete reverse
racism. Go ahead an keep watching the state-run stations and be
ignorant. As Thomas Jefferson said, "He who knows nothing is closer
to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and
errors."
If nothing else, you should expand your mind and consider all the
opinions and facts rather than foolishly marching to the crowd.

What a loser NBC is! I can't stand their network and their so-called commentators. They are so left wing and jealous of FOX........that Keith Oberman (however you spell his name) is the biggest uninformed jerk of all. And Chris Matthews is a pathetic know nothing !

By Chandra

NBC is falling in the ratings. Every station is beating NBC. Glee is a fantastic show and they dont want to showcase other stations good shows.
Wont stop me from watching parade but will watch more shows on other channels.

By MBA Health

I am boycotting Macy's as well as NBC. The Left will do anything to keep the right from speaking.

By Virginia

MACY'S JUST LOST ANOTHER CUSTOMER.......TAH TAH
MACY'S........JUST ANOTHER "TURKEY" STUFFED ON THANKSGIVING DAY !!!

By Terri

In either case, because they can't handle the fact that Fox has such a popular show or the political feud between the MSM and FOX it is immature and ridiculous.

By randy

NBC is jealous because Fox is #1 in the ratings and NBC is dead last. I never watch any NBC shows just like everyone else.
