10.28am: Truth on Ryan Murphy’s comments that Monteith, Michele and Colfer have been axed? Falchuk: “I don’t know where that report came from. Cory, Lea, Chris are seniors, but they’re graduating. Just because they’re graduating, it doesn’t mean they’re leaving the show. If you have Lea Michele under contract, you’re not just going to let her go. Come the first episode back, you see who the seniors and juniors are. Some of our seniors will not graduate. I can guarantee here that they are not done with the show after this season.”
10.30am: Falchuk says the first nine episodes will focus on the run-up to Sectionals.
10.31am: Tribute episode? Falchuk: “We talked about it. If it’s going to happen, it will happen in the second half of the season. We really do want to spend some real time with the characters in the first nine, ten episodes.”
10.43am: More of the characters’ families in season three? Kurt’s lesbian aunts, Rachel’s dads? Brennan: “It’s tricky with parents. In the second episode ever, we actually wrote a scene with her dads and we cut it. We’ve talked about it forever, but I think when you’re in high school, your parents stop being the major influence in your life. You’re sort of on your own. I think soon we’ll reveal more and more.”
10.47am: Thoughts to spinoff with Rachel, Kurt and Finn? Falchuk: “Yes. We explored that as a possibility. It was weird when Chris Colfer was saying he heard on Twitter about him not coming back, because we hadn’t talked to him about it since March. We’re leaning against a spinoff right now. I think we’re going to pass.”
10.48am: Falchuk: “If you watched the finale last season, Broadway was something we were planting as a possibility because we were exploring it.”
