Joss Whedon to Direct an Episode of GLEE

That was me you heard screaming just now. And everyone who saw “Once More With Feeling”. And everyone who saw Dr. Horrible. And everyone who loves good TV.

EW.com’s Michael Ausiello reports that Glee, the freshman phenomenon from the mind of Ryan Murphy, will have none other than Joss Whedon at the helm for one of the back 9 episodes Fox ordered last month. It’s a genius move that will, I hope, send some of the millons who are watching Glee to Whedon’s struggling show, Dollhouse. Ausiello is quick to reassure us that Whedon’s moonlighting gig on Glee in no way indicates the fate of Dollhouse, though. He’ll likely put those kids through the ol’ song and dance routine after production on Dollhouse‘s 13 episodes is completed.
