Glee’s Season 2 kicks off Tuesday September 21 at 8 p.m. (Sidenote: squeal!), and from the looks of these previews and promos, we have a lot to look forward to: Filipino pop star and Oprah fave Charice joins the cast! More Lady Gaga covers! Sue Sylvester being as bitchy as ever! Jump below to catch a few sneak peeks of Glee’s second season.

Glee sneak peak – Will & Sue

“One girl ate a pigeon.” Every line out of this woman’s mouth is classic. Even in this scene alone, it’s more than evident just how deserved Jane Lynch’s Emmy win really is. Keep it up, milady!

From what we learn in the below promos, Finn still has feelings for Quinn, the show choir crew will most likely take a field trip to New York around sweeps week, and Hollywood’s new favorite red carpet fashionista Lea Michele is looking slimmer than ever. Plus, we briefly see a bespectacled Charice in action, and the gang covers “Telephone” and “Empire State Of Mind”. Fabulous!

Sadly MIA from this montage of merriment: any Britney Spears scenes. But we know they’ll be making the rounds soon enough.
