I haven't watched Glee but I've seen some on Twitter who are familiar with it say that it's not known for it's acting. Someone even said it's probably the most poorly written and acted show on TV. So I'm not worried about his acting. I'm thinking this was probably a good place to start. I think he probably has a coach and he'll do fine. I don't know about the worst acted show on TV, lol, but, yeah, most of the Glee actors are mediocre at best. And it doesn't matter one bit. The musical numbers are the heart of the show. Adam will be fine. He was great on Divas and has years of musical theater training. PLL was awkward but that was mostly because of the fangs(!)and the lines he was given were pretty clumsy, IMO. And the only people I saw criticize that acting were stans. The PLL viewers seemed to love him. He got lots of positive comments about that. I am so excited to see and hear Adam on TV on a regular basis! I also think his story arc has already been determined and not necessarily based on Glee fan reaction. JMHO. Personally, I think they are going to LOVE him I agree and I was just thinking that about PLL. Some stans criticized him but I don't remember anything negative outside of fans. I really think they're going to love him too.

I'm wondering whether it's possible that Glee already filmed Adam while he was in NY attending all of those plays. ETAOh gee Glee, that might mean Melvin stays for awhile. They tape Glee (both the NY and the Ohio parts) in Los Angeles, not NY or Ohio. The have not taped Adam's segment(s) yet. I bet Melvin-stache goes before they tape. ** As far as I can tell Idol is not an option. Per Adam, FOX had not approached Adam or his reps about judging Idol -- even before the management shake up when they were close to signing JHud and that whole Idol alum idea was floating around. It appears that the idea is on ice or scrapped because nothing more has happened with JHud. So there is no reason to think this was a real possibility. Setting that aside, I think GLEE accomplishes everything that Adam could have gotten from Idol, and a bit more. I think it is the better place for him to be. >> I am assuming Adam has a recurring role on GLEE with a minimum of 3 shows -- perhaps the whole first segment Fall 2013. If GLEE is a one show guest spot, then I think doing Idol (if he gets the chance) would be great. In the past a GLEE guest spot has not been referred to as joining the cast -- and has not had this kind of existing cast twitter response. So I think this is a cast spot not a guest, 1 show deal.
GLEE - Big new audience. Adam gets to act, sing and dance -- it expands his career possibilities. There are 6 to 8 million viewers ratings are declining slowly but not a dramatic fall. There is no one critical of this casting choice, the GLEE cast performs so Adam will be performing, GLEE does current music, the guest cast get to do their own music, the show has great demos for Adam and a big loyal audience. He will still get to perform on Idol when he has something to promote. GLEE had two albums in the annual Top 200 last year, performances sell on iTunes after the show. IDOL - The audience knows him. Adam gets to show he in an interesting personality and knows music -- good for keeping him in the public eye but does not expand his career possibilities. There 9 to 14 million viewers, but he will be primarily associated Idol forever -- and 2014 ratings could be far lower than 2013. There will be some people and some press and bloggers who will criticize the choice of Adam as a judge -- and that criticism will not be good for Adam (not successful enough yet, too early in his career, etc). From the research I have seen (2008) Idol audience mostly buys country and rock (alt rock, soft rock, guitar rock, classic rock) music, not current pop so not a good fit for Adam. I think at least 30% of Idol's current audience probably likes country music. Idol performances in 2013 did not generate big sales lifts. >> No matter what happens we know he will be invited back to Idol for a big show.A: GLEE Fall Season + IDOL Performance - makes sense to me for Adam. Expand his audience + retain Idol fans. Change his bio from Singer-Songwriter to Singer-Songwriter-Actor B: GLEE + IDOL Judging - limits the time he can spend on his music and touring. Change his bio from Singer-Songwriter to Singer-Songwriter-Reality TV Personality. I prefer A.
>> My dream scenario -- Fall season of GLEE. Adam Levine has to drop out of Spring Voice season, The Voice picks our Adam as a coach. We get Adam as a personality and he is on a show where the coaches perform every week and he reaches a new younger music buying audience (compared to Idol).
B. Glee and Idol, please! Although I prefer singing Adam, talking Adam will do nicely. Adam visability is good for album sales. I was paying attention when we were told that Glee was filmed in LA. It's just that Adam was in NY for a such long time. I was thinking that they might have shot some scenes around or in Broadway theaters or perhaps with Broadway stars.

---- Glee is the most poorly written and acted show on TV? LOL Not by a long shot. Lizard Lick Towing, anyone? Almost anything on ABC Family? Devious Maids? Mistresses? Whatever dreck Jennifer Love Hewitt is starring in these days?
Whoever said that must not see much tv. Glee is not great tv (or at least not any more), but I've seen waaaaaaaaaay worse on any given night. (In fact, we're right now considering canceling our cable because we are watching so little tv.)

I also think Adam will be fine with the acting duties. It ain't Shakespeare (which, BTW, he did in high school. A comedic role in which his drama teacher said he excelled). I think we fans are sometimes more exacting and critical than non-fans. If WE don't criticize it, I doubt we will see others doing so.
As to what role, I am pretty sure they have already determined that. I don't think, from other statements he has made, that Adam would agree to do a role without it being defined. He would have to approve the concept. Therefore, the basic story arc is probably set, tho depending on the audience reaction and the experience of everyone on the crew, could be expanded or extended. Since Ryan said "joining the cast" I am fairly confident that it is not just a one or two episode cameo. Once Adam gets on the air, I believe they will want MORE!
