Boo to the Yankees and the Phillies for taking away our much-need dose of "Glee" again this week.

Because we at Happiness never want you to feel TV-deprived, we're giving up our "Glee: The Music Volume 1" soundtrack.

All you have to do to get it is tell us the perfect mash-up duet for Will Schuester and Sue Sylvester. That's it.

Post your ideas by midnight tonight, we'll pick the best one and you just might get to wail along to "Don't Stop Believin'," "Sweet Caroline," and oh yes, CAN ANYBODY FIND ME....."Somebody to Love."

The cast of Fox's new hit show "Glee" sang the National Anthem before Game 3 of the World Series Saturday night in Philadelphia.

Amber Riley, who plays Mercedes Jones on the show, sang lead vocals while the rest of New Directions group sang backup. No mash-ups, no dancing.

"Glee" is pre-empted for a while due to World Series games on Fox, and will return November 11.

Watch a video of the performance below.

Our guest blogger Lenni G. is back, reporting on the dance and the drama:

If last night is any indication, this is going to be a weird season.

First, we found out yesterday morning that Billy Bell, one of the best dancers, is out - we don't find out what's wrong with him, just that, "His doctor won't allow him to continue."

So the show brings in hip hop guy, Brandon to replace contemporary Billy - not exactly an even, or really fair, replacement.

Next, shortly after the show starts we see Noelle Marsh (our Sanford girl) with a huge brace on her knee - Nigel announces that they are not sure whether she will be able to continue but they are giving her a week to find out.

Is it the 20th anniversary of "The Simpsons" annual Halloween episode already?

While I've often not found the trio of shorts as funny as a typical episode, they are awfully fun, and this one keeps up the tradition.

It airs tonight at 8.

Two local dancers have advanced to the Las Vegas round of Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance," and will perform on tonight's show.

Ariana Debose and Noelle Marsh, both from the CC & Co. Dance Complex in Raleigh, did well enough in their auditions to earn a spot on the Vegas show. Friends, fans, and supporters are planning to meet at Rudino's in North Raleigh tonight for a viewing party.  

The show airs on Fox 50 tonight at 8pm. 

Dr. Lisa Sanders, a Yale School of Medicine internist and technical
medical advisor on Fox's hit show "House," will speak at UNC on
Wednesday.

"House," which debuted in 2004 and stars Hugh Laurie, was
inspired by Sanders' monthly New York Times Magazine column
"Diagnosis," which Sanders had been writing since 2002. Sanders met with show creator and writer David Shore to develop the storyline for the pilot, and still consults with the show's writers and producers at the beginning of each season. 

Today, little Diyana Johnson from Fuquay-Varina, will get some national acclaim when she appears with her mom Briana on "The Wendy Williams Show."

The show airs at WRAZ Fox-50  at 4 p.m. You can catch it later on BET at midnight.

You might remember that the first-grader at Lincoln Heights Elementary School helped deliver her new baby sister Madisyn, when her mother's water broke early on September 16. Diyana got a blanket for the newborn and opened the door for emergency crew.

The two are Wendy fans, and will appear during the opening announcement of the show.

We expect to hear Diyana do a mean "How you doin?" That's Wendy's signature phrase.

I always think it's a little unfair to judge a show on one episode. On the one hand, the first show should be strong and representative of the series.

On the other hand, I've learned that sometimes it takes the writers time to get things to gel.

So after someone told me to watch the second episode of "The Cleveland Show" (Fox, 8:30 tonight), I thought, 'well, all right.'

Fox has two shows this season featuring all-black casts. There's "Brothers" and there's "The Cleveland Show," which airs this Sunday night at 8:30, part of Fox's animation domination block.

Because it's a spin-off of the hit show "The Family Guy," it's a safe bet that "The Cleveland Show" will be the one that lasts.

And safe is the problem with the show.

It's always good to say something nice before you say something not so nice.

So, I'll say this about "Brothers" (Fox, 8 p.m.): Michael Strahan can act.

That's really saying something. The Super Bowl champ holds his own in his first sitcom with an accomplished cast: Daryl "Chill" Mitchell, CCH Pounder and Carl Weathers. He's a natural.
