FOX’s new show “Glee” will have an encore presentation of its pilot episode this Wednesday night, September 2nd (8:58-10:00 PM ET/PT), but this time around, viewers will get to see the “director’s cut” of the show, which includes never-before-seen footage.

Created by Ryan Murphy (“Nip/Tuck”), “Glee” follows the story of high school teacher Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) who is determined to save the doomed glee club at McKinley High from being cancelled. Schuester enlists an eclectic group of unlikely students to join the glee club and helps them begin to realize their true potential. With a wonderfully talented cast, including the always amazing Jane Lynch (POST GRAD), and with a killer soundtrack (the cast’s version of the Journey classic “Don’t Stop Believin” went to number one on iTunes), “Glee” is one of the most anticipated new shows for the fall season.

To celebrate the upcoming season premiere of “Glee,” FOX is searching for the “Biggest GLEEk” and holding a “GLEEk Sweepstakes,” giving fans who enter the chance to win prizes ranging from autographed photos to a trip for four to Los Angeles to have dinner with the cast.

The season premiere of “Glee” will air on Wednesday, September 9th on FOX.
