The return episode of 'Glee' will be an ode to football and Michael Jackson's 'Thriller,' with a mash-up of the hit song being performed at the halftime of a local football championship game. Still simply being titled the 'Super Bowl episode,' the 'Glee' cast members opened up to MTV about the episode.

"It was a huge production. We we're shooting that until 6:30 in the morning," Cory Monteith (Finn) told MTV. "We shot all night, and it was probably one of the most physical numbers that we've ever done. I was lifting Naya Rivera at one point in the dance. It was really active. We had the whole USC band wrapped in to this number as you can see in the photos. It was awesome."
Dianna Agron (Quinn) added, "The whole night, everybody kept saying, 'Why are you laughing so much? Why are you smiling so much?' ... I was just in my element. I was in huge makeup, huge hair, huge costume, the stuff that I loved the most, which is why I loved 'Rocky [Horror Picture Show]' so much."
Of course, the opportunity to do a Michael Jackson number is very exciting for the cast and crew of 'Glee.' "I've been pushing very obnoxiously for a very, very long time," Kevin McHale (Artie) said of the 'Thriller' piece, "so I'm beyond thrilled that we do Michael Jackson."
