Glee News! John Stamos joins the cast, Finale scores big ratings

Those of you who watched last nights 'Glee' finale heard Emma mention that she was now in a relationship with her dentist.

Well the role of that dentist has now been filled with none other than John Stamos.  Glee executive producer Brad Falchuk confirmed to E! that Stamos will definitely be joining the cast in season 2.  However, for how many episodes seems unclear at this point.  The character will be a recurring character throughout the season.

The story line will surely bring him into conflict with Matthew Morrison's Will Schuester, the glee-club director who fans are hoping finally gets together with Emma for real. Word is that Will and Stamos' characters will find themselves butting heads — and vocal cords — during a sing-off next season. Stamos might give Morrison a run for his money, as the "Full House" star has performed with the Beach Boys and appeared on Broadway in productions of "Cabaret" and "Bye Bye Birdie."

In other 'Glee' news, last nights finale drew 10.9 million viewers and a 4.6 preliminary adults 18-49 rating. That gave "Glee" the biggest rating for a new series finale this season and marked the show's best numbers without an "American Idol" lead-in. The ratings also came despite heavy competition from ABC's telecast of Game 3 of the NBA Finals.
