Big news all around today as we learned that Miss Mary Katherine Gallagher herself – i.e., Molly Shannon – will be squaring off against Sue Sylvester in the spring season of Glee.  But, overshadowed by this news was DVR Playground‘s interview with Jane Lynch, in which they asked, and she answered, and I quote:

Since we don’t want to get you in trouble with Ryan Murphy for sharing too many upcoming GLEE secrets, perhaps we can get you in trouble for an entirely different reason. With Sue having her own segment on the local news, what are your thoughts on the newest FOX News correspondent Sarah Palin??

I almost don’t want to opinionated but I think she’s as stupid as Sue and as over-the-top. You know what, I bet Sarah Palin will end up looking like Sue Sylvester. She’s going to have these ridiculous views with very little knowledge underneath them. You know I have a joke in the first episode back where I call some of my cheerleaders stupid, saying, “You may be some of the stupidest teens I’ve ever encountered and that’s saying something. I coached a young Sarah Palin.”

Yeah. YEAH!!!!

Jane also semi-explains how Sue Sylvester makes her comeback (“a little sexual blackmail”) and what she knows – or, more accurately – doesn’t know about the writers’ plans for her character.  Go on, read the short Q & A over here.  Us, well, we’re just going to savor that Sarah Palin quote a little bit longer.
