'Glee' Getting Set to Time Travel! Show Plans to Jump Ahead for Final Season

Are you ready for Glee to do a time warp?

The show currently in its fifth season will be traveling ahead in time when it returns this fall for its sixth and final season.

Ryan Murphy, creator of the hit Fox show, sat down with E! News to give them the details on how he is planning for the final year of the show to play out. He tells them that, "we are going to do a time jump, and that's really all I'll say."

He goes on to say that, "everything sort of builds to a head [in the current season's finale]. I would say explosion is too harsh of a word. But something big happens and then the final season is the aftermath of that."

Any ideas on what could happen in the Glee universe?

Ryan admits that this past season has had a few issues to work out but that there has been a new found energy within the show that will definitely be felt within the upcoming episodes.  The new energy comes partly from moving the location of the show to New York fulltime, and on focusing the storylines more on adult topics. The shows fourth and fifth seasons split there times between Lima, Ohio and New York City.

Don't expect the show to stay in New York for too long though; Murphy plans to move the show yet again when it returns in the fall. "The final season is really its own story and its own location and while the New York stuff will be alive, the final season is really not New York-centric.

The show will also feature a lot less cast members when it returns, centering around only a handful of characters. "It really is a lovely fitting season that really dwells on the original people that were on the show and what happens to them and how they give back. That really is the last season." However, Murphy does say that "anybody who wants to come back can come back." Also mentioning that they will check in with members of the new glee club during the final season to see where they have ended up.

As for the final scene of the series Murphy says he already has it planned and that it has to do with Rachel and Mr. Shue. "It returns them to their origins and their roots about how they felt about each other and when they were all much younger and everything was idyllic. But I think you gotta get back, the ending has to be a reflection and a celebration of how far all those characters have evolved."

The show continues airing its fifth season tonight on Fox.
