Due to the record breaking success of their first ‘Britney Spears‘ tribute episode, ‘Glee‘ producers announced plans for a second episode this Fall.

Set to be the second episode of the series’ fourth season, this hour homage to Brit Brit will feature eight of her songs but won’t focus on the character of Brittany (Heather Morris) as the first tribute did (Spears is not scheduled to appear in the episode as of now but producers are hoping to work out a deal).

The reason for the Spears hour is because the network is so excited about the pairing of a Spears/X-Factor with Glee on Thursday nights. It also certainly doesn’t hurt that the original Britney tribute, which aired early in the second season, is still one of Glee’s highest-rated episode to date. (EW)

I thought the episode was a great one, however not great enough for a second one. I would honestly take another Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston tribute before another Britney Spears. Never-less I will still be watching, I’m just not overly excited. Are you excited for another Britney episode?
