Here is some good news for Gleeks: "Glee" season 6, the final season of the TV series, will be released sometime in fall 2014.

Season 5's latest episodes have been prominently featuring three favorite "Glee" actors: Darren Criss (Blaine Anderson), Chris Colfer (Kurt Hummerl), and Lea Michele (Rachel Berry). In a previous statement, Michele was quoted as saying that Kevin McHale (Artie Abrams) and Chord Overstreet (Sam Evans) are included in this final series.

The setting of season 6 is New York and all regular cast members were invited by series creator Ryan Murphy to return for season 6's finale, much like the memorable 100th episode. This includes the original members of the titular Glee club, teachers and all those who wanted to return to the show. Heather Morris has taken Murphy up on his offer to appear in at least one or two episodes, but it is not clear yet how many episodes she will be in, as she is a new mother and avoiding extensive acting roles in order to focus on parenting.

Kevin McHale (Artie Abrams) will definitely be returning as he was spotted filming in New York with Lea Michele for the new episodes. "New York. New backpack. #AllBlackErrythang," he tweeted along with a photo.

Chris Colfer will reportedly be writing an episode for "Glee" season 6. "I think we're going to do something ... with animals and the elderly. I kind of have this shot to do a really selfish episode, which if it was for me, I would probably have done a Miley Cyrus tribute episode. But I'm trying to do the best episode that I can, rather than do something selfish," Colfer said.

The returning cast of "Glee" includes Dianna Agron (as Quinn Fabray), Chris Colfer (Kurt Hummel), Jessalyn Gilsig (Terri Schuester), Jane Lynch (Sue Sylvester), Jayma Mays (Emma Pillsbury), Kevin McHale (Artie Abrams), Lea Michele (Rachel Berry), Matthew Morrison (Will Schuester), Amber Riley (Mercedes Jones), Mark Salling (Noah Puckerman), and Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina Cohen-Chang). McKinley will return on Season 6, as confirmed by Ryan Murphy during a TVLine chat.
