Glee is monster-sizing its Lady Gaga episode.

On April 26, the Fox hit plans to air a 90-minute show, appropriately dubbed “Born this Way.” Matthew Morrison’s Mr. Schuester will teach the glee club about self-acceptance and self-expression through Gaga songs.

Thus far this season, the Emmy-winning show is averaging 10.2 million total viewers, according to the Nielsen Co. Among the advertiser-beloved 18 to 49 set, 5.4 million viewers have regularly tuned in. The series has also shrewdly parleyed its popularity across multiple channels, including a live concert tour, album sales and more than 22 million song downloads.
