We can't remember the last time we've been this excited for an hour of television.

Glee's Michael Jackson tribute is still too far away (Jan. 31?!), but Fox has released photos from the episode to obsess over until then.

Why don't you join us?

Just based on the promo and the things we've heard from our sources and the cast, Glee is going to once again nail a tribute episode.

And we've got a feeling that Santana (Naya Rivera) and Sebastian's (Grant Gustin) "Smooth Criminal" will be a big highlight of the episode, right up there with Brittany's (Heather Morris) "Slave 4 U" from the Britney Spears tribute and Sue's (Jane Lynch) "Vogue" from the Madonna episode.

But then again, this whole damn episode looks like it'll be full of epic musical moments that we'll be talking about for weeks to come. Peep these hot photos from "Michael," and then head to the comments for some much-needed "can't wait!" type conversation.

Check out the promo below, where we get a sneak peek at the "Smooth Criminal" number, and we (almost) get an answer to, you know, that big question Finn (Cory Monteith) asked his girlfriend Rachel (Lea Michele).

Glee returns with new episodes on Jan. 31 on Fox.
