Smooth down that crazy mohawk, Puck! Your dad's coming back to town!

We have confirmed the casting of Melrose Place vet Thomas Calabro as Puck's (Mark Salling) father on Glee

According to TVLine.com, Mr. Puckerman will return to Puck's life in episode 18, which is scheduled to run in April.

We can't help but wonder if Puck's dad has anything to do with this character description that he told you about in a recent spoiler chat:

This new character is in his 40s, and his life is in shambles. He dropped out of high school, left his wife and hasn't paid child support in a long time. Word on the street is he might stick around on Glee.

 Hmmm, the wheels are spinning indeed.

What do you guys think of this casting? Happy to meet Puck's family and see more of his home life?
