Optimistic teacher Will Schuester heads up McKinley High School's glee club -- New Directions -- a place where ambitious and talented students can find strength, acceptance and their voice. As the students find themselves, they also enjoy a respite from the harsh realities of life. Mr. Schuester hopes to help the kids in every way he can, and also dreams of taking the group to nationals. As Schuester and the glee club pursue their goal, they face opposition from a conniving cheerleading coach, Sue Sylvester, who tries to sabotage the group at every turn.

Critics Consensus

Glee loses some of its spark in this reprise, but the series still delights with its frothy musical numbers and sensitive engagement with pressing social issues.

Increasingly the show is just an excuse to connect musical interludes, and as people more learned in the field of music have remarked, the interludes are less and less good as time goes on. Go to Full Review Joe Reid The Atlantic 02/28/2019
The significant problems that made themselves aware in Glee's first season really flourished in the second. Inconsistencies in character, ill-advised theme episodes, a Super Bowl episode that was shockingly forgettable. Go to Full Review Kevin Fallon The Atlantic 02/28/2019
Glee has been undeniably frustrating in season two, but whether it's Mercedes torching an Otis Redding song or Blaine and Kurt's adorable romance, there was still ample reason to tune in and enjoy. Go to Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures 02/28/2019
3/5
Glee is a still a cute show, but even in its early second season, the storytelling through song has been lost, and the tunes have become nothing more than an excuse to sell iTunes downloads. Go to Full Review Ethan Anderton Collider 02/28/2019
Has less catty drama, more hilarity (Heather Morris' flaky cheerleader Brittany has become one of my favorite parts of the entire series) and (no pun intended) new directions for all of our characters. Go to Full Review Chris Gardner The Post NZ 02/28/2019
The show hinges on Jane Lynch as Sue Sylvester. Sue might be one of the funniest characters on TV right now Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Special episodes and special appearances that made the series a total phenomenon. It was the season that excited me the most and also the one that has the best song in my opinion and I'm talking about "I Feel Pretty / Unpretty" where Lea and Diana bring everything most beautiful with clean vocals and delicious to listen to. Best season. See more Read all reviews
