Glee season 6 finale: From Rachel to Mr Schue, the best and worst characters to grace the show
As the all-singing series draws to an end, we round up the characters who will be missed the most - and those we could've lived without
Glee is about to come to the end of its six-year run with a two-part finale, and many original cast members will be returning to say goodbye.
At its best Glee is a stirring celebration of the power of pop culture, kept afloat by a large cast of interesting, evolving characters; at its worst, it’s a messily plotted, preachy love-in seemingly dedicated to fulfilling contractual obligations to Jane Lynch.
In celebration of Glee’s six years, here’s a run-down of the show’s best - and worst - characters:
The best
1. Rachel Berry (Lea Michele)
2. Santana Lopez (Naya Rivera)
3. April Rhodes (Kristin Chenoweth)
4. Finn Hudson (Cory Monteith)
5. Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer)
6. Blaine Anderson (Darren Criss)
7. Brittany S. Pierce (Heather Morris)
8. Jesse St. James (Jonathan Groff)
9. Mercedes Jones (Amber Riley)
10. Terri Schuester (Jessalyn Gilsig)
In Season 1 Terri had her husband fooled with a fake pregnancy for about five months. This is the kind of zany plotting that worked well in Season 1, and by Season 6 had become unbearable.
And the worst:
1. Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison)
2. Joe Hart (Samuel Larsen)
3. Cassandra July (Kate Hudson)
4. Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch)
5. Adam Crawford (Oliver Kieran-Jones)
