DVD: Glee – Road to Sectionals, For retail & rental (20th Century Fox)

The first few episodes of this dramedy about the kids in a US high-school "glee" club – and all the turmoil that involves – provided some of the best TV of the past few years.

Jane Lynch is the stand-out star, as an acid-tongued cheerleader coach – but as the series progresses, her minutes on screen diminish, as does the quality of the show. Where at first the songs fit the situations perfectly, their relevance slowly fades. Fun throughout, but not quite the world-beater it first seems.
