'Glee' spin-off officially dead

FOX president Kevin Reilly says that the proposed "Glee" spin-off -- which likely would've followed Lea Michele and Chris Colfer's characters graduate McKinley High and try to make it in New York City -- is officially not happening, says FOX president Kevin Reilly.

But that doesn't mean graduating seniors like Michele's Rachel Berry won't be back: Reilly confirms that although her character is graduating, she will be staying on the show. "We are graduating the characters," he says. "Ryan and the guys have come up with a really cool idea. There will not be a 'Glee' spinoff, but I think it will be something cool."

So, there you go: Although the current New Directions seniors are still graduating, they will not be leaving on the show. Want any more details? Too bad. "That's all I can say about it now," Reilly says. "No spin-off, characters graduating, cool season next year."

Any ideas on this "really cool idea"? We honestly can't begin to dream of what they're contemplating.

Some of the characters look like they've flunked 12th grade a dozen times.  Oy Veh.

Here's an idea!!!  If you don't like it, change stations!!  Maybe Jersey Shore is more to your liking!!  Now that is a total waste of airtime!!

I find it funny in the extreme that people who "Hate this show, would never watch it" neverthe less read every story about it that comes up on the web.....I don't know about you, but when I hate something, I don't read stories about it, I ignore them and move on to the next. Just sayin'

Glee seems too much like High School Musical. Both are getting annoying.
