A phenomenon in the US, Glee follows an optimistic secondary school
teacher as he attempts to inspire an oddball group of students to
realise their star potential and restore the school's show choir - the
glee club - to its former glory. In the pilot episode, teacher Will
Schuester - or Mr Schu - begs the headteacher - Principal Figgins - to
let him take on the Herculean task of transforming this group of
underdogs into a world-class vocal ensemble.
The pupils who join
the club are; Mercedes, who believes she is the new Aretha Franklin;
Kurt, the fashion-conscious falsetto; Tina, a punk-rocker; Artie who
plays guitar and is bullied for being geeky; and the diva-in-the-making
Rachel. Glee Club rehearsals get off to a rocky start; Rachel feels
that without a formidable male lead to match her talent, they will
never be taken seriously. Principal Figgins then threatens to cancel
the club in favour of renting the auditorium out. He and Schu strike a
bargain: if the club earns a spot in regionals, the club can stay. And
then Schu comes across Finn, the school's popular quarterback with a
Motown voice.
