Jane Lynch on the graduating Gleeks: Ryan Murphy "rarely makes bad calls"

Menzel appeared in Glee's first season as the coach of Vocal Adrenaline and a love interest of Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison). After learning that Rachel was her daughter, the two tried to bond, but Shelby left town after adopting Quinn and Puck's baby in the finale. When she returns for Season 3, Shelby will join McKinley High as a new teacher.
