Jean Sylvester (sister)Religion None (atheist) Susan "Sue" Sylvester is a fictional character of the Fox musical comedy-drama series, Glee. The character is portrayed by actress Jane Lynch, and has appeared in Glee from its pilot episode, first broadcast on May 19, 2009. Sue was developed by Glee creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan. In Glee, Sue is the coach of the William McKinley High School cheerleading squad, and a ruthless bully to both students and faculty members alike. Because her cheerleading squad competes with the glee club for the school's limited funding, she is often at odds with the club and more particularly its director Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison). Sue Sylvester is the main antagonist of the series.
Due to Lynch's initial limited availability, Sue was originally set to be a recurring character while Lynch was working on a Damon Wayans pilot for ABC. When that pilot fell through, Sue became a starring role. The character has been acclaimed by critics. Mary McNamara for the Los Angeles Times has written that "Lynch alone makes Glee worth watching", while Entertainment Weekly's Ken Tucker has called Sue "the greatest Broadway-musical villain to ever co-star in a TV series". On January 16, 2011, Lynch won the Best Supporting Actress – Series, Miniseries or Television Film Golden Globe Award for her performance in the role, and won the Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her portrayal of Sue Sylvester.

Storylines
Season 1
Throughout the first season of Glee, Sue makes numerous attempts at sabotaging the William McKinley High School glee club, New Directions. She enlists members of her cheerleading squad, the Cheerios, to bring the club down from the inside,[1] and conspires to lure away its star member, Rachel Berry (Lea Michele).[2] Sue is appointed co-director of the club by Principal Figgins (Iqbal Theba),[3] but soon scales back her involvement when her attempts to turn the club members against director Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) fail.[4] Hoping to ruin the club's chances of winning at the show choir Sectionals competition, Sue gives New Directions' setlist to the directors of their rival glee clubs.[5] Despite having to devise a new setlist at the last moment, New Directions win by unanimous decision and Sue is suspended by Figgins.[6] She blackmails him into allowing her back,[7] and is selected as a judge for the show choir Regionals competition. Sue is ridiculed by the other judges for her lack of fame and underdog status, allowing her to empathize with the glee club members. She votes for New Directions to win, and although they place last, she blackmails Figgins into allowing them another year to compete.[8]
Sue's personal life is also explored over the course of the season. She has a commentary feature on the local television news, "Sue's Corner", which she uses to editorialize on issues such as support for caning and littering.[2] She falls in love with news anchor Rod Remington (Bill A. Jones), but their burgeoning relationship comes to an abrupt end when she discovers he is sleeping with his co-anchor, Andrea Carmichael (Earlene Davis).[9] In the episode "Wheels", Sue allows Becky Jackson (Lauren Potter), a sophomore with Down syndrome, to join the Cheerios. Will is suspicious of her motives, increasingly so when Sue donates money to the school to fund three new ramps for students with disabilities. It is revealed that Sue's older sister Jean (Robin Trocki) also has Down syndrome, and lives in a residential care facility.[10] Sue becomes a minor celebrity when Olivia Newton-John invites her to remake the video to "Physical", after a viral video of Sue Jazzercising to the track achieves internet notoriety. She donates her share of the profits to her sister's care home.[11]
Season 2
At the onset of the second season, Sue has formed a truce with Will, and together they conspire against the school's new football coach, Shannon Beiste (Dot Jones). When Will comes to regret his actions and apologizes, Sue renews their enmity.[12] She is appointed acting principal after having Figgins infected with the flu,[13] but although the school board is so impressed with her performance they make her position permanent, she resigns when they refuse to uphold her expulsion of Dave Karofsky (Max Adler), a bully who had threatened to kill glee club member Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer).[14] After Sue learns that Rod and Andrea have become engaged, she announces her intention to marry herself. Her estranged mother Doris (Carol Burnett), a recently retired Nazi hunter, visits in an attempt to make amends for her absentee parenting, but is continuously critical of her daughter, to the point that Sue disinvites her during her wedding ceremony. Doris leaves, and Sue and Jean comfort each other.[14]
Sue grows disillusioned with cheerleading, and in an effort to recapture her love for it, plans to fire cheerleader Brittany Pierce (Heather Morris) from a cannon during the team's next competitive routine. Brittany and her friends Santana Lopez (Naya Rivera) and Quinn Fabray (Dianna Agron) ultimately quit the squad, which loses at Regionals after having won the national title for six straight years. Sue is named Loser of the Year in a televised interview with Katie Couric, and has her budget slashed. Depressed, Sue stages a fake suicide, and as she hoped would happen, is convinced to temporarily join the glee club to lift her spirits, though she really wants to bring down the club from within. When her attempts to do so fail, Sue decides to become the coach of Aural Intensity, one of New Directions' Regionals competitors, and deliberately injures their director in order to get the job. Sue is furious when her club loses to New Directions, and punches the announcer in the face.[15]
More intent than ever on destroying the glee club, Sue forms a "League of Doom", which consists of former glee club director Sandy Ryerson (Stephen Tobolowsky), the coach of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline, Dustin Goolsby (Cheyenne Jackson), and Will's ex-wife Terri Schuester (Jessalyn Gilsig). Their first mission, to ruin a New Directions benefit, fails when Sandy is won over by a performance from Mercedes Jones (Amber Riley) and donates the full amount needed. Devastated by Jean's death from pneumonia, Sue turns to Terri, who has the glee club's plane tickets for Nationals changed from New York to Tripoli. She also removes Becky from the Cheerios, because she reminds her of her sister. Kurt and his stepbrother Finn (Cory Monteith) help Sue to clean out Jean's things, and she accepts their offer to have New Directions perform at the funeral, as she is afraid no one else will come. While going through Jean's belongings, Finn and Kurt discover that Jean's favorite movie was Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, and arrange a funeral inspired by the film. At the well-attended funeral service, an emotional Sue is unable to continue reading her eulogy after a few sentences, and Will reads the remainder for her. The glee club then sings "Pure Imagination", a song from the film. Touched by his support, Sue tells Will he is a good friend and she will no longer go after the glee club. She will instead be running for the United States House of Representatives on a platform of lowering health care costs, as her sister had faced significantly higher bills in her last few years. She then apologizes to Becky, reinstates her as a member of the Cheerios, and tells her she will be captain of the squad next year. As a final act of reconciliation, Sue asks for and receives a hug from Becky.
Season 3
At the start of the third season, Sue's campaign for congress is not going well. She decides to pledge to get rid of all arts programs in schools, music and theater especially, until all students are reading at or above grade level. Will's attempt to embarrass Sue and highlight the value of the arts by glitterbombing her backfires, and Sue's poll numbers rise. She also goes back on her promise to leave the glee club alone by having her new cheerleading co-captains, Becky and Santana, sabotage the club's recruitment drive. As Sue continues to promote her campaign, Will devises a plan with Emma to let someone he knows (namely Kurt's father, Burt Hummel) to run against her in order to thwart her actions from coming into fruition. With Burt taking the challenge in the campaign run, Sue continues to slander her opponent by delivering false statements about his personal life through her political ads. Will and Burt try to come up with a clever response to nullify the false statements, their plans are put on hold when they and Santana head into Sue's office. They are all informed another candidate - aside from her and Burt - is not only smearing Sue, but also using her own Cheerios squad member Santana for her lesbianism as an example. Devestated by her secret being out, Santana runs off crying with Sue apologizing for getting her unintentionally included with the campaign.
Development
Casting and creation
Sue is played by Jane Lynch. The character did not exist when the script for the Glee pilot was first submitted to Fox. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Ryan Murphy said that Fox Entertainment president Kevin Reilly was responsible for her creation. "'On our first call, Kevin said, "You need a villain,"' Murphy remembered. 'And I said, "You know, you're right." I knew exactly who she is. I said, "Her name is Sue Sylvester. And she is the cheerleading coach. And she may be on horse estrogen."'"[16] The casting notice described Sue as "the anal, tightly wound, and ruthlessly ambitious leader of the Harrison High cheer leading squad."[17] At the time she was cast as Sue, Lynch was already committed to do a Damon Wayans pilot for ABC. The Glee role initially had her as a guest star, in the hope that she could become a regular in the future. When the ABC pilot fell through, Lynch became a series regular.[18]
Characterization
Sue is initially presented as the glee club's "arch-nemesis".[18] Following the pilot episode, Lynch said she is "pure evil and doesn't hide it",[19] explaining that she was created as a product of Murphy, Brennan and Falchuk's "inner mean girl".[18] Lynch feels that Sue has the ability to be both "horrible and really delightful at the same time",[20] assessing that she continually speaks her mind as she enjoys appalling people with the things she says.[21] She encapsulates Sue's world view as being about "power and winning", stating that she will do anything to win.[20] Sue's softer side manifests following the revelation that her sister has Down syndrome. She is depicted as kind and loving towards Jean, though Lynch stated that exploration of Sue's humanity would be limited.[21] Sue is an atheist, but according to Murphy, does not want to be. He explained, "She [is] saying to the world, 'Prove [me] wrong: If god is kindness and love, make me believe in god.'"[22] The second season episode "Grilled Cheesus" focuses on the characters' differing approaches to religion. Sue lobbies against the performance of spiritual songs in school, engaging in a philosophical argument on the matter with school guidance counselor Emma Pillsbury (Jayma Mays), which Murphy describes as the scene he is "most proud to have been involved with in [his] entire career."[22]
Musical performances
Sue performs in several of the series' musical numbers. In the first season episode "Mash-Up", she is given a dancing lesson by Will, to Louis Prima's "Sing, Sing, Sing (With a Swing)".[23] Her first vocal performance comes in the episode "The Power of Madonna", in which Sue enacts a frame-by-frame recreation of Madonna's "Vogue".[24] The track features on the extended play record Glee: The Music, The Power of Madonna, released to accompany the episode,[25] and charted at number 106 on the UK singles chart.[26] Sue duets with Olivia Newton-John on her song "Physical" in the episode "Bad Reputation".[27] This track was included on the soundtrack album Glee: The Music, Volume 3 Showstoppers,[28] as well as the compilation albums Glee: The Music, The Complete Season One, and Glee: The Music, The Complete Season One Collection.[29][30] Also released as a single available for download, it charted both on the Billboard Hot 100 and internationally, peaking at number 89 in the US, 88 in Australia, 61 in Canada and 56 in the United Kingdom.[31] During the second season, Sue duets with her mother Doris on "Ohio" from the 1953 musical Wonderful Town.[32] The song was suggested to Murphy by Burnett, who felt that the lyrics were suited to her character's storyline.[33]
Reception
Critical response
Sue was lauded as "the greatest Broadway-musical villain to ever co-star in a TV series" by Entertainment Weekly's Ken Tucker.[34] In an early review, Robert Lloyd of the Los Angeles Times criticized her domination of scenes and flat characterization, commenting: "She's funny from line to line, but there is little to her besides tin-pot contrariness."[35]
Lynch's performance in the role has attracted critical acclaim. Following the pilot episode, Mary McNamara of the Los Angeles Times wrote that she alone makes the series worth watching.[36] IGN's Eric Goldman later assessed that a comic actress such as Lynch is necessary to make the character loveable, given that her key traits include smugness, ignorance and casual racism.[37] The Los Angeles Times Shawna Malcom similarly praised Lynch's portrayal for keeping Sue from being "an over-the-top disaster."[38] Raymund Flandez of The Wall Street Journal suggested that the show would be less fun without Lynch's delivery.[39]
Variety's Brian Lowry was critical of Lynch in early episodes, deeming Glee's adult cast "over-the-top buffoons",[40] and writing that she "chews through her material so relentlessly as to be fitfully funny but usually just plain annoying."[41] The New York Times' Mike Hale wrote that she gives a "one-note performance" in Glee, suggesting that she is miscast in the role, as "her talent for playing repressed nut cases doesn’t extend to playing straightforward Nazis."[42]
Accolades
Lynch has won a number of awards for her portrayal of Sue. At the 2009 Satellite Awards, she won the "Best Supporting Actress in a Series, Miniseries or Television Film" award.[43] The following year, she won "Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series" at the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards, for her performance in the episode "The Power of Madonna".[44] She received the "Individual Achievement in Comedy" award at the 2010 TCA Awards,[45] as well as the "Actress Comedy Series" accolade at the WIN Awards.[46] Lynch was part of the Glee cast ensemble given the "Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series" award at the 16th Screen Actors Guild Awards.[47] She was named "Favorite Female TV Star (Comedy)" at the Lesbian/Bi People's Choice Awards, run by the lesbian media website AfterEllen.com,[48] and won the "TV Performance of the Year: Musical or Comedy" award at the inaugural Dorian Awards, reflecting gay interest in the TV industry.[49][50] The following year, Lynch tied in the same category with co-star Chris Colfer.[51] 2011 also saw Lynch named "Best Supporting Actress in a Series, Miniseries or Television Film" at the 68th Golden Globe Awards,[52] and "Favorite TV Comedy Actress" at the 37th People's Choice Awards.[53]
The role has earned Lynch nominations for several further awards. She was nominated in the "Best Supporting Actress in a Series, Miniseries or Television Film" category at the 67th Golden Globe Awards,[54] and for "Best Supporting Actress" at the 2010 Satellite Awards.[55] Also in 2010, Sue was nominated "Choice TV: Villain" at the Teen Choice Awards,[56] and Lynch was nominated for the "Favorite TV Actress" award at the AfterEllen.com Visibility Awards.[57] In 2011, she was nominated for the "Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series" award at the 17th Screen Actors Guild Awards, and was also part of an ensemble nomination for "Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series".[58]
Impact
Lynch was selected as the 2010 principal honoree of Madame Tussauds wax museum in Hollywood. A wax figure of Lynch as Sue was created, featuring the character's trademark tracksuit and bullhorn.[59] At the August unveiling of the figure, Brennan commented that Sue would approve of being immortalized in such a manner.[60]
