Watch Sue Sylvester Zing Mr. Schuester to Diminishing Returns in New Clip from Glee's Season Premiere

OMGlee, you guys. In two short weeks, Glee will return to the airwaves with its much-anticipated second season and bring with it a whole new slew of Gleegasms (and other Glee-related wordplay). An earlier promo teased a couple of upcoming moments -- like the cast singing "Empire State of Mind" while dancing with choreography straight out of Ferris Bueller's Day Off -- but this new clip from the season premiere offers fans a chance to see something previously unseen: Jane Lynch saddled with subpar material.

What looks like one of the opening minutes of "Audition" has wound up online and it's...stiff? Stale? Just plain unfunny? The Emmy-winning Lynch is a wizard as Sue Sylvester, but none of the zingers she drops on the blank slate that is Matthew Morrison's Will Schuester register much more than a smirk. No reason to panic just yet, but if this is what Lynch sounds like when she has to make do with less than exceptional writing, the clearly happening Sue-centric Saturday Night Live skit just got a lot less interesting. Watch below.
