Beloved and I have been binge-watching Glee lately, which is now available on Netflix in its entirety. It never fails to lift our spirits, and it’s a great way to unwind at night before bed. We just got to Season 1, Episode 15, The Power of Madonna. In it, the show’s villain, Sue Sylvester (played by the incomparable Jane Lynch) recreates Madonna’s iconic music video for Vogue. The song is sung by Lynch, and the video is an absolutely perfect tribute.
First is the Glee version, followed by the original. What an epic victory for Lynch and the show!

There is only one. I have been a high Madonna fan since she first came on the scene. She is one of the all-time bests IMO. The TV show did a good job. Cher is another one that can never be duplicated. “Half breed” remains in my top ten to this day. Hal

I love Jane Lynch. I love ‘A Mighty Wind’ and ‘Best in Show’ and she is probably my favourite character in both. I love the way she balances dry and goofy in her comic performances.

Oh, it’s soooo good. We’re really loving it (all over again). We allow ourselves 2-3 episodes a day before bed. Totally lowers the blood pressure.

I’ve been a huge Jane Lynch fan since her improv days – her work in “Best in Show” was truly brilliant.

I love her so completely. We’ve adored her in everything she’s in. If you didn’t watch Glee, there’s an episode where Carol Burnett plays her mother and they sing a duet. Heartbreaking!
