Will Schuester is a Giant Man-Child

I've seen up the Madonna episode (15/22), so there may be spoilers for anything up to that point. We're taking about Glee, by the way.


So, Will Schue. Here are the facts as I know them, to illustrate exactly why I believe Will Schue has never grown up.

  • Will Schue stills work at the High School he attended during his own school days. He (presumably) left to obtain a degree and Qualified Teacher Status, and then came back - as if he'd never left.
  • He took control of the Glee Club in a self-confessed attempt to bring them back to the glory they enjoyed when he was a student. He often joins in with the students while rehearsing, rather than taking more of a back seat as a director.
  • For much of the series, he was still with his high school girlfriend.
  • When she wished to distract him from her non-existent pregnancy, she knew that the best way to do that was with a replica of the car he owned as a teenager.
  • In his new relationship, he used the exact song as he had at the beginning of his old one.
  • He is currently having essentially the same relationship as Rachel Berry, a student more than a decade younger than he is (with regards to new partners and virginity issues).
There was more, but that will do for now.
