First debuting on Fox on May 19th, 2009, Ryan Murphy’s musical teen-drama Glee would run for 6 seasons, and air 121 episodes before eventually coming to an end on March 20th, 2015.
The series is set in Lima, Ohio at the fictional William Mckinley High school, where teacher Will Schuster, a former Glee club alumni, discovers that jocks now run the school and Glee is a joke. Determined to return the club to its former glory, Will recruits a talented but unpopular group of students with the goal of winning nationals, but standing in their way are bullying jocks, rivalries, drama, and Sue Sylvester, the serial winning coach of the cheerleading squad.

Why is Glee leaving Netflix?
All six seasons of Glee were a welcome addition to the global library in June 2019. However, as a licensed series, this was only ever going to be temporary, which means Netflix’s 36-month license for the series is officially coming to an end.

Many of the other Ryan Murphy FOX and FX titles such as American Horror Story and American Crime Story can also be found on Disney+.
Will Glee ever return to Netflix?
We cannot definitively claim that Glee will never return to Netflix. As a popular series, and one of the most binged on Netflix there is a chance that the license could one day return.
