“Sue Sylvester would make the show explosive … but it might be kind of warlike, angry and violence. A show with Jane Lynch would be a lot nicer and easier to digest."

Jane is nominated for an Emmy herself, for Supporting Actor/Actress in a Comedy but says that is the last thing on her mind at the moment. "I think my nerves will be mostly focused on doing the show," she said.

The 51-year-old actress added that Sue would tell her to: "Somehow find a way to give all the awards to yourself!"
