Fox television network said on Sunday there were no plans for a spin-off of its television musical comedy Glee.

But fans will likely be pleased that Lea Michele, one of the show's leads, will still be part of the show's upcoming season in which the characters graduate, said Kevin Reilly, Fox Entertainment president, at the Television Critics Association panels held in Los Angeles.

"There will not be a Glee spin-off, but those characters will graduate and it's led to a really interesting idea that I think is going to give us something really cool to dig into next season," he said, referring to the fates of the lead characters after they graduate high school.
