Fox also released an official synopsis for the final season, confirming many unofficial rumors about where the series was going, plot-wise.

"New Directions' original star, Rachel Berry (Golden Globe Award nominee Lea Michele), comes home to Lima, after her humiliating failure as a TV actress, and discovers that Sue Sylvester (Emmy Award winner Jane Lynch) has banished the arts at McKinley. Throughout its closing season, McKinley alumnae will return to say "good-bye" to the award-winning and groundbreaking musical comedy."

As discussed, the series will air for 11 uninterrupted weeks through early 2015.

Fox also released a poster for the final season of Glee, which features Sue Sylvester giving one her trademark intense looks alongside the message "We're moving to Fridays. Deal with it."

The final season of Glee is set to feature many of the show's graduated characters returning to their hometown of Lima, Ohio. This allows the series to go full circle after many of the characters either went their separate ways (Quinn) or collectively moved to New York (Kurt, Santana, Blaine, Sam, etc.).
