5. John Stamos
Dr. Carl Howell managed to break down several of Emma's walls, and as a Rocky Horror enthusiast, he reminded us of that sweet voice we've been missing since Jesse and the Rippers disappeared from our lives.
4. Neil Patrick Harris
Harris won an Emmy for his role as Bryan Ryan, Will Schuester's high school glee-club nemesis (back from a time when mullets were considered cool), whose glee-club days were far behind him — he went from King's Island performer to West Lima crack-district denizen (Ohio really needs to do something about this drug problem) — or so we thought. Highlights included a powerful ''Dream On'' duet with Matthew Morrison and the introduction of Ryan's show-choir conversion group (of which Brenda Castle is also a member).
3. Jonathan Groff
It was a Spring Awakening reunion when former costar Jonathan Groff became Lea Michele's new love interest Jesse St. James in season 1. Jesse transferred to McKinley midyear to join New Directions and be by Rachel's side, but it was his performances for rival Vocal Adrenaline (''Another One Bites the Dust,'' ''Bohemian Rhapsody'') that really impressed us. Yes, he was a hotshot (''UCLA. Ever heard of it? It's in California''), but he certainly could back it up. Oh, Jesse, raw eggs never hurt so bad.
2. Idina Menzel
The Broadway diva played the part of Rachel's biological mother and Vocal Adrenaline coach, Shelby Corcoran, with the right amount of emotional detachtment and competitive spirit. With her striking resemblance to Lea Michele, their mother-daughter duets on ''I Dreamed a Dream'' and ''Poker Face'' were like gifts from the diva heavens, and have had us waiting for her return to the Broadway stage ever since.
1. Kristin Chenoweth
As former McKinley queen bee April Rhodes, Chenoweth brought immense likability to the pint-size fallen diva who is partial to daytime wine and always happy to share shoplifting techniques. Even though having April join New Directions was a little weird, Chenoweth's voice is undeniable. Plus, she was the perfect bad influence the kids needed, if only for a day or two, just to prove they had what it takes to be cool
These are my top 5 choices. Personally, I can't wait for any of them to return. Personally, Kristin Chenoweth, hopefully she guest stars in Season 2 soon. I'll also like to see Idina Menzel return to see how she's doing with little Beth. And Jonathan Groff to tell Rachel to watch herself at Regionals.
