GLEE star Kevin McHale stopped by "The HuffPost Show" on Friday and shared that the possibility of a spinoff of the FOX musical dramedy are very slim.

"Towards the end, there weren't that many people watching 'Glee.' So I don't know how many people would then watch a spinoff," McHale joked, adding, "We're off the air for a reason."

The actor went on to share his belief that following the death of star Cory Monteith in July 2013, the cast and crew were never really able to recover. "When Cory Monteith died I don't think the show ever came back from that -- and it wasn't for a lack of trying, but the story was going in one direction with this character and he was one of two main characters on the show. So I think after that, just the vibe on set was different."

He added, "It was just weird for us being there, never mind actually filming it. Being one of the writers in that situation, I don't know what I would have done, because I don't really want to be here and never mind having to think of storylines revolving around these characters anymore."

Following a six-season run, GLEE aired its final episode on March 20th.
