>What is the alleged Glee “curse” and why are people upset about the idea?
>It’s as simple as it sounds: because eight people involved with the show have died (three cast members and five crew members), some have pushed the narrative that there was a “curse” on Glee. Monteith died of an accidental heroin overdose in between the filming of Glee’s fourth and fifth seasons. In 2015, Salling was arrested for possession of child pornography and two years later, he pleaded guilty. He died by suicide in January 2018, just two months before his sentencing. Rivera died by accidental drowning after saving her son while swimming in a lake near their home in California in 2020.
>Outside of the tragic deaths of three major cast members, there were deaths among the crew as well. Two members died of a heart attack: Jim Fuller, an assistant director, and a man named Paul, who was in charge of props. In addition to Salling, there were two more deaths by suicide: Nancy Motes, a production assistant, and an unnamed rigger. The main stand-in for Matthew Morrison, Mark Watson, died in a car crash.
