Kevin McHale has had enough with the chatter about a possible “curse” involving Glee.

“Let me log off today because the way too many of you talk about real people who have passed as a ‘sacrifice’ or a ‘curse’ in regards to a TV show is f***ing diabolical and untethered from any sort of humanity or reality,” McHale, 38, wrote via X on Wednesday, July 29. “Get f***ed.”

While it’s unclear what specifically caused McHale to speak out, the 2023 docuseries The Price of Glee was a three-part special that looked back on the deaths of several cast members, including Cory Monteith, who died from a drug overdose in 2013. He was 31.

Five years later, Mark Salling died by suicide at the age of 35, shortly after pleading guilty to possession of child pornography in 2018.

Naya Rivera also tragically died from an accidental drowning in 2020 after saving her son during a boat accident. She was 33.

“It’s so tiring to read the comments of people who said something unnecessary like that. Please stop,” one fan commented in support of McHale’s post. Another user added, “I’ve always HATED seeing people talk about this. It’s so f***ing disrespectful to their memory and to their families and friends. I’ve always spoken up about it, and I’ll keep saying how cruel and thoughtless it is. It pisses me off so much!!!!!”

Glee, which ran from 2009 to 2015, followed optimistic teacher Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) as he led McKinley High School’s glee club. The group was a place where ambitious and talented students could find strength, acceptance and their voice.

“I loved them all. I had a great time making that show,” cocreator Ryan Murphy told People in an interview published on Tuesday, July 28. “That show is interesting because it’s come back around. So many young people now watch it. And I’m like, ‘Maybe we should revisit that show.’”

He continued, “My nostalgia and love for that show is enough that I’m like, ‘Well, maybe people would like to see a new incarnation of that in some capacity.’ So yeah, I love that show and I loved what it became and what it meant to so many people.”

One scene McHale and his costar Jenna Ushkowitz find a little “eerie” is an episode in season 3 where Finn (Monteith) learned that his father died of a drug overdose.

The scene “hit a little too close to home,” Ushkowitz, 40, said during a January 2024 episode iHeartRadio’s “And That’s What You REALLY Missed” podcast.

McHale agreed, “Way, way too close.”
