The Price of Glee

What an exploitative cash grab. Do not watch this!!!

This "documentary" is a collection of half-truths, hearsay and lies, presented by a bunch of oppotunists. Non of the cast-members of the actual show were involved in this, a lot of them have spoken out against it.

The producers of this should be ashamed of themselves, especially since they had the chance to create an actually interesting documentary.

Focusing on the unrelated deaths of several cast members was absolutely disgusting. The poster alone is terrible: putting Cory and Naya next to Mark and the claiming that their deaths was a result of the show ("the price of glee") is unacceptable.

Again: DO NOT WATCH THIS.

I'm a huge gleek; I've been following this cast and this story and the way they put the blame on specific people; the tabloid type headlines , the sinister music . What a piece of s***, what a disrespect for the ones who are not alive to tell their stories. Or the people that made mistakes and this kind of narrative the only thing that do is reflecting one the sensationalism of the DEATH of 3 human beings, and in the current lives of the rest of cast and crew members.

The entertainment journalists; I've never heard of them regarding glee, the way they say they have a curse, everything is bad and very disrespectful of the human tragedies and making it just a click bait story is a shame.

There was some basic and interesting information in this show which is labeled a documentary, but it really felt like the show highlights only the things that are dramatic and controversial, and what appeals to people who like tabloids. It didn't feel respectful to the actors who had died or to the principles of what should be called a documentary. I couid still watch something while acknowledging these flaws, but I found myself losing interest and struggled to pay attention. It felt like they were trying to draw out the information they had to keep the drama going. I can't recommend this show.

This was absolutely horrendous for a multitude of ways- it's awful for all of obvious reasons: the people in this series feel so icky and gross. Especially someone like Justin, who becomes an apparent leech almost immediately. And what a shocker, there's a headshot and an IMDb profile for the guy. Or the hairdresser who says 'oh I feel like I shouldn't even say this!' Okay then DO NOT SAY IT.

There's the issue of Co.ry's OD- and what is glaringly apparent yet not a single person will say, IT LIES COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY IN HIS HANDS. Period. I don't care who told him it was okay, or who pushed him to work hard, or the myriad excuses poured out- it is absolutely on him to take his sobriety seriously, and he didn't.

Then the crux of the discussion- Ryan Murphy. I don't know if he's the new and improved Harvey of Hollywood, bot you won't hear anyone on camera saying what an absolute monster he is. You'll hear it whispered, credited to anonymous sources, and people constantly dropping over that are associated with his productions, but he's constantly elevated to deity status when it can be sussed out. Behind the scenes? There's constant turmoil where he's concerned. Even in this salacious nonsense, there's barely any negativity around this absolute narcissist, and is the worst kept secret sans Harvey.

This is horrifically bad, just skip it.

There's no substance here, it's basically just hours of vamping as people who had minimal interaction with the cast members reflect on their limited experience. No new information, the same video clips and photos with different special effects and dramatic music to change the tone... it's all speculation and ultimately draws no meaningful conclusions or lessons for viewers.

Some of the participants flat out admit that their only source for the things they say is social media. If close friends and loved ones aren't participating in the documentary, if the law enforcement handling these cases didn't get involved in the story telling, those are immediate red flags.

Repetitive to the point of nauseating.
