The Glee cast has dealt with the deaths of multiple co-stars, weathered numerous tabloid scandals, and now, they are being asked to relive every struggle thanks to the new docuseries The Price of Glee.
(Warning: Discussion of suicide, addiction, and domestic abuse ahead.)
The Price of Glee which premiered on ID this past Monday and is now streaming on Discovery+, is an insult to not only fans of Ryan Murphy’s hit show, but also an act of disrespect to the Glee cast. The three-part documentary examines several scandals and the three main cast deaths (Monteith, Mark Salling, and Naya Rivera), blaming the show’s popularity every step of the way. Thinly sourced and dramatized to the high heavens, The Price of Glee should be ignored and discarded like the gossipy trash it is.
