Kevin McHale is pushing back hard against fans who describe "Glee" as cursed in the wake of the deaths of three main cast members. The actor, who played Artie Abrams on the Fox series, used angry language to reject that label and criticize people continuing to spread it.
The renewed debate appears to be tied in part to recent comments from "Glee" co-creator Ryan Murphy, who said he has thought about rebooting the hit musical drama. That idea quickly sparked discussion online, including familiar claims that the show should not return because of the tragedies linked to members of its cast.
McHale's response makes clear he sees those comments as offensive rather than reflective. Instead of accepting the "cursed" narrative, he called out fans for turning real losses into a sensational talking point.
His remarks highlight how any conversation about a possible "Glee" reboot is likely to be shaped not only by nostalgia for the series, but also by strong emotions around its history. For McHale, the latest wave of reaction crossed a line.
