Cory Monteith (Glee) Found Dead in Vancouver Hotel Room

CNN Story

I just saw this on twitter and was completely shocked. Last time I heard about him was that he had checked into rehab but this is just unreal. While the show is not as good as it once was, I did like Finn, and his storyline of becoming a teacher because he was great leading the Glee Club. I really do wonder what Glee will do (Or if they will even address this) but keeping things to real life, just wow.

RIP

I'm just stunned right now. I just got a notification from my CNN app. So sad.

Edit: While I don't watch Glee, it's sad to hear another celebrity die from drug overdose. He was young and a successful actor. My thoughts are with his family and friends.

Shocked. What a sad turn of events. 31 is way too young.

 

[propita]

Had a lot going for him. Sad.

Yeah I gave up on glee a long time ago. But I realise it's importance in pop culture and what it's done for introducing many children to the wonders of music and dance. Such a shame. He seemed like a loveable, yet troubled, young man. RIP.

Such terrible and sad news to wake up to.

Shocked.

 

[Australis]

Not a fan but terrible news. I liked some of the songs he sang. Deepest sympathy to family and friends.

My wife watched the first season so I caught the odd episode when it was on. Sad to hear.

Considering he and the main chick were (are?) an item I doubt the show will continue.

^Even if Fox had given the show 2 new seasons?

 

[Angel4576]

The show will continue. I'd imagine it's just a case of whether or not Lea Michele does.

Wouldn't blame her if she couldn't.

 

[Kestra]

Wow, that's awful. I hate seeing this happen to such young people.

The show will continue. I'd imagine it's just a case of whether or not Lea Michele does.

If Lea Michele doesn't continue, than I think the show is dead. She and Monteith really were the show.

Well I wouldn't argue with that personally, but I'm sure Fox will likely have other ideas.

It is always sad when a fellow human being, especially one with a promising career, dies from suspected drug abuse. May he find peace. I remember that he also appeared in SG1 and SGA.

 

[Flibble]

That is so sad. He was so young. RIP.

 

[trekkiebaggio]

Just woke up to this news. Pretty shocked. I'm a big Glee fan and I really liked his character and what they were doing with his story.

 

[Locutus of Bored]

I'm sorry to hear that. RIP.

 

[StarMan]

Yikes. Far too young (same age as me!). What a damn shame.

 

[CaptainCanada]

I knew he'd had problems with substance abuse, but I never expected to wake up to this news.

He was one of my favourite characters on the show back when the show was good, though I don't think any character suffered more from bad writing than Finn did later on, and I came to hate the character. But I hoped to see more good stuff from Cory in the future.

R.I.P. You will be missed. My prayers go out to the family. I really like the show (Glee).
