    As a human being, I'm sorry he's dead, but honestly? He'd been using drugs and drinking heavily since his teens, he was in rehab recently - it's very easy to see that happening.

    Also, in re: his talent - what talent? He read as very stiff, unnatural, awkward, on screen; his singing was subpar; his dancing was awful - not in a "my character can't dance, so this is intentional" kind of way, but in a "genuinely can't dance, has no rythm or coordination" kind of way.

    I say this, not to degrade the dead, but because death does not make you perfect. It makes you dead. We should stop glamorizing the dead and glossing over their faults because of some primal fear of angry spirits or divine retribution.

    well, it is kind of rude but true

    I enjoyed the show with its flaws, never liked his character but still. He was depressed, and I know how it feels.

    I never said that it wasn't. The loss of any life is tragic and terrible, but my issue is with the unyielding, fanatical defence of his many virtues and unending skill when he really didn't have any and, honestly, the only change is his death.

    I didn't intend to be rude, I didn't intend to make light of this situation, and I most certainly didn't intend to be a ****. I simply intended to speak my mind.

    now that is REALLY rude.

    Yes he lacked the talent, yet he inspired many kids who could identify with him (being awkward and untalented, it gives awkward untalented kids hope), plus I am sure you wouldn't do it any better and throwin **** at somebody isn't really nice.

    Geez relax..when anyone dies at such a young age its sad and tragic, I don't care who it is. And frankly booking a job in this town is not easy and he obviously had talent to get to where he was, it really doesn't just happen randomly like some people might think. He earned his keep and he was talented enough over thousands of other men who auditioned for his role. Drug addiction is horrible.

    Such a negative response to someone dying.

    Wow! well that is sad news, putting a side if he is talented or not, it is sad that he had those kind of troubles and adictions.

    I hope he rests in peace.
