I used to think he was alright, but Glee pretty much ruined him for me. I think I was more excited for a gay love rendition of Teenage Dream than I was for Darren Criss. Never really thought he was that cute, and without The Warblers to back him up, he doesn't really seem that talented. I'm indifferent to him now.
I turned on him when he and his management started get his pictures put on 'blacklists' on gay sites so ultimately ANY picture of Darren Criss is now banned from many gay sites.
You would assume someone only getting so much fame because an old gay man is attracted to him would be less homophobic, but apparently not.
I'm not sure when it happened, but it's partially because we're not allowed to like anything for too long and partially because the character's not very well-written or interesting. (Apparently that's Darren's fault...?) Oh, and because his stans are INSAAAAAAAAANE.
this. this this.
