Glee isn't a show I watch regularly; I've probably only seen about a third of the episodes over all the seasons, but I think they did pretty well. I think it was a good idea to not specify how Finn died, because the episode was about saying goodbye to him, not about HOW he died. Besides, I think everyone who watches it know how Cory died anyway, so why rehash it?When they said that they would write his death into the show, but they were not going to have it drug-related, I figured they would do something like texting and driving or something like that. I actually enjoyed it better BECAUSE they didn't say how it happened.

I think the thing during the credits where they spoke about addiction and gave a number was enough.
