Happy birthday, Darren Criss! Last year, we paid homage to the stud with a very special ode. And after another year of success, we wanted to show some love to DC again by dedicating his big day to his two biggest claims to fame: Team Starkid and Glee. A Very Potter Musical‘s what made everyone see Darren as the supermegafoxyawesomehot guy he is, but the FOX show put him on the television map. So, although there’s room to be a part of both fandoms, we just gotta ask: Which do you prefer Darren as — in Team Starkid or on Glee? (Or, basically, are you a bigger Starkid or Gleek?) Let these GIFs help you decide, then vote in our poll!

Starkid! I used to be a Gleek during the first season, but I really don’t like what it’s doing now. And I love Darren as a Starkid more because I feel like that’s his true home. The people from Starkid are his best friends.
SK all the way!
Always Starkid!!! Glee is not only a terrible show, but Starkid is where he will always be remembered! Would you rather people think of you as the gay guy in glee or guy who was in wonderful musicals with the people he loved?! I miss Starkid Darren! That’s the first thing I think of when I hear his name.
Darren more perfect on glee.
Both, he is perfect in both no matter what anyone else thinks!
Starkid. Without Team Starkid, Darren would not have all the success he has now. Plus they defined him as supermegafoxyawesomehot which is obviously true.
Starkid will always be Darren’s home. He is always happy when he’s with his best friends.
Gleek. Darren being on glee allows him to achieve his dream of being an actor and it gives him the platform to reach more opportunities such as movies, Broadway, and his music. Darren loves glee and people who say he’s happier with Starkid are being selfish. Both make him happy. Glee lets him reach for the moon instead of just gazing at it from a roof.
Darren is ALWAYS happiest when he is with Team Starkid… #Fact
