Not OP but (rolling my eyes at the people above - maybe that is why the OP found him creepy, but this is a 'puritanical' decade? Lol... anyways...) I found him a bit creepy in his first appearances because he comes off as very smiley, almost too perfect, very 'constructed'.
I think it is very much a remnant of Barrowman's theatre acting that he does't shake when he's on camera - the way he talks, the way he holds himself, and the way he emotes feels like he is a cardboard cut-out* that has accidentally landed in the scene, and it can be a bit uncanny valley.

* Not saying his acting is bad, but just imagine a cardboard cut-out that runs through several poses like clunky stop-motion animation, with an unmoving mouth and permanent smile, occasional glower, occasional teary eyes, with a voice-box on the back that spits out lines.

If you compare people's attitudes from even five years ago, in the main they are much more vanilla and uptight. It's been interesting, if somewhat disheartening, to watch, especially all the policing in fandom circles.

He was a con man, wasn't he? Being somewhat less-than-genuine would seem normal.

He was, yes. Amongst other things.

Jack was actually a really interesting character who was often given short shrift by both the fans and the show.

Dude. Every time I turn around, someone is talking about how morally wrong a TV show is. Yes, I do feel like I'm living in Salem.
