'SAME STREET' FEATUR 2 GAY FATHERS FOR 1ST TIME 51-YEAR HISTORY
This Father’s Day, let’s take a moment to appreciate Mch and Cam, the gay dads of the s Morn Fay, played by Jse Tyler Fergon and Eric Stontreet. But the gay dads almost didn’t make to air. A gay lleague even enuraged them to turn Mch and Cam to mor background characters to avoid srg away viewers.
It wasn’t an unreasonable ncern at the time: Though gay characters had grown more proment on televisn the early 2000s, upl were ls mon and tend to only appear on ble shows. It was clear that many Amerins were still eply unfortable wh the ia of treatg gay upl as equals. Not only that, but viewers were particularly taken by the gay uple.
That was thanks to a clever strategy: In orr to ease nservative viewers to watchg, the wrers liberately foced early storyl on Mch and Cam’s parentg, rather than on any gay issu. Plots tend to be about takg their dghter to dayre and a pediatrician, or buyg diapers—thgs that would be relatable to gay or straight dienc. The issue of physil affectn beme a particular stickg pot among gay viewers.
