It was an excg day for gay upl who had been hopg to legally tie-the-knot (and an excg day for everyone who believ #loveislove), and we're celebratg wh a pri-filled celebry weddg roundup.
By the way, Ellen announced her plans to wed Portia durg a tapg of The Ellen Show, after California's Supreme Court reversed their ban on gay marriage. Lance and Michael ma history as the first gay uple to have their weddg televised on Amerin TV, and their special, Lance Lov Michael: The Lance Bass Weddg, is fely worth watchg. Comedian Wanda Syk and her wife, Alex, got hched 2008 (a month before Wanda me out as gay).
A GAY UPLE RAN A RAL RTRANT PEACE. THEN NEW NEIGHBORS ARRIVED.
The uple are pretty private about their relatnship, but Wanda did open up about her thoughts on the ristance toward gay marriage beg legalized. Wh That Gay Episo, I want to be able to look back at LGBTQ rep televisn and see a straight le of progrs om the villas of the ’50s to Ellen DeGener’ heroic g out 1997.
Characters the ’70s e out and ’s no big al, but guys the ’90s are terrified of beg mistaken for gay. In between there are exampl of hysteril gay panic and sual reprentatn.
After spendg a few stallments the years leadg up to Ellen’s game-changg (and show-endg) cisn, I wanted to vis the more open-md ’70s–the when The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Bob Newhart Show troduced gay characters wh a re that puts Friends to shame. That diversy extend past havg the Ain-Amerin Ron Glass, Japane-Amerin Jack Soo, and Puerto Rin Gregory Sierra the regular st; Barney Miller also featured recurrg gay characters that appeared all the way om the show’s send to s last episo.

Barney Miller didn’t have the gay-of-the-week problem that so many ss had. It’s trouble tim two, and they’re both drsed like gay crayons. “Disvery” don’t tiptoe around the gay stuff.
Marty and Darryl e to the precct (which Darryl lls “enemy terrory”) to report that a man is extortg gay men by posg as a police officer.
MARTY GAY
Gay men and police officers most likely had a straed relatnship 1975. Barney Miller had two gay recurrg characters? “Wojo” Wojciehowicz (Max Gail) beg aggrsively homophobic?

Him thkg that beg gay is may be a “psychologil phenomenon that’s ticked off by anythg”? Marty and Darryl are basilly s versns of my personal gay hero, Pl Lyn and Charl Nelson Reilly (okay, they’re a ltle more Liberace than Lyn, but still).
Consirg how vert or closeted gay characters were treated later the ’80s, ’s rehg to see a pair of ’70s queens dolled up a salmon rdigan and powr blue leisure su and owng . The problem is that, as far as I n tell, none of the actors or wrers volved were gay.
That’s not a al breaker, and Barney Miller -creator Danny Arnold worked closely wh the Gay Media Task Force (which sounds like the Saturday morng rtoon that I need). But there’s a subtle specificy when a gay episo is wrten by and stars gay men, like Mary Tyler Moore’s gay episo. I tst a gay wrer the ’70s to wre om an thentic, personal experience, and I tst a gay performer to imbue their gay character wh digny.
