CATHERE O'HARA ON 'MOIRA QUARANTE' & SCHT'S CREEK'S GAY LOVE

And the meantime, you n watch 5 seasons of Scht's Creek on Netflix RN before the sixth and fal season drops later this totally normalis LGBTQ+ relatnships a way that has never been seen before on TV…After beg romantilly lked to his female iend and hotel receptnist, Stevie Budd, season one, David, who intifi as a pansexual, falls for the new man town, Patrick, who intifi as a gay man. In many shows that have preced Scht’s Creek, this relatnship would have been exclively seen as a ‘gay relatnship’ and st to the si of the show’s ma narrative.

)Followg the boozy, pill-poppg, high-heeled footsteps of Christe Baranski's Maryann Thorpe, Wendie Malick's Na Van Horn, and Megan Mullally's Karen Walker, O'Hara's Moira Rose is the kd of shshow wh a passg acquatance wh realy, whose charmg elegance beli her heart of gold—the kd of shshow gay men have always had an affy Margo Channg sloppy and heartbroken at a piano after tramplg all over the guts at her own party.

Scht’s Creek has such a big fanbase here the UK and Moira has bee a massive fan-favoure, pecially wh gay men. When Dan Levy nceived of Scht's Creek, he created a place ee of bigotry and homophobia.

" "To see my son be so loved by this betiful person, even that moment, I swear wasn't about 'Oh, my gay son is beg loved by his gay boyiend. It creat a kd of homophobia-ee, revisnist realy that hopeful queers have been livg for a while. If they pair a queer character wh someone of the oppose sex, they fear accatns of gay erasure.

It’s important to regnize Dan Levy’s ntributn to LGBTQ reprentatn his wrg and performance of David, but as a Gen X gay viewer my favoure character is obvly Moira Rose. “Gay men have tradnally liked our divas eher as talented tragic creatur, or the fabulo ballsy women we aspire to have the urage of. “Watchg Scht’s Creek as an adult…the show echo the sentiment that I learned while growg up as a gay kid om Toronto: There is no ‘right’ way of dog thgs.
