BARRY’S NOHO HANK: JT ANOTHER A SERI OF GAY TELEVISN MOBSTERS
Anthony Carrigan's character NoHo Hank was revealed to be gay the Season 3 premiere of "Barry" on HBO. I gus wasn't too much of a surprise when NoHo Hank, an unsavory character om the h HBO seri Barry, was revealed to be gay.

Har's Barry is a hired h man, so his teractns wh Hank are not only edic but vlent, or rooted nfirmed my spicns -- my gaydar went off wh him season 1 -- that he was gay when he was outed the season 3 opener. His sexualy is prented wh a touch of flamboyance and sills, jt like the other attribut of his mob boss beg gay got me thkg about other mob, rtel, or gang members on other h televisn shows who are gay too and how their sexualy is more matter-of-fact and not sensatnalized.
