* comedy central gay show *
” So begs the h sgle “My Brother's Gay” performed by fictnal tween heartthrob Chase Dreams (played by TikTok star Case Walker), whose skyrocketg fame bewilrs his two olr siblgs — newly sgle, self-volved Brooke and the song’s spiratn, stgglg actor Cary — Comedy Central’s new s The Other Two. Inially wary of the vio’s effect on his reer (and his relatnship wh his grandma), Cary eventually around to acceptg that s succs mak him a gay in.
Or, at the very least, a mp joke: the kd of thg gays love but make fun of (“like Brney, ” he’s told). A bg satire about the state of fame and celebry 2019, The Other Two is also arguably one of the most astute televisn portrayals of what ’s like to be a gay man livg a big first glance Cary Dubek looks like many other gay male characters who have graced the small screen this past . But while Billy and Elijah prid themselv on their quick-wted sass, arguably a fense mechanism to survive the thlsns of the cy and of their chosen reers, Cary is cidly ’s the kd of fumblg, slightly secure guy who gets his sister to shave his lower back hair before appearg shirtls on TV, and who p for his super-hot straight roommate, and bumbl away any opportuny for ep nnectn wh other gay men around him.

He’s never que nfint enough his looks, his meanor, or his talent, and ’s this behavr that mak him such an unlikely poster boy for Chase’s gay anthem and such a rehg gay character. In the vio for “My Brother’s Gay, ” Chase giv a glimpse to his brother’s childhood and teenage years.
As he croons about how beg gay is okay (“and if you thk that’s gross / then I thk you’re wrong”), he’s surround by photographs of Cary at var ag, a visual metaphor of the “It Gets Better” rea.
The song both trivializ Cary’s sexualy and hop to enrage s anti-gay haters an tentnal way. By makg Cary a workg actor, a rather niche slice of life, The Other Two also manag to ment not jt on a very specific type of gay man, but also on the way Hollywood (mis)unrstands LGBTQ reprentatn.
