This week: My Two Dads debuted the same week as Full House. It was funnier, smarter and talked frankly about sex — *and* it acknowledged that gay people exist, which Full House never did. It's the superior of the two. www.gayestepisodeever.com/episodes/my-...

Surely Gilligan's Island never did a gay episode, right? Well, there's a lot of queer intrigue in this season two body swap episodes, which sees the Skipper inhabit Mrs. Howell's body and vice-versa. www.gayestepisodeever.com/episodes/gil...

And we're back! This week, we're discussing an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm in which Larry courageously declares that his new girlfriend's Project Runway-loving son sure seems gay. www.gayestepisodeever.com/episodes/cur...

We kicked off 2025 with a new Sailor Moon episode that's all about Fisheye, who's about as much supervillainess as he his supervillain. He's also one of the most interesting characters in the whole series. Listen: www.gayestepisodeever.com/episodes/fis...

So @gayestepisodeever.bsky.social is going to do a fourth Sailor Moon ep. If we’re doing the Sailor Starlight season, which episode makes the most sense for us to pick for a discussion of their gender?

Hey, I'm the guest on the podcast "Gayest Episode Ever," discussing the 2003-2004 ABC sitcom IT'S ALL RELATIVE.

This is clearly whatever the Bluesky version of a subtweet is

Finally got around to reading Hi Honey I’m Homo by @mattbaume.bsky.social and it’s a great book about sitcoms, queer characters and how they helped change attitudes in the US. It just reemphasises how important tv is as an art form and how minority characters can strike a chord with audiences.

Last night, there was a new Simpsons that you should watch, because it's good and also because it's co-written by avowed gay @jlazebnik.bsky.social, but also it included a memorial to Billy Wright, who was another gay writer for the show. He passed away on Dec. 16...

We're celebrating @gayestepisodeever.bsky.social's 250th episode by returning to the first ep we ever covered: Frasier's "Matchmaker," which forced the show to say explicitly that no, Frasier is not gay. With returning guest @meakoopa.bsky.social! www.gayestepisodeever.com/episodes/fra...

Our pledge for 2025 is to once again get @iwritewrongs.bsky.social's rendition of pro-gay ALF back on purchasable merch.
