When is somebody aka writers of television shows I like going to grow a set of balls?
Supernatural, Teen Wolf, Grimm, pick any of the supernatural shows (or any of the other offerings aside from comedy on television) do we see a gay couple at the forefront of a show. To me it reads like "oh, we can't offend the male watchers of these shows because they want masculine grunts and no girly stuff." A detective can't be macho if he's gay? A werewolf of course has to be straight apparently to be scary. An Angel (for freaking sake who supposedly has no gender in his/her true form) can't be attracted to someone he's laid his LIFE down for several times...and do you know who actually did gay couples that WERE POPULAR? For God's sakes soap operas (before they were shut down). All My Children had a lesbian character (Erica's daughter) and One Life to Live (before they went off) had a very popular gay pairing that fans adored. Of course *huffs* the brain trusts who write the "action" stories can't seem to climb that mountain. I'm afraid Cable (and the paying thereof) is about the only hope I have of ever seeing it happen.
