All “entertainment” is basically propaganda these days, and the sad fact is, despite the fact we are probably the most media exposed nation in history... most people are wholly incapable of recognizing it.
Homosexuals are so grossly overrepresented on TV today vs their existence in the general population, that if blacks were overrepresented by such a margin, white actors would not be able to find work.
I challenge you, think about it... name me a TV show on the air today on the big three that isn’t a “reality dating” show that doesn’t have an openly gay character in it.... They are few and far between.. I gave it some though the other day and could come up with “Big Bang Theory” and “The Goldberg’s” I could not come up with another show that I have watched on the broadcast networks that didn’t have at least 1 gay character in them... even if it was just a background character whose only point is to have a sexual deviant in the show, and you even knowing their sexuality makes no sense.... because really they are just a random background character... but gotta toss them in there so you can reference it.
I am not saying there are no other shows without them, but I am very hard pressed to think of any.
"How I met your Mother" actor Neil Patrick Harris is homosexual, though he plays a rampant heterosexual male.
I saw a study several years ago that asserted that 85% of all television shows feature either "gay" characters of "gay" actors.
Sometimes "gay" is built fully into the script. I've read an article that quotes the very writers from "True Blood" which state unequivocally that "vampirism" in their show is a metaphor for homosexuality.
If you have ever watched the show, it doesn't take long to realize that their "vampires" are actually proxies for Homosexuals, and the writers of the show have clearly stated that this characterization of it is true.
I don’t know if NCIS has any openly gay character(s) on it. I quit watching it when they had Jamie Leigh(sp?) Curtis on it. I think they were also flirting with adding a homosexual character at the time. I have seen old episodes, but nothing since the JLC relationship with Gibbs year. I have watched a few episodes of the other NCIS shows. But they are not very good. So I don’t watch any tv shows. I read. And I look for things not to do on Pinterist. Like wrapping a cardboard box with fancy twine and gluing the twine on the box. Then painting the twine. And gluing fabric inside the cardboard box to make something that looks like a fancy basket. When it’s really a cardboard box. I’ll just buy the basket already made at the store, thank you. Haha.
