'cause then there wouldn't be drama to interest the lowest common denominators? :mrgreen:
Barmymoo:
Why is it that straight couples getting married and having normal relationships is enough drama but gay couples have to have some kind of weird "is she really gay?" dynamic before it is acceptable on TV? Heather Peace is one of my favourite actresses but I was really disappointed by that episode.
LeeC:
I can't think of a drama TV show centered around a "normal" straight couple.
Barmymoo:
Oh sure there's always drama, but it's pretty rare that the drama is that one of the couple is secretly pining for a member of the same gender despite considering themselves straight. Even if the character is bisexual (it's a bit ambiguous; she has a daughter and says she did love the father at the time, but since then has only been interested in women), it is irritating that they've made it look like she just can't resist how sexy the male teacher is. Dammit, I wanted to see an on-screen gay couple getting married, that's all!
Is it cold in here?:
I'm currently binging on old Daria episodes.
