On Coach, Hayden ended up in a gay bar, but he didn't know it. He was sitting at the bar and two guys were slow dancing behind him.

On Becker, Linda books Dr. Becker on a gay cruise by mistake. We don't see him on the cruise, but he was hilarious when he returned. When asked when he figured out it was a gay cruise, he said, "Somewhere between YM and CA."

On the Golden Girls, one of Dorothy's old friends is a lesbian and falls for Rose and Rose is the last to know.

Two more Becker examples.

One of Becker's old college buddie's comes to see him, but he's had a sex change and is now a beautiful woman. Becker gets angry and writes him off...then reconsiders, and it ends happily.

Becker got shot outside a gay bar, and I guess he was taken inside for help. For the rest of the episode, the big thug-type cop kept insisting that Becker was gay, no matter how much he told him he wasn't.

Roseanne. I know this is your fave show Janice.

Roseanne went to LIPS w/Nancy and got kissed by Nancy's friend.

Jack Tripper from Three's Company. He wasn't gay, but he had to pretend many times for Mr. Roper and Mr. Furley.

Who can forget the infamous Roseanne lesbian kiss?

On Taxi, Elaine's boyfriend has a crush on Tony. Alex goes to a gay bar to tell the boyfriend that Tony is not interested and ends up dancing on top of the bar!

Remember that episode when Tony had that girlfriend who was "clinging" to him...he tried to think of ways to get rid of her, so he told her he was gay and that Louie was his lover.

Not actually a series by any chance, but maybe this will change our minds about Scott Baio at the switch of a bulb, I'll say....

That's right, lol. Was that the one with, "Not that there's anything wrong with it" said throughout the show?
