When shows start to slump this is usually what they do.What actors/actresses had to kiss someone of the same sex for ratings.Here are some examples:

Carrol O'Conner and Sammy Davis Jr. (All in The Family)
Jennifer Aniston and Winnona Ryder (Friends)
Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow (Friends)
Heather Locklear and Denise Richards (Spin City)
Evan Rachel Wood and Mischa Barton (Once and Again)
David Scwimmer and Matt Leblanc (Friends)
Charlie Sheen and Alan Ruck (Spin City)

Are there any more?

I don't think so. Roseanne was doing quite well in the ratings when they did that episode. They weren't desperate for ratings. But that All in the family sitcomwriter, I don't beleive they actually kissed. Just on the cheek no big deal.

I do hope that they show more same-sex relationships on TV in the future. Gay people deserve the same rights and respect that straight people have.

An obvious one is

Sean Hayes and Eric McCormack(Will and Grace)
Debra Messing and Megan Mulally(Will and Grace)
