I've only recently found Schitts Creek and have fallen in love with it. I really like the relationship between Patrick and David and think it might be my favourite representation of a gay couple on TV ever.

Who are your favourite couples on television and film?

Bill and Frank in The Last of Us TV show. I think that’s the first time I ever felt truly connected to a gay couple that weren’t just there for comedic effect.

They were absolutely the best. I was watching that episode with my dad the other week and he said something along the lines of how cute a couple they were.

It was a really lovely moment for me seeing such sweet representation and also hearing my dad say something positive. Growing up he'd switch the channel or make vomit noises if he saw a gay couple on TV so he's really progressed. Made sure to tell him I appreciate that he's done that and had a nice bonding moment!

Jack and Tom, who gave us our first gay kiss on national TV in Ireland: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=6fAE9HPA588

When was that aired? It looks nineties or maybe eighties?

Also I feel bad for not realising this but I didn't know Gaelic was spoken enough to have television shows made with it. Assuming they were speaking Gaelic and I've not just made a right fool of myself! I thought it was something people were trying to keep alive more than using as their main language.

It’s very early nineties if I remember right. The Irish language, which is called Gaeilge here, is a Gaelic language.

You’ haven’t said anything foolish at all. In fact, you’re right that people are trying to keep it alive. It’s just that many people speak it every day too as their primary language. Our TV station is at https://tg4.ie if you’re curious about what a modern broadcast looks like.

Thanks for the information! I'll check it out 😊

David and Kieth, Six Feet Under

[–] ShunkW@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

This one hit me really hard because I didn't come out till a few years ago. Hiding made me ruin a relationship that could have been really good for me back in 2015. Which of course led to more shame and guilt and hiding.

That show was so beautifully written and really showed the dynamic of that kind of relationship and how unfair it is to the out partner.

I haven't thought about those guys in years! I didn't complete 6 feet under, maybe it's time for a re watch 🤔

I also love Patrick and David from Schitt's Creek. One of the best romances, let alone gay romances, I've seen in television.

Yeah there's something so wholesome even though there are quite a few arguments between them. Oh and when Patrick sings Simply the Best it's just beautiful.

The bros from the movie free fall ❤

I've never heard of this movie! What's it about? Is it recent?

The gay dudes from Mission Hill.

"Well then why don't you leave and find someone who doesn't have a knife stuck in their head if it bothers you so much?!"

I've never heard of Mission Hill. What's it about? I'm assuming it's not all stabbing in the head.

It was a short-lived adult animation that was on Adult Swim in the early to mid 2000's. It was really ahead of it's time, and kinda sad why it isn't around anymore.

It's about a cartoonist who ends up having his younger brother live with him while he goes to college. It's not really serialized, it's episodic so there's no real overarching plot aside from character development. But it's funny as hell.

Since David and Patrick are taken and someone else already mentioned The Birdcage, I’m going to go with Isaac Higgentoot and Nigel from Ghosts.
