originally, is it that every gay man is pigeon holed as a flaming, fem-me, tactile hair dresser that has the poster mad?   See 7 other replies

Exactly. Who in the show said the hairstylist was gay? For all we know, he is completely straight, albeit very flamboyant.   See 7 other replies

I also agree. TV has been behind the times in the last 5 or 10 years. Not sure why. There is plenty of hilarious comedy to be wrote using actual true personas of today's gay and straight population, as well as black, and other ethnic people, not to mention men & women. But I don't think Hollywood or TV has picked up on the fact that their brand of stereotyping is very old. It's like they think all gay people act like Uncle Arthur from 1960's Bewitched episodes. LOL And that all Black Women are FAT & SASSY! LOL But what can ya do? That's Television. I think sooner or later they will realize it's 2012+ and that people want fresh, today, and now sort of stuff. Like I said I think there is a whole brand new world of hilarious comedy based on non-stereotypes of real people of today. But TV and Hollywood seem to have glued the premise to "All in the family" to their forehead so that's the way things are for now. Even though the shows and movies are set with "today's" background they still use Clownish Flaming Emotional men as gays and Big Fat Sassy black women to portray African Americans, either that or skinny slutty types. Sorry to go on and on. But anyway sometimes these stereotypes are funny but I think sooner or later TV and Hollywood will realize they need something FRESH & NOW. They can update the backgrounds all they want but the premises are rather old school. Take Modern Family for example, they seem modern but they are anything but modern.   See 7 other replies
