Norman Lear was a giant of television -- among the first to demanded that TV reflect the reality of queer lives. His shows included people who'd long been left out. I covered some of his groundbreaking episodes here: youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Have you ever covered Will & Grace ... And the reboot which upset many viewers at how they turned Jack's son Elliot (with two gay parents) into a horrible homophobic parent who sends his own gay son to conversion therapy? It seemed like they wanted to address conversion therapy...poor Skip!❤️

I was just texting a friend that in a better universe I'd be able to take the day off work to celebrate Norman Lear and watch his best stuff - glad to have this as a back up

I JUST watched that video yesterday and as it was ending, looked him up only to find out he'd died two days before. He had such a huge impact on television.
