Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: How I Met Your Mother

[quote name="Jerry Whorebach"]I used to think <i>How I Met Your Mother</i> was a good show. I thought, as gay as the writers and fans might try and make it, at least Doogie Howser would always be there to keep things honest with his unapolagetic masculinity and astronaut-strength thirst for tang. Then one day I read an article that said Doogie Howser was a closet homosexual, that basically his entire career since <i>Harold & Kumar</i> has been one long joke at the expense of straight guys like Macho Man Randy Savage and Macho Man You the Reader and especially Million-Dollar Macho Man Me. I can't tell you how betrayed I felt. It would be like if the guy who played Jack on <i>Will & Grace</i> suddenly came out to the world as straight. Overnight his mincing faggot routine would go from playfully self-effacing to a brutal sexual assault on all gay people everywhere. They might as well change the name from "Will & Grace" to "Amos & Andy" because that's how offensive it would be. Then they might as well change the name to "Gary Unmarried" because that's how much patience America would have for it.[/quote]
