#10 Will and Grace

One of my favorite TV shows, WILL & GRACE, a TV show about 2 gay men, one straight woman, and one sometimes bi-sexual woman. It is one of the best sit-coms I have ever seen and it deals with homosexuality and bi-sexuality very well, in the terms of making fun of gay stereotypes and showing a little more about them. Adding two gay characters to this show makes the show hilarious, interesting, and never boring. Jack and Will, the two male gay characters of the show portray two different types of gay men. Jack, the more flamboyant one, is used as the sterotypical gay man. He is very feminine in his speech, loves Cher, is very high-maintenance,loves to create drama and loves fashion. In my opinion, Jack makes the show with his actions and with his self-involved pursuits. Will, on the other hand, is the more level-headed, down to earth homosexual man of the show. He is responsible, successful and doesn't normally portray the stereotypical gay man. Will shows audiences and media that not all gay men are like Jack, flamboyant, feminine, high-strung, and love fashion. This show is great in the terms of dealing with homosexuality because it shows two types or sides of homosexuality showing the audience that you dont have to be so flamboyant to be gay and that the gay stereotype only refers to SOME gay men, not all, and that you shouldnt categorize gay men in that stereotype. The media should not be so harsh on gay men as they are now, but I think the show, WILL & GRACE, handles it very well and creates a sense of humor for all types of audiences.
