Naah, shooting is still very much on the table. Arthriss being villain has nothing to do with it.

We need a new plague.
Imagine the last poor chap who said it.

@grimreaper neither can I. It's too much.

She's gonna be present at all of our accidental funerals. Betty White and The Queen will be the only beings left even after the universe turns to dust.

Ah, well that's how decent storylines play out. Also, I thought it was Him from Powerpuff Girls. I was terrified of Him as a kid, but I gotta say, now I love that character. Also, the most famous crossdresser in the history of kids cartoon! Powerpuff Girls was the shit!

Oh yeah, the gay bait is not at all cool and a lot of shows are gulity of that. And yeah, if they gave a shit about making stories rather then platitudes of politics then it would play out greatly with people, but they are big corporations who want money first. Luckily, there are still some creators out there who are good at what they do and things are kinda becoming "normal" regarding minorities in the showbiz, so that's a good sign I guess.

Also, who was your favourite character? Was it Him? Cause I am really curious now.

Plus, any LGBT person would rather have an organic representation than a walking stereotype. And while a lot of people agree that any representation is good one, you gotta understand that that happens only because we allow it. There is so little organic representation that people gobble up whatever is offered to them and from their opinion on the base of that.

But thankfully, things are looking good, but they aren't gonna get any better by yelling or launching hit pieces. Organic things take organic time.

But, if it is done right then it can be pretty tasteful. Look at how they handled Rosa's seexuality on B99. Stephanie Beatriz came out as bi and they wrote that into her character as well, but it was done in such a way and being true to the character that it didn't seem like something shoved down your throat.

Or Mac form It's Always Sunny, he was hinted to be a repressed gay guy for a long time and then with Season 6, the implication became rather strong, he officially came out in season 13 and then when he finally found his pride, it was beautiful.
.
Point is, no matter whether the character is gay from beginning of the plot or in the middle or in the end. If the character would only have his sexuality as his trait then no one will care for them. It has to be organic, it needs to be consistent with character and while it may have an effect on the character/plot, it shouldn't completely become them.

Oh well, it was joke. Boston people don't roll their r's at all. The have a peculiar accent, so they are familiar with basically all of these
