The Simpsons (animation)/Ho Yay: Difference between revisions

* How can you mention ''Simpsons'' [[Ho Yay]] without mentioning Lenny and Carl?

** It's also been [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]].

'''Carl:''' See, comments like those is why people think we're gay. }}

*** See also:

'''Carl:''' Hey, did we ever get that money? }}

**** The writers enjoy hinting it such as when the pair were watching Homer and Marge kiss: "Carl remember when we used to kiss like that (beat) with our respective girlfriends?" and also when Homer is organising gay weddings but has run out of clients we get this Crowning Moment of Funny:

Marge: Don't you rush those two! That is something they need to work out themselves. }}

* For some other common ones, Homer has the occasional mancrush, including many men that have an interest in Marge.

** He once referred to Bart as his boyfriend and another time he hugs Comic Books Guy and says he will never let go.

* In "Hungry Hungry Homer", while Homer is convincing Sherri to go to a dance with Bart.

Homer: Well, duh! He's breathtaking. }}

* Also, in the episode "Lisa the Tree Hugger".

Homer: I'm sorry, I wasn't listening, I was lost in your eyes. }}

* In one episode Bart swaps lives with his rich look-alike and during dinner, Milhouse notices Barts' beautiful "half-siblings". He says they're beautiful, but then says just the girl, he didn't notice the beautiful boy. He says with a dreamy look on his face.

* On one occasion Homer commented on how attractive another man was and he has been kissed by another man on two separate occasions, and while clearly surprised didn't react negatively either.

* Yet another, in "The Haw-Hawed Couple": Bart becomes Nelson's "best friend", and it's played exactly like a relationship, with lines like "I've known him for ages, but we met at a party and hit it off right away" and jealousy over Bart 'flying kites' with another boy. Complete with a [[Brokeback Mountain]] homage at the end.

* Homer going into fanboy mode over Rainier Wolfcastle. "Oh I love your movies and your powersauce bars and your taught....rippling..." Rainier interrupts him before he can finish.
