A number of episodes addressed queer points, together with a two-episode arc the place Blanche’s (Rue McClanahan) brother got here out and — in an particularly progressive second — married his companion. “I feel [we did the episodes] as a result of we knew… we had a homosexual viewers,” Vallely mentioned. “They might play [the show] in [gay] bars throughout the nation.”
