7: Homer Simpson Is a Homophobe

”Homer's Phobia“ (February 16, 1997)

Hot stuff, coming through! At long last, Homer Simpson asks the difficult question, "Hey, what if Bart is a homo?" This episode has none other than John Waters on hand as the primary non-Smithers Springfield queer, and the result is one of the better gay outings of the entire '90s. Learned person Dr. Bryan Wuest is on hand to help Glen and Drew talk through camp, kitsch and all manner of gayness.

Also check out the Talking Simpsons take on “Homer’s Phobia,” on which Drew is the guest.
