I got one letter at the very beginning, like, in the first season, saying - from a woman who was very religious, very Christian, saying how wrong she thought the show was, but she thinks it`s the funniest show on television.
But when I did think about it and looked at the whole package - the producers behind the show, the writers, the cast I would be working with - I would have been a fool to turn it down just because the role for me was another gay role.
And I`d like to believe that`s true, you know, kind of showing gay people in this kind of light and - where it`s not about that, it`s just about the characters for the first time, like those shows were.
No one could have ever dreamed about how well the show would do.
