The show. Not the character

https://screenrant.com/frasier-subverted-lgbtq-sitcom-tropes-jokes-progressive-how/

It was understated, and another way to say it better might be “gay comedy for straight people”, but a fairly large number of the writers and characters were openly lgbtq.

Maybe the show just wasn’t dicks to lgbtq, but it was the 90’s and that’s remarkable enough. It’s been a while, maybe I should watch it again.
