That reminds me of TV's "Modern Family."  Of the gay couple, Cam (Eric Stonestreet) and Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson), Stonestreet is actually NOT gay, but he does a great job of acting, at times, even more convincing than Ferguson.  Almost my favorite show next to Big Bang Theory which, BTW, the Sheldon character (Jim Parsons) is gay in real life but has to play a straight guy with a girlfriend in the show.
