Michelle Tanner Meets a Yankee Doodle Dandy

"The Play's the Thing" (November 17, 1992) The big joke with Full House never did a gay episode despite being a show about three men cohabitating and coparenting in San Francisco. However, the fifth season introduced Derek (Blake McIver Ewing), a new friend for Michelle who's well-mannered, soft-spoken and really good at showtunes. We'd argue that Derek, while young, still comes off as a queer-coded character, and the fact the actor himself would later come out makes the performance all the more interesting.
