Mr. Belvedere Discourages a Teen from Being Gay

"The Competition" (February 13, 1987) Yes, we did do an episode last year in which we summed up Mr. Belvedere are a whole and said it never did an outright gay episode. We were wrong, and thanks to two different listers who politely exposed our ignorance, this week you are getting Drew and Glen talking about the one where Heather convinces her boyfriend he's gay and Mr. Belvedere convinces him he's not. It's a weird bit of TV, but it's also one of the very few family-focused sitcoms of this era to actually acknowledge that gay people exist. Also you can listen to the previous Mr. Belvedere outing, but also maybe don't because this one is good enough to just replace the original? Christopher Hewett stars as King Koopa in Super Mario Bros. on Ice. Watch GEE TV to see the episode of 227 with Pee-Wee Herman. Enjoy the opening credits to Land of the Giants.

This episode's outro theme is "Balla Balla Ballerina" by Tony Manero, which isn't on any of the music streaming services or digital music stores, as near as Drew can find, so just listen to it on YouTube, I guess?
