Larry David really pays attention to detail; how else could he make millions off of creating two shows that over analyze social decorum? I think someone with his type of mind should create a gay version of Seinfeld/Curb Your Enthusiasm. I can think of a few "culprits" or predicaments that a gay Larry David-type would put under the microscope:
- A character who is a combination of KC and Shane: she enjoys converting straight girls to dykehood, but she doesn't want to commit to them.
- A character who claims to be straight but exhibits several gay stereotypes. Much like the person I discussed in this post.
- A character who pretends to be queer for some sort of social benefit. This could be a stretch, but it reminds me of the Seinfeld where Jerry is upset at Tim Watley (?) for converting to Judaism for the jokes.
- Women kissing and finding each other attractive is encouraged much more than it is with men. I'm not sure how to make this funny. Again, I'm no Larry David.
- Do you ever confront someone who is very obviously gay (I'm talking Richard Simmons gay here) but still claims to be straight?
