I was watching the first season of Boston Legal a year or two ago, and Jim O'Heir (Jerry/Garry/Larry) was in an episode as a mall Santa who got fired for being a crossdresser. It's one of the most humanizing episodes of the first season, and it might be one of my favorite episodes period - I'm watching season 3 on a streaming app, and I'm starting to get pretty grossed out with how the show treats women.

It's a pretty sympathetic portrayal of a gay person for 2004, and it even goes out of its way to mention that a majority of crossdressers are actually straight. It's an excellent performance by Jim O'Heir.

That's quite a coincidence, I also rewatched Boston Legal for the first time 2 years ago, even got all 5 seasons, even watched the last season of the practice since that's when denny and alan shore first showed up. Good show.

I think the actual gross thing is how the show in later seasons started to have a weird... fetish with incest and old gross stuff, I can't remember what it was, I do remember making a topic complaining about it here.
