I dont remember
Which is probably a positive thing since I apparently felt it was nbd

That Deep Space Nine episode with the lesbian kiss, because it was so marketed as the first ever lesbian kiss on broadcast TV.

The Ambiguously Gay Duo

A pair of cousins on Sailor Moon.

The infamous lesbian kiss in Star Trek DS9.

George Costanza and Jerry Seinfeld

Probably Threes Company. Actually, Jack wasn't gay but he pretended too be so the landlord would let him live with those banging hot girls. And him being gay was seen as no big deal.

Does that count? That was back in the 70s too.

melrose place

maybe Buffy or Dawson's Creek.

it might have happened before, but those are the ones that stick out to me.

Will and Grace

Bubblegum and Marcelene on Adventure Time... if I haven't horribly misremembered? It's been a while since I saw that show

Will and Grace is the first I can think of but I don't know if they were a couple or not. If not then Modern Family

Sailormoon, probably

The episode of That 70s show where the gay couple moves in next door and Red has a huge problem with it until he talks with them for 5 seconds.

And then he kicks them out of the house for not liking the Green Bay Packers. Because they're from Minnesota, they were born this way!

There was this one show, can't remember the name, about a guy and girl getting together, where the guy's parents were homophobic and the girl's parents were two gay dudes.

Hard to say honestly. I feel like Ive seen a lot of shipping stuff, too much that it kinda distracted from something that was real.

This

Wally and gus on mission hill I think. I can't think of anything I'd have seen before that. Nothing that stuck, anyway.

I feel like I've probably seen something before this, but since I can't think of it, probably Susan and Carol from Friends.

My first memory of gay on tv was My So-Called Life, but it wasn't a couple.

The Dukes of Hazzard

Kunzite and Zoisite in Sailor Moon

The first I saw in full was Rent movie I think. I know its the first time I saw a trans character at least. Otherwise will and Grace got a lot of advertisement but I never saw an episode.

It must have been on Undressed back in the day on MTV.

Bert and Ernie

The Hunger I guess? With Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon, if you could even call them a couple.

The Birdcage

I may be remembering this wrong but wasnt Mr. Simmons in Hey Arnold in a gay relationship that wasnt explicitly stated

I really cant remember

I didn't watch Ellen, but I know it was a big thing when she came out during an episode.

Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd from that one Bond movie

It wasn't explicit until the jungle movie I think. Not exactly subtle though.

Southpark

Mr garrison and that guy that wore the leather clothing

Will & Grace.
