You forgot Noddy and Big EarsCrankyfeet said:Do you think that might have been because there were a lot more homosexual writers back then who were "in the closet" and writing homoerotic suggestive stuff was maybe their way of expressing themselves?
Other weird homoerotic symbols in retrospect, that were on TV in the 60's/70's..
Bert and Ernie from Sesame Street
Gilligan and the Skipper
Cisco and Poncho from The Cisco Kid
Batman and Robin
