yet another series that had it's writers feel the need to shoehorn gays in it... Well i'm a special snowflake too because i'm a spinosauruskin and i feel heavily underrepresented and will spread the word to some outrage crowd about how intolerant and not inclusive fear the walking dead has become..................

Every character in the show is written in for a purpose and a point. Who cares if he is gay? it doesn't take away from the plot, in fact it adds to it. It makes his character make more sense in a way.

There are shows that are like HEY LOOK RANDOM GAaAAaaaAAaAY PEOPLE and it is super annoying, but this isn't one of those shows.

Agreed. Was surprised with Dougray Scott though, liked him Hemlock Grove, looking forward to seeing how his character develops.

Usually i don't care either, but it happens in EVERY show these days. You aren't adressing the point i made. I have no objection to the manner, i have objection to being bombarded with it everywhere i look, no matter the genre or target audience. Next time please adress the actual point i made. Also it wasn't required for him to be gay to make a sensible plot, his being gay is irrelevant. They could have been kindred spirits doing shady business based on mutual understanding without them having to be gay. Your point about that is BS.

It wasn't a strawman, I agreed with him because he's right and you're so off base it's not even funny anymore. I was waiting to see how long it would take before someone started whining about strand kissing him and like clockwork, it happened. We get it, you're a bigot. Move on.

How did I not address your point?

Strand getting him drunk and stalling his cards from his wallet then getting caught and forced to help with his business could have been a woman.. I guess, but it makes a lot more sense having it be a man. Especially considering women don't usually carry all of their shit with them and probably would have had most of it in the room safe unlike a man.

The relationship is important because that is the only reason strand is safe. If he was just a business partner then the sniper dude would have just been like oh well that sucks, oh well. But no, he knows his boss will probably kill everyone including him if stand isn't safe with them. That is because they are in love, and it wouldn't make any sense if they were just business partners.

my point was that this particular gay relation in yet another series is irrelevant. the point was that it's 100% in all of the new series wether it was appropriate in this one or not...

And I said it is annoying when it is shoehorned in randomly for absolutely no reason and extremely focused on. Like oh look a gay couple keys make their losing scene last for 8 minutes even though straight scenes last 16 seconds because we have to show we are inclusive! That's annoying, but that isn't the case for this show so why you brought it up makes no sense...
