The Simpsons Meets Tennessee Williams

“A Streetcar Named Marge” (October 1, 1992)

Although it was not on our final season schedule, circumstances conspired to make us discuss The Simpsons one last time — and we’ve picked a classic-era episode that may not scream “gay” but it definitely mutters it under its breath. In addition to Jon Lovitz playing the abusive theater director Llewelyn Sinclair, this one also features a young gay man’s guide to culture.
