'Simpsons’ surprise: It’s Patty: Marge’s sister gay
By Sarah Rodman
Monday, February 21, 2005
It was a gay old time in Springfield last night.
In a ``Simpsons'' episode titled ``There's Something About Marrying,'' Patty Bouvier, one of Marge Simpson's chain-smoking, MacGyver-loving sisters, came out of the closet.
Mayor Quimby legalized gay marriage as a means to boost tourism in Springfield.
After Rev. Lovejoy turned away the influx of homoaffectionals seeking state sanction, Homer decided to get in on the matri-money by becoming an Internet minister. Patty then showed up at the Simpsons' door hoping that Homer could join her with her LPGA girlfriend Veronica.
The only one caught off guard by the news of Patty's Sapphic preferences was Marge herself. As Homer put it, ``Yeah, Marge, here's another surprise, I like beer.''
Sadly, Patty was thwarted in her desire to get married when Veronica was unmasked at the ceremony as a man.
Fans of the long-running show have been buzzing about who would be outed since creator Matt Groening announced the storyline last July. But the most likely individuals - including Burns lackey Waylon Smithers and close buddies Lenny and Carl - didn't even appear in the episode.
Instead, Groening and the show's writers put Marge's liberalism to the test by putting the action in her own family. After the shock wore off she accepted her sister's orientation.
While the episode didn't register high on the hilarity meter, the animated series must've scored some kind of milestone by featuring more same-sex kisses in 22 minutes than have been seen in prime time in the last 10 years, including one involving Homer and himself. Now that's Homerffectional. D'oh!
