John Waters Meets the Simpsons on "Homer's Phobia"

The 1997 episode of The Simpsons entitled "Homer's Phobia" doesn’t just mark a turning point for queer characters on television -- it’s a turning point for homophobia on television as well. With an unlikely appearance by cult filmmaker John Waters, the episode features a groundbreaking depiction of intolerance, a crash course in camp, and a smarter conversation about queer Americans than on any other show at the time -- all in a medium that was still thought of as only being for kids.
