Unfortunately, I'm afraid that even the current "tolerance" for homosexuality on TV is nothing more than a, "Hey! Will and Grace is doing great! We've got to have some gay content, and quick, or we won't be trendy!" sort of thing.

There is no social consciousness involved, here. It *is* all about the $.
