Chris,
That reminds me of an article I once read (sorry, no idea where to find it). The author said that SATC WAS originally intended to be a story about a bunch of gay guys.
For whatever reason, they thought they would have less problems telling homosexual stories if the characters weren’t actually gay. (Not sure I quite understand this myself). So the show ended up being a story about male homosexuality substituting female characters behaving like gay men.
At least this was supposedly how it started out. I’m sure it probably developed a different tone once it became a hit.
Don’t know whether to believe it or not, but that’s the rumor. Interesting, I didn’t know the Simpsons had mentioned it.
