Talk:The Ambiguously Gay Duo

Untitled

I've always had one huge question about this series - how in the hell did it ever make it onto broadcast television? Even late at night I can't believe NBC would air it. However, it is one of the most hilarious cartoons ever created. Captain Jackson 02:46, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

The mayor was never a character in this show. It was the commissioner of police that was always calling Ace and Gary. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.53.172.85 (talk • contribs) .

Feature Film

There is talk that The Ambiguously Gay Duo might get made into a feature film adaption and released in 2008! If I could cast, I would have Will Ferrell as the villain Bighead, because he so can totally pull off the villain, and I would have two unknowns as Ace and Gary. Or, there could be a movie based on their high school/college years called Ambiguou Boys and show their rivalry with Bighead. If this was so, there should be someone closer to their age to pull it off. I would cast Kyle Sullivan, Larry on The War At Home, since he could play Bighead as the unpopular social outcast seeking attention and acceptance. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jonathan.Bruce (talk • contribs) .

A movie would be a big mistake, like most SNL movies. There's just one gag here and even though it's a good one, doing it over and over again for 90 minutes isn't a good idea. And a great big no to Will Ferrell being involved. He's just not funny.Ttenchantr (talk) 06:34, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

At least one missing episode in episode guide

I know there is at least one episode missing, namely the one where they go after Osama bin Laden (this was post-911). I remember them inserting their penis mobile into the entrance of a cave in Afghanistan and pulling Osama out with the tip, to the shocked looks of US soldiers and Al-Qaeda fighters... 134.114.231.38 20:35, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

That was an episode of the x-presidents: "January 12, 2002 (Josh Hartnett/Pink), The Ambiguously Gay Duo makes a surprise appearance in The X-Presidents – the Hunt for Osama." 68.13.147.241 04:05, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Their mentor's name is "Kijoro," not "Kor Al." Changing this. O0drogue0o 04:08, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Retroactive Point of View?

"The shorts were intended to satirize suggestions that early Batman comics implied a homosexual relationship between the title character and his sidekick Robin" I dont think it was implied at the time, I mean. Like back when the batman comics started, it *wasnt* implying anything. But to us, from our point of view, it seems really obvious. Im giong to clean up this wording, because while I may lack citations, i think its pretty clear how much fasion and ideas and wordings have changed since 1939. For instance, I'm pretty sure that the people who wrote that batman comic of the Joker and his Boners had absolutely no idea what that would come to mean. Also we have a planet called Uranus. Again, ancient greeks almost definetly had no idea that we would make an incredibly lame pun out of it.

As such, I also dont think it needs any citations because its one of those "the sky is blue" things. Feel free to disagree or somesuch on the nature of needed citations, or for my updated sentence (whatever it will be) to be in at all. 74.128.56.194 (talk) 06:12, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Well, it becomes a double irony in the context of modern media and especially the modern comics industry, when most female characters become bisexual, and more and more male characters are causing huge controversy due to high-hype gay or bisexual retcons. Not to mention the popularity of queer research and queer reading. Robin is already canonically bisexual, Batman is also speculated to be revealed as bisexual in the new series. This was definitely not in the plans at the time of this parody or the original book, but it's rather ironic that the situation with Batman has now been reversed. Just try to read this book as if it were describing modern DC lol. Even the original writers have get this and joke about "the open and proud unambiguously gay duo."
