Let's just say that he got his "Double Talk" pay in three-dollar bills.

Wow, part of me wants to take the guy to task, but then the other part of me remembers all of the Ryan Seacrest jokes we've made around here. :)

I was going to leave this thread alone because of it's shear idiocy (in my opinion) but I can't..... I've got to know: What difference does it make if he is or isn't?

This has me kind of curious (no pun intended)...
Other than Henry Polic (and panelists, such as CNR, Rip Taylor, and Paul Lynde), were there any other hosts or announcers that were gay in the business?

Okay, now think about this for a second.
Very likely, there were quite a few people in the business that were and/or are gay, and nobody ever knew. Or will know.
Because, really, it's none of our business, and if they don't want to be open about it, that's their choice.
I'm hoping (GOD I'm hoping, because I have no tolerance for stupidity tonight) that this gets across what a silly question this is.

That battle was lost as soon as the word "swishy" did not end the discussion.

Um, ya. I have stories that I only tell in person, not on line.

Homosexuals in show business? I'm as shocked as Captain Renault (see: Casablanca). Next you'll tell me there are gay cowboys.
Does it matter?

Here's a list of my "colleagues" from our favorite source, Wikipedia!

Sadly, Wilford Brimley is straight :( He can stir my oats any day...just don't put sugar in them 'cause I haven't gotten my shipment from Liberty Home Medical yet.

And a WHOOOOOOOOOOOOSH for Doug. Sorry.
EDIT: While I looked at the Wikipedia list, and must say I'm impressed that they put such a list together, I'd like to see some of these verified, because two in particular I believe were put there because they either played a gay role on TV or starred on a show with a centralized gay character. (Other than that, they did a decent job with it.)

When I've Got A Secret makes its return on GSN: The Network For Games, break out pen and paper, then begin making your list. If Henry II is a guest panelist, you've got your answer.
Interesting that someone mentioned "soap" in this thread.

According to the IMdb, he played the lead in an off-Broadway production of "The Boys in the Band," so he had no aversion to portraying an openly gay character on stage.
