Did Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker just come out on the Muppets Christmas special?

Cute way of looking at it, but I think you're reaching.  I adore the Muppets (yes, I own the box sets of The Muppet Show), and we've had gay Muppets before on Logo with Alien Boot Camp - which was hysterical, but Beaker, at least prefers the chicks - look what he wished for when he was wearing the Wish Helmet, a beautiful/slightly trashy female, and more important to him that Dr. Honeydew, since he wished himself away with the girl.

I know you meant this in all light-hearted fun, joking about the dance at the end of the special, and maybe my sense of humore went out the door with my job this week, but reaching to have these characters to be gay, is to me, in my current mood, just one of those reasons the wack jobs on the right wing are freaking out over teletubies - something innocent gets blown out of proportion in a joke - we're trying to convert the children.  It's like trying to accuse the guest stars on the The Muppet Show of bestiality because they flirted with a (puppet) frog. 

End of non-sense-of-humor rant.  But bonus points for the "the love that dare not meep its name" line.  I choked on my eggnog.
