Trivia
Creator
Tony Vitale first pitched the show as a vehicle for
Harvey Fierstein and
Andrew Dice Clay in the early '90s, but he was shot down by executives who claimed a show with a gay lead wouldn't fly. The next thing he knew, Fierstein was on
The Arsenio Hall Show talking about the project. In order to retain the rights, Vitale quickly turned it into a stage play, and the film version,
Kiss Me, Guido, followed a few years later. Still he couldn't get a network to touch the material as a weekly show. After
Will & Grace became a hit, Vitale again pitched the story and finally got a greenlight for the series.

Warren, I'm sitting here reading "Peanuts" and it just occurred to me, do you think Shroeder could be gay?
Warren:
What?
Vern:
Well, think about it, you know. Everyone's outside playing baseball. He's inside playing the piano. Lucy's throwing herself at him like a tart. He could care less. And if I'm not mistaken, he colors his hair. . .
