Kurt Hummel on “Glee” might possibly be our favorite gay TV character of all time. Maybe we’re biased because we’re such huge fans of the show, but we thought that Kurt’s coming-out episode was a truly poignant TV moment. Kurt had joined the William McKinley High School football team so that his dad (played by Mike O’Malley) would think he was tough — but then he persuaded the whole team to perform Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” during a game. After their underdog win, Kurt admitted he’s gay to his dad, who replied, “I’ve known since you were three.” In what is becoming a signature of the series, the tender scene between the two characters served to provide believable emotions amid the over-the-top musical productions.
