Larry Craig was only the latest. Republican Bob Allen, a conservative Florida legislator, was also caught in a men's room this summer. (Predicting Craig's denials, he claimed his alleged offer to a cop of $20 and oral sex was a "big misunderstanding.") In 2006, Ted Haggard, president of the National Association of Evangelicals, admitted "sexual immorality" after a male personal trainer said on Denver radio that he had sex with Haggard. And now an Indiana prosecutor is investigating whether Glenn Murphy Jr., 33, who recently resigned the chairmanship of the Young Republicans, began oral sex with a sleeping...

...Prisoner told serial stories before Hill Street, and The Fugitive hung a years-long chase on its otherwise self-contained episodes. But Steven Bochco's cop drama popularized serialized story arcs by proving that audiences would have the patience to stick with a story longer than 60 minutes. Hill Street demonstrated that a TV show could make a virtue of messiness with plots that didn't resolve neatly (or sometimes at all) and heroes who crossed ethical lines.

...motherf----r. (Laughs). Then, I'd say about a minute later, I hear somebody shouting 'Does somebody have it? Does somebody have it?' I thought that was some fan. So I immediately started shouting, "I got it. I got it. Get the bleep off me." But it was a cop who was saying all this. So as someone is picking me up, I'm nudging him off me, like, "Get off me, man." The cop says, "I got you, son. I got you." And I think, "Oh, good, a cop." I couldn't really stand up. I couldn't really...

...film then spends most of its time trying to cure Chuck of his animosity toward gays. He attends a gay ball dressed as Count Dracula and befriends a tough cop who's secretly gay. Finally he convinces his macho pals in the firehouse, who had turned on him and Larry, that gay ain't so bad. The "gay" firemen's presumed crimes against nature matter less than their membership in the anti-arson brotherhood; camaraderie is the straight version of gay pride...
