After the Ellen show came Will and Grace and more gay friendly shows. That really started the acceptance we see today - all can be traced back to the coming-out episode. Thanks Ellen. You did make that difference.

To divide people into fighting groups and make them feel like gays and lesbians are the main enemies and villains, so that people don't blame the authorities for the mess we have here.

Love how bob iger is on here. He’s the ceo of the Walt Disney Company. The company with the largest gay following, basically calling her and that show too gay. Meanwhile Disney (today)is working on a gay main character show. And they own abc which has a lot of other gay characters on shows. If you work for that company say like at the parks, you are still molded in that heterosexual image. And you are told not to embrace your self. You have to fit the Disney image, which is very heterosexual looking. While their brand ambassadors are very openly gay and walk into work looking like themselves. It’s just very confusing to me. All I know is God bless Ellen. He sent us an angel.

@TheCrusaders13

tom slick that's why its inspired not word for word written. it's not literally god writing; it's inspired by him. and in a way some areas are word for word considering some things have been found true or actually happened. also remember this (most don't) the actual writings were done on dead sea scrolls we have the translations of them. not the actual ones. so in reality yes it is god. we just get what the brits tried to translate. also to we have free will. god doesn't direct us like robots. we chose our own path in life. he just sees all our paths in all our lives. so many things are taken wrong. believe me i've experienced it more than once. man translated the original scrolls to what is now English. therefore flaws abound. many things aren't a failure really. otherwise the bible wouldn't have like 100 different tittles. history moral romantic war books etc. why would one book be able to be used in so many different areas?? not many can say that. besides think on this how would you like someone directing your life step for step. without your approval. i'd hate it. many ppl have also created their own bibles and say it's god. it's not. i've read a few. wow. scary. many things are also not actually in the bible. contrary to what many think. there are many things left out. the bible is the equivalent to a history holy book. it tells you what you need to know for your everyday life. some things aren't there so ppl make stuff up. the world is billions of years old and history is millions yet the bible only covers a small portion. no one said it covered everyday life of the time nor what went on or was legal. so some things aren't there. like i said the original scrolls are the actual words. those are in the vatican. good luck. we get the translations of said scrolls. the KJV is just the closest we got. most are varying translations which shouldn't even be classified as translations. most are the KJV either in the original form or how we talk today. which is different from 'ye olde england'. like i said being gay isn't even in the bible. actually many theologians and historians believed several of the people Jesus healed was actually gay at the time. why isn't in there?? it was illegal to be gay for centuries in varying parts of the world, or in this case europe. jesus pushed away no one and neither should we, or me i guess. Christianity is another one. jesus never formed a religion on earth. that wasn't done until after he died and ascended. read acts it explains it. funny huh? i'm a christian BUT i prefer to say spiritual because that's what jesus actually preached. a spiritual connection. the religion thing is man made. so flawed. except for being jewish. that's the only religion you can be born into. religion and a nationality. double-whammy

It sucks how they cancelled the show just because some people, and the ABC execs were mad and disgusted that she came out. But If it were today, ABC would've been more accepting as well as the rest of the world. I was 9 when it ended, and had no idea about it back then. I've seen reruns though. Poor Ellen . . . but 5 years after this interview her talk show began and look where she is today! I'm glad we've come a long way since 1998 but there's still a lot of homophobic bigots out there who can't get out of the 1950s and keep their mouths shut.

Never knew that not long ago people were so ignorant, I mean yes there is still a long way to go, but we have come a long way because now alot of people are very open minded, and even ABC has a show supporting gays, The Fosters. I'm happy that I was born into a good place, I was born 1998, and I'm religious but I was told being gay was wrong though never told to hate gays. I don't care if you're religious or not, God never said to hate people, or "sinners". And if you're not religious, not all religious people are ignorant. I support humans, you have to be really ignorant to not support humans. The transgender community is also just coming into light, I think we need to be educated alot more, but overall we're coming up :)

The ABC stance brings to mind the quote from Hamlet: "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in our philosophy. " As a child, I loved to capture lightening bugs, butterflies, flies etc in my large mason jar covered with a lid full of air holes. In captivity they beat themselves feverishly against the glass, not knowing it was a barrier. I think people who live in glass houses have a similar problem with what is real and what is not....

Married With Children lasted four years after Amanda Bearse came out as a lesbian and Will & Grace premiered for a long eight year consecutive run on rival network NBC the very same year of the Ellen cancellation. Then-ABC head Bob Iger is someone who Ellen needs to quit trusting, for the logical answer is that he cancelled her show without outside pressure.

No wonder why ABC begin to fall in the ratings with Iger getting rid of so many shows like Ellen, Spin City, My Wife and Kids, The Hughleys, The Practice and NYPD Blue. Although NYPD Blue ended on its own but still that show felt like it could have went on forever. It was that great. Also the end of Monday Night Football and ABC Sports also came under Iger. He ruined ABC putting on garbage like Desperate Housewives, The Bachelor and the Bachelorette. I mean damn. ABC isn't ABC anymore. It's a huge shell of itself. Although in the end Ellen has done very well for herself in the last 20 years and her success is a big fuck you to all the people who doubted her.

I disagree with the "need" for parental advisories, but have no issue with them cancelling the show. If they were really scared, they would have cancelled her as soon as she started losing sponsors. I applaud them for continuing the show. I used to love her show but I quit watching regularly that last season - not because it was a "gay" show but it just was not a funny show. I am a huge fan of her talk show and watch it all the time!

This makes me cringe... This whole era makes me so mad and I was even born in 1995. These comments by these "adults" are disgusting. If some homophobic prick said some of this stuff to my face, you'd better believe I'd punch them without any thought or hesitation. I'm pansexual so this makes me want to puke.

You have to realize even though you were technically born in that era, you weren't raised in it. Those people were raised in a time where heterosexuality was the norm and the majority of people had very different ideas of what homosexuality was because no one knew anything about it. Most of the people were raised to believe that people chose to be gay and wanted to just have sex with everyone. They were raised to believe that homosexuality was an immoral way of life. However, now most people know that being gay is not a choice and gay people are just as normal as straight people, so the majority don't have a problem with it anymore. You need to be able to see someone else point of view or else you're probably just as closed-minded.

BookieObsessed I was 19-20 when Ellen came out in 1997. 1995 I had just graduated high school, things were SO much different back then even in 1999 when I knew I was gay it was difficult to come out. I felt so bad for seeing her go through this on the last episode. Frankly I had no problem with it, because to me it seemed normal. If you are already LGBT you don't see a difference. The executives on ABC were atrocious at that time. Believe me the 1990's we're so much different than they are now.

Well, that Mr.President of NBC was a jerk (I hope he's got over the gay issue), but Ellen has proven her talent and power, and no matter what happened to her, she keeps showing the world that there's nothing wrong with being gay. She's hardworking, intelligent and competent and gays are no more different than straight, bi or transgender people. Thanks to people like Ellen, things have changed. You go, girl!

Lots of hate on about how bad ABC was to put on the warnings, not promote the show, and eventually to drop the show. Yeah, maybe in a perfect world they would not have done those things. But this was 1998 people. All those lovely letters were being matched by hate mail of the most disgusting sort. ABC is a COMPANY. They weren't a gay charity. They were scared of the bottom line. Their JOB is to watch the bottom line. Kudos to them for letting her go as far as she did with it. Enough? Maybe not but more than anyone had done before them. For moderate, conservative, corporate America they were cutting edge for their time.

Being gay isn't a sexual tendency. I'm bi and when I have certain for someone if its towards another guy I don't just tend to feel a certain energy. Its not a bad habit that comes and goes its a unchangeable and is always there. Why dont people consider being straight a tendency?

i just keep thinking about all the times I saw Paul Reiser being a couple with Helen Hunt in Mad About You and the guy goes "but it wasn't about being heterosexual" right it was just about being in a relationship. just like ellen wasn't trying to make it about being homosexual just about being in a relationship!

I do agree with some of abcs views though. Even though the show had been good it focused too little on other subjects. Its like the comedian Gabriel iglesias. He used to bust out half his show about his weight being classified as "fluffy" I loved his comedy but he even admitted on an interview his whole show was about being fluffy and thar he learner to broaden his themes of material. Its the same with Kevin hart. Even though hes hilarious he could be classified as a very black comedian because he focuses on comparing blacks and whites or how blacks do things when he could talk about other subjects too.

There is something about american society that I can't get: It seems totally normal and acceptable, even for children, to display violent scenes, but when it comes to nudity and sex (not to mention gay sex) it is where the line is drawn. Why is it appropiate for a child or teenager to watch shootings and beatings and violence and it is totally unacceptable the glimpse of a naked human body? don't get it.
