i am hoping that somewhere out there there is a die-hard NBC fan that can 
help me out. i am working on a presentation for a gender and media 
discussion group i have, about tv sitcoms and their treatment of 
homosexuality.

i need the episode of friends where chandler and joey take ross's baby 
out to pick up chicks and are mistaken for gay parent's by the girls they 
try to pick up.

and the frasier episode where he inadvertantly makes a date with a gay 
co-worker and must tell his date the truth.

and the episode of the single guy where jonathan befriends ross (from 
friennds) and both assume the other is gay, and tries to not hurt each 
others feelings.

my presentation is on homophobic homoeroticism, and how these new "hip" 
sitcoms make it okay for someone to be gay, but at the same time consider 
it an insult or an embarrassment to be mistaken for one.

i am hoping some die-hard "must see tv" fan out there has these episodes 
on tape, and that we would be able to arrange something where i could 
either borrow or copy those tapes. or if anyone knows of a place where i 
could get copies of these episodes please, please, please email me at

thanks a ka-zillion!
