Grace's Father-in-Law Is Gay… And Also Dead

"Emmet's Secret" (December 6, 1995) and "Emmett, We Hardly Knew Ye" (December 20, 1995)

Even those of us who came of age in the 1990s might be surprised to find out how big a deal Grace Under Fire was in its day. The show was a huge hit, and even if it burned too bright and too quickly, it deserved its popularity because it was funnier and more heartfelt than a lot of longer-lived TV series. In this installment, we talk about two consecutive episodes that outed Grace's father-in-law and then killed him off. It's not boring.

Because it never hurts to point it out, the number for the National Suicide Prevention Hotline is 1 (800) 723-8255. There's also an online chat option.
