homoerotocism

not sure. you probably wont believe me, but there is an out-take from season 3 where paul gross bends over callum k rennie and pretends to bum him. i saw it on youTUBE. it is a bloopers reel about 10-13 minutes long. if you happen to find it can you post the link so i can watch it again.

i thought byt the last season there was a touch of homoerotism which fraser never followed because he was troo nieve and new ray was too scared of losing someone who agatually got him like fraser

Thunderbirds Aren't Slow

There was so much homo-eroticism they were practically having sex in each episode. Paul Gross was actually credited with saying that he was going to add homo-eroticism into the show even more because he found Callum K Rennie so attractive!! He's okay but he has nothing on David Marciano!! I honestly didn't think the series could get any more homo-erotic than the first 2 series-I WAS WRONG!! The "buddy breathing scene was excellent" paul gross is an amazing actor and so GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you know, I get the whole vibe of this going on, but then I watched the 2 Victoria's secret episodes, and they were incredibly hot between Benton & Victoria. It seems like he has a ton of pent up stuff in there, and keeps it under such tight control that the only safe relationship he can really have is with Ray. God it was sad to watch.

There's an interview from Elm Street (reposted here: http://www.geocities.com/CollegePark/Lab/7658/tvfilm/art/elmstreet-pg. html) in which he talks about this, in response to the reporter showing him some Due South slash zines. He seemed amused but compelled, and apparently did read some stories on his own.

So, yeah, I think some of it must have been intentional!

this to me a bit distasteful – I don’t know about later episodes, if some jokes were thrown in – and getting away here from judging ‘homoeroticism’ per se – if Paul Gross admittedly a good-looking guy, why should it elicit this response – in same way, if an actress a beautiful woman do people automatically jump to a connection with lesbianism (in some cases that happens – but not necessarily so) And me being a Canadian, goes further, let’s "respect the uniform", in this portrayal at least Fraser is the epitome of traditional respectability, and being a member of a dignified group. compare with the riff-raff in the bar scene for example. and even in his ‘straight’ persona – there’s a nice co-worker (probably ‘Leann Brighton’), but somehow a romantic interlude with her, lovemaking scene whatever, in the film I’d say would be out-of-place. a chivalrous type – and like asked in another post, when ‘Francesca’ shows up in sexy outfit, later episode, does anything happen? (the consensus, no). the Mountie role here meant to be a bit distant, a near-sacred vocation, like a man-of-the-cloth. some things were maybe done later in humorous vein, dunno, but here very straight-laced, somehow inappropriate to view him as anything but.
