I haven't watched many recent sitcoms, I think the last one I wanted regularly was How I Met Your Mother which had zero gay lead characters (even though the biggest womanizer on the show was played by and actor who is gay in real life). There are some gay focused shows (Grace & Frankie, Will and Grace), but looking at the top 5 current sitcoms [1] 1. Big Bang Theory - none of the main characters are gay 2. Modern Family - out of 11 main characters, 2 are gay 3. Brooklyn Nine Nine - out of 10 main characters, 1 is gay 4. The Simpsons - I don't know how to count main characters, but I don't think any are gay 5. Always Sunny in Philadelphia - Out of 5 main characters, one is (or might be?) gay. (I used Wikipedia for most of these, so I may not have gotten the counts completely accurate) This doesn't seem to be a gross over representation of homosexuality - I wonder if you're suffering from observation bias, or if maybe you're just watching sitcoms that have more gay characters for whatever reason.
