ABC is also home to Ugly Betty, which threw a transgender character (Rebecca Romijn's Alexis Mead) into the center of the plot without even a whisper of controversy. And while she began as a villainous character, everyone on that show except Betty has an agenda. Meanwhile, the "gay nephew" character's gayness was only part of the plot when it came to his relationship with his father (which, over a multi-episode story arc, eventually smoothed over). And the gay assistant? Okay, fine: he's a minstrel show a little bit.
