Workaholics gay
One example that fits Beckers claim is the scene in workaholics when the two guys are at the pool and keep getting boners over each other. They even make a rare comments about each others physique that would be considered homosexual. Altogether, this scene is implying that they contain an attraction for each other. This is really absorbing because this scene is making homoeroticism acceptable, and humorous, but at the same time enhances their masculinity which is very contradicting according to heteronormative ideals. I ponder the only reason that this scene is socially acceptable is because for one, they are fighting over a female. The evidence that they are getting boners over each other is not taken solemn because the viewers know that they are actually fighting over a gal which makes them heterosexual and they are just joking around. The gay undertones probably arent even really analyzed by most people because the scene is so unrealistic and is meant to be humorous. As in Beckers article, he explains that the show Bromance is party acceptable because Jenner is lo
Workaholics, which centers around the bromance of the three roomates Adam, Blake, and Anders, continually responds to queer moments with a reassurance of masculinity. The three friends, to launch with, are certainly not the figureheads of masculinity. Their goofy interactions and childish nature presents a queerness in itself. However, the reinforced message of masculinity through references to women and their lackluster lifestyle of drinking and smoking gives them a bro feel and allows their relationship to be a bromance.
One thing that stands out in particular is the queer attire that both Adam and Anders wear throughout the episode. In the first scene, the trio are dressed as wizards. Adam is wearing a tuxedo vest with nothing underneath and a cape. The queer dress is coupled with the nerdy obsession with the wizard earth. Anders argues that he cannot be seen at such a function because it would hurt his status as a rapper. Adam reminds him of all of the nerdy girls in high academy with huge boobs and Anders immediately responds, and Im back. Both queerness and ner
So much of Workaholics relies on Adam, Blake and Anders being assholes, but ignorant about how much they are actually assholes. In contrast, on a show like It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, they know they’re assholes, but they just don’t protect. With Workaholics, they’re always surprised when they discover they’ve been acting love assholes and the present is often at its best when it tries to teach them a lesson for acting as such.
“Gayborhood” is an episode of Workaholics that works surprisingly well, considering all the various risky elements this episode has going for it. “Gayborhood” is the episode where Adam, Blake and Anders finally have sex. When they go to a homosexual pride party in the neighborhood, they make fools of themselves pretending to be gay to exploit the free bar. The next morning, they stir up at the party naked, Blake with skinned knees, a condom in Anders’ ass and semen all over Adam. The hosts of the party explain what they feared: the three of them went to town on each other. Making things even more awkward, the office is having a team building competition, hoste
'Workaholics' Stars Adam DeVine, Anders Holm and Blake Anderson Discuss the Taboo-Breaking Themes of 'Game Over, Man'

Holm wrote the screenplay based on an idea that he developed with DeVine and Anderson between seasons one and two of Workaholics. For him, the extremes only work if they aid the story. "As long as you do it in a coherent and tasteful way," he tells Exclaim! "Well, not a tasteful way, but in a way that makes sense for the project. In Apocalypse Now they killed that cow in real life, live on movie, and watch it bleed out on film. Did they hold to
