One episode of Good Luck Charlie featured lesbian couples...

These are the couples in question from
an episode of Good Luck Charlie

The second-to-last episode of Disney Channel's family comedy series, Good Luck Charlie, throw a curve to the viewers when in the episode titled "Down a Tree", the characters named Susan and Cheryl were introduced and suddenly...Bob Duncan (played by Eric Allan Kramer) said to wife Amy Duncan (Leigh Allyn Baker) "Taylor has two moms!" and she replied "Wow! Nothing gets past you, Bob."

The scene in question generated numerous reactions from the social media, mostly were appreciated about showing gay couples in a kid-friendly channel. A spokesperson from Disney Channel said that it was developed under the consultancy of child development experts and community advisors and like most Disney shows, it was developed to be relevant to families globally, reflecting themes of diversity and inclusiveness.

Quite the first time this thing happened in Disney Channel history though... I wonder how does families react to this episode?
