I can't be the only one that thinks a pro-marriage equality video shouldn't have a joke insulting a woman based on her looks?

You do realize the actor behind Dustin and Anne Doyle are long time friends?
Even the joke about LGBT = Lets (keep) Gay Byrne (off) Telly is an old old joke between Dustin and Gaybo himself.

Have met Anne Doyle on several occasions before, my sister knows her. Very funny person and more than able to take a joke. She'll have found this very funny.

You kind of are.
I'm amused by how you've posted this on at least two forums and both have given the majority view that it's an overreaction.

It's a video featuring two puppets with a positive message for the LGBT community.

Relax a little and take some solace in the fact that as a society, we seem to get some things right sometimes, and this is one of them.
