Here's a gif for "anonymous" that asked for it a few weeks ago. Captured by the stellar @sportstudfan from s4e20 - The Dispossessed. A rare bit of tenderness from Jess, seems like Slim brings it out in him.

Is Laramie as gay as it seems?
I'd pay good money to talk to the makers of Laramie (1959-1963). They wrote a show about two roommate cowboys who, completely on free will, legally adopt a child.
Tumblr media
I'm sure Mike was supposed to fill (Slim's brother) Andy's absence, but their dynamic with him is totally different from Andy. Wikipedia describes Mike as "an orphan allowed to live on the farm," but he's not just "allowed" to live there...They sign adoption papers. They're his PARENTS. They hire a nanny!

Also, according to IMDB, Laramie was the only western show of the time where the characters are seen doing actual chores and realistic upkeep of their farm.
Tumblr media
What were the writers/directors going for? Did they know how homosexually domestic it would come across?
Tumblr media
Did they cast specifically for actors with unique physical chemistry? Or was this just a stroke of luck?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Were they intending to spit in the face of the rampant toxic masculinity of their era? Feel free to share your thoughts. I could talk about this all day.
edit: it's on STARZ if you need a reference

s1:e24 - Street of Hate
Hey y'all, it's been a while! Life has gotten in the way of posting (of course) but I'm going to try to be more consistent, even if that means I just post once a week. Anyway, on to the episode!
This is a solid "pards" episode of Laramie, and has some really great scenes. A townsperson/old friend is paroled out to Slim after serving a manslaughter sentence. The victim's father is quite upset about this guy returning to town and tries to make all sorts of issues, which of course Slim and ultimately Jess get involved in. Charles Bronson plays parolee Frank Buckley; if you're into him, there's a good shirtless scene. I won't go too far into the plot synopsis because this is really one worth watching and I don't want to spoil it. However, I will definitely talk about these screenshots. :)
Early in the episode, Slim and Jess are playing cards in the saloon while waiting for Frank's stage to come in. It looks like Jess is playing solitaire with some input from Slim, which is ridiculously cute. I never paid much attention to this scene until one of my mutuals pointed it out (you know who you are, lol), and I see why it's one of their favorites.
Later on, Jess is breaking in a horse, which leads to a very strange scene of Andy sewing the torn seat of his pants while he's still wearing them. Andy accidentally pokes Jess with the needle, and both Jess' and Slim's reactions are priceless.
We also get a fantastic tandem fight scene that ends with washing up in a water trough after the boys have kicked some ass.
Finally, the episode closes with Slim and Jess sitting on their porch, tattered boots up on the railing...and touching, of course. ❤️💙

I. Laramie "lost" scene
Laramie 1.31 Men of Defiance
In a scene removed for unknown reasons from the STARZ collection, Jess Harper talks about the fate of the majority of the Harper family at the hands of the outlaw Banister when Jess was only 15.
A few scenes were removed from this episode, I'm assuming to create a more cohesive storyline that focused on Men of Defiance more than Laramie. I might post others if anyone is interested.

I've been watching through the colour seasons of Laramie, and it's been impossible not to notice the intentional colour choices for Jess and Slim's outfits. Jess is always in cool colours, mostly blue and black, and Slim wears warm reds and browns. This of course is probably meant to reflect their personalities and backstories (Slim as passionate and morally upright, Jess as wandering ex-gunfighter, etc.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
They are even colour coordinated when they've just rolled out of bed:

The one thing that they both wear that doesn't match their usual tones is their jackets, in which they each wear the other's colours (the pockets and collar of Slim's jacket are dark blue and Jess's are a reddish brown).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I just... think that's sweet :) It shows that they are connected. Each one completes the other. It's also worth noting that sometimes, like in the GIF below with his red and blue checked shirt, little Mike is wearing both of their colours, symbolizing his connection to both of them.
Tumblr media
Anyway, that's all :)

The Ballad of Jess Harper
I rode out of Texas, with a bounty on my head. My heart was filled with anger, and seven men lay dead.
The sheriff let me ride away; my crimes were not the worst. ‘Cus back there seven men lay dead, they drew their six guns first.
The going wasn’t easy, hard luck was my fate. My thoughts turned back to Texas, my home the Lone Star state.
Many tasks I learned to concur, the trail ahead was steep. I wrangled cattle, roped some steers, rode shotgun for my keep.
My travels taught me right from wrong, I know I’ve been a fool. So I’m heading back to Texas, to live by the golden rule.
I’ll put a star upon my vest, keep the law and order. And never will I roam again, beyond the Texas border.
I was traveling west, to another Texas town. Heard the people were friendly, I felt like settling down.
I arrive there one mornin’, and this is what I found. My reputation with a gun, had gotten all around.
There was a young lad who really wanted fame. He challenged me at sundown, just to make his name.
This is the part I hate to tell. Come sundown, from my shot, he fell.
I mounted my horse, another notch in my gun. It saddened my heart, another battle I’d won.
I’m traveling West again, maybe across the sea. Where there must be a bride, perhaps a town for me.
So I’m traveling West, my gun at my side. I pray there’s no gunfights, may God be my guide.
So I’m traveling West, toward the settin’ sun. And in my heart, I feel my life has begun. Traveling West.

I take things that have been autographed with a grain of salt. Very rarely do I buy autographed items because.. well. It can be risky.
But it's also not everyday you run across an Emergency! script signed by Robert Fuller. Especially one with proof that he actually signed it.
So anyway, I'm $108 poorer but now I have a script from my favourite tv show signed by my favourite actor. I see it as an absolute win.
When I tell you I'm going to read this thing from front to back I'm afraid I'm not kidding. I'm thoroughly enjoying reading this while Adam-12 plays in the background
