What color was Ernie?

You can't just retcon everyone into gay.
 
Bert and Ernie were created between 1966-1969.

In 1965 The Odd Couple was a highly successful play and in 1968 a successful film.

They are obvious take-offs on Felix and Oscar, two straight roommates.

I think the only reasonable interpretation of all of this is that Matthau and Lemmon were gay together.

Sounds like we need a remake of the odd couple that isn't homophobic
 
i always thought ernie looked like the german deputy fuhrer rudolph hess lol. judge for yourself:

so with that being the case, i guess he's german and white lol.
 
it was a little odd they slept in the same room, even if in separate beds.
 
Lol, he should have talked like that on the old Batman show.

That or he should have started competing with Mr. T when he was hitting on Adrian at the statue unveiling.
 
Do you know how high the rent is in New York? A one bedroom place was probably all they could afford.
alright alright, still. if i had to bunk with burt or ernie i'd probably take the couch.
 
Who gives a fuck what color he was?

He was tough enough to deal with Bert’s daily bullshit and that’s all that matters.

 
Gay or straight, black or white it matters not when you are this brvtal.
