Oddly enough didn’t LOST have one of ‘the others’ be a bear? And no this isn’t a polar bear joke.

I recall at least two on Will & Grace. Which means there were probably more, as my main interest in that show was ogling Grace & Karen.

Trivia for straight people: There are subsets of bears.

Polar Bear is gay slang for a bear with white hair.  
Honey Bear: a blonde bear (by some definitions I fall into this one, but my very light body hair and lack of tone removes me from some other definitions- I have the blonde and big part)  
Panda Bear: an Asian bear (very rare and thus kind of a premium)  
Black Bear: a black ‘bear’
