Alan Sues

Alan Sues (born March 7, 1926) is an American actor and comedian, arguably best known for his role as a regular performer on the comedy series Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In from 1968 until 1972. On that program Sues played a number of characters, including a children's show host named "Uncle Al the Kiddies' Pal."

Sues was one of only a very few primetime television personalities of the late 1960s and early 1970s who was known for exhibiting stereotypically gay-male behavior. On Laugh-In, while never explicitly saying he was gay, he employed exaggerated gestures and was known for acting in an intentionally "over the top" way, as a stereotype of a homosexual man (or at least as most mainstream audiences of the era imagined gay men to be).

Since Laugh-In, Sues has starred in only a few made-for-television movies and theaterical films, such as Oh, Heavenly Dog! in 1980.
