We don;t dicuss other shows here that much, but yes, the difference is Once is "a family" show to those particular people and I think that it's telling that they overlook murder, adultery, rape, and abuse yet LGBT shows up they are up in arms. Just stupidity because most of them forget those other portions. I hate that "family show" is an excuse. I consider Modern Family to be a family show and the fact that it has a gay couple doesn't make it less a family show.

This is the first time I ran into so much homophobic comments in a fandom. When other shows I have watched did gay relationship such as Buffy or Grey's Anatomy, the fandom was generally fine with it.
