As 'The Righteous Gemstones' Winds Down, Remembering 'The God Squad'

He is challenged by Thorsten, a Viking-like muscleman who successfully bears the cross and takes control of the God Squad from Kelvin and Keefe. Kelvin wrestles control back by successfully bearing the cross, and dissolves the Squad in the process. The subtext to these shenanigans is very queer, as is Kelvin's long-standing relationship with Keefe, which finally went public at the end of Season Three when Keefe helps rescue the kidnapped Kelvin. When the liberated Gemstone children stand before the congregation, Kelvin kisses Keefe in front of his siblings and the congregation.

Whether there is any repercussions for this expression of same sex affection will likely be addressed in the upcoming season, which premieres sometime in March on HBO; but there hasn't been a sweeter queer romance on television than that of Kelvin and Keefe – its closest equivalent was that of David Rose (Dan Levy) and Patrick Brewer (Noah Reid) on "Schitt's Creek." Will Kelvin and Keefe get married on Season Four? Let's hope.
