"The Puppy Episode", or "Your Mother's a Fish", is the two-part season six finale of the American TV sitcom "Ellen". It originally aired on ABC on April 30, 1997. The episode featured Ellen DeGeneres' character, Ellen Morgan, coming out as gay.
The episode included appearances by guest stars Oprah Winfrey and Laura Dern, who portrayed her love interest. At the time, it was considered a groundbreaking moment in television history for featuring an openly gay lead character. However, the episode also generated controversy and backlash from some groups who objected to its content.
Ellen DeGeneres herself came out publicly as gay shortly after the episode aired, further sparking discussion and debate. In retrospect, "The Puppy Episode" is generally considered to have had a significant impact on LGBT representation in popular culture, and on the acceptance of same-sex relationships in society as a whole.
