I like how the Carlos/Cecil thing started as kind of a gag but quickly turned into the real deal. Cecil is straight up into Carlos and no mistakes about it like the second time it's ever mentioned, and they don't treat it as anything unusual.
Initially it was sort of tossed as Carlos having some kind of mystic perfection that everyone was entranced by, so I'm glad they decided to play it as genuine attraction.

I heard about this in the podcast thread, and downloaded a handful of episodes.
The First Date episode is the one that got me to subscribe.

I've been digging through the archives. Good stuff.

My interpretation was that Carlos was a normal-looking guy and everyone was unnaturally infatuated with him
Either because of something supernatural, or because Carlos is an outsider with a cool job and therefor considered exotic and exciting by the small-town locals, and that gets projected onto his average features to an unhealthy extent.
I love Nightvale for obvious reasons but a huge part of it is that Cecil is an explicitly queer character and there's a positive gay relationship as a core element
I always listen to the very very end of the episode for the proverbs, they're usually really great. You can tell that they're just jokes the writers left on the floor but still wanted to get in somehow.

I always saw him as the kind of dude that wears bowties and suspenders and turtlenecks

He looks like he sounds, which is surprising, lotsa people don't.
Here is some fan art refering only to the first few episodes

Agreed. I actually think it's kind of cute.

They should obviously be taking merch designs from the unbelievably hefty fan art catalog. With proper dues paid to the artists of course.
