News, Reviews & Commentary on Gay and Bisexual Men in Entertainment and the Media

Winter TV Guide

Thanks to the ongoing writers strike, are you suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder with Desperate Housewives, Pushing Daisies and Gossip Girl having run out of new episodes? Got the winter blues because Ugly Betty, Brothers & Sisters, and Dirty Sexy Money are about to close up their gay-friendly shops?

Cheer up TV enthusiasts, there’s still plenty of GLBT themed television to watch while you cuddle up on the couch with your companion of choice. Whether its reality, drama, comedy, specials, or movies you’re interested in, we’ve got you covered.

Gay Interest Prime-Time Shows Ending Soon:

Ugly Betty (ABC)

Ends: January 24

If you've loved the gender-changing Alex, the pre-twinking Justin, and Marc's (Michael Urie) new romance with the adorable Cliff (David Blue), then I can only imagine how crushed you are to see Ugly Betty go in a couple of weeks. Has the writers’ strike squashed any chance at longterm happiness for Marc and Cliff? Only time will tell.

Brothers & Sisters (ABC)

Ends: February 17

With all the backstage drama over at Brothers & Sisters, I'm glad to see that the show continues to thrive this season. Uncle Saul (Ron Rifkin) has finally made his way out of the closet only to find that he doesn’t have much to do. Meanwhile, Kevin's (Matthew Rhys) on-again-off-again relationship with Scotty continues to make him one of television’s most dysfunctional yet adorable gay characters.

Dirty Sexy Money (ABC)

Ends: TBD

Alec Baldwin's not the only Baldwin having a career spike at the moment (and we don’t mean homophobic Stephen’s turn on Celebrity Apprentice). William Baldwin has proven fearless in his portrayal of Patrick Darling, a politician torn between what his head and what his heart tell him. His relationship with Candis Cayne's transgender character Carmelita has been a highlight of Dirty Sexy Money and one that has never been exploited for cheap laughs. ABC has not announced when they'll burn off the rest of the new episodes, but we'll anxiously await the return of New York's richest and bitchiest family, the Darlings.
