Queerview television guide for May 1st

Happy May Day! Wait -- it is May Day, right? Or is that just what you yell when your boat is sinking?

Here's what's gay on the tube today... 

The Oprah Winfrey Show (Syndicated) Check local listings
I hate to even mention this trainwreck, but Dina McGreevey (ex-wife of ex-hetero ex-New Jersey governor Jim McGreevey) is on Oprah today to shill her new book. Let's hope Ope keeps things on the level.

Work Out (Bravo) 10:00PM EDT
Tonight's episode is a tough one -- as Michael mentioned in his column, the trainers learn of the severity of Doug's situation while Jackie is away visiting her father's grave and Peeler (Doug's best bud at the gym) is in charge. Add a porn star with a touching story about being gay in the military, and you've got a pretty charged hour of television. Check back here tomorrow for a new exclusive interview with Peeler, in which he discusses Doug's passing.

The Big Gay Sketch Show (Logo) 10:00PM EDT
On a considerably lighter note, a new Big Gay airs tonight -- and trust me, it's much funnier than the first. There's a cute skit on lesbian speed-dating, a bit about an assassin who tries out for a Broadway show (strange, but funny), and my favorite character so far -- Fitzwilliam, the wealthy British boy who wants a vagina for Christmas. As I said in my review, they ain't all gems -- but this ep is pretty strong overall.
