Friday
The Young and the Restless (CBS) Check local listings
Today's installment features an appearance of Judge David Young in his first acting job ... and, no, he won't be playing himself.
Doctor Who (SciFi) 9:00 PM EDT
We're down to Russell T. Davies's final four episodes on Doctor Who, as Davies starts to build things up for his big finale (this is also the 50th episode since Davies took charge of the franchise).
E! True Hollywood Story (E!) 9:00 PM EDT
THS takes a look at the life and tragic death of Heath Ledger.
Late Night with Conan O'Brien (NBC) 12:37 AM EDT

Saturday
Catherine Tate and James Nesbitt
The Graham Norton Show (BBC America) 10:00 PM EDT
Oh boy, it's Catherine Tate and James Nesbitt chatting with Graham this week. If they could capture the energy of that conversation, they could power a major city for weeks.
Sunday
Big Brother (CBS) 8:00 PM EDT
So. Uhm. Yeah. Big Brother is back and after the nastiness of the last two seasons, the mere idea of watching Big Brother just leaves me feeling exhausted. On the other hand, gay rodeo bull rider Steven seems not to have the catty "I'm here to stir things up" personality that Big Brother usually seeks in gay men. He says his strategy will involve using his gayness to befriend the women and his macho pastime to befriend the guys, which, annoyingly, gets me interested a bit.
Big Brother's gay housemate, Steven
Design Star (HGTV) 9:00 PM EDT
The final five designers face the dreaded kitchen challenge this week ... considering the difficulty that one usually gives hopefuls (or so the HGTV site tells me), should we worry about the newly re-enforced team gay?
Brooke Knows Best (VH1) 10:00 PM EDT
The Hogan Knows Best spin-off sees the Hogan daughter out on her own and living with a gay roommate, Glenn, dragging me into a corner of the VH1 reality universe I've avoided until now.

Howdy, Steven
Future epitaph: "It seemed like a good idea at the time."
Nice eyes. Great smile. Huge....buckle.
Midnight
Really?
I'm hard-pressed to remember anything LGBT inclusive about the Midnight episode. It was well done, for sure (though I think I'd use "tense" moe than "fun" to describe it).
As far as the next comment that this was the favorite episode of the season . . . for me, the one-two punch of the finale was a pinnacle. I'm still thinking about how beautiful the ending was, and how epic--and poetic--RTD knows how to make things.
More inadvertent-fanboy musings at the blog.
Yep
When Mrs...something (Lesley Sharps character) is talking to the Dr. she says that she just broke up with her partner and that "she" (refering to her partner) said they needed space so "she" went to another galaxy.
As for "fun". The episode was tense, even disturbing. It was something unusual for Dr. Who in this magnitude. And that was "fun" to watch.
You're right, netogeno...
Midnight
New Season of Color Splash!
Actually, RTD isn't done yet.
That's true...
One last Doctor Who/Barrowman comment
I was watching a Brit talk show on YouTube, in which John Barrowman was asked the U.K. version of "marry, fuck or kill" (I believe they call is "wed, shag, or push off a cliff"). The two odd-looking male hosts were two of his choices and David Tennant was the third. Barrowman said he'd have to choose Tennant for shagging, since the Doctor's nickname is "David Ten-inch." Gotta love the size queens . . .
The blog is getting gayer. Mikey V in the blog.
And sigh...
Then they had to air a Graham Norton where they discuss a Doctor Who episode that doesn't air for a couple more weeks, here. Couldn't they have delayed that one for a couple weeks?
