Queerview television guide for the weekend of October 24

Return to the days of the sexual revolution as Bravo revisits the entire Swingtown run today, Kevin meets Scotty's parents on Brothers & Sisters and Mad Men wraps up its second season.

These and much more in the full listing,s after the break!

Friday

Swingtown marathon (Bravo) starting at Noon EDT
The entirety of CBS' summer series that was so very gay, despite being primarily about straight people in the suburbs, gets rerun today on Bravo. I'll be catching up on all the episodes I missed due to a malfunctioning DVR, but if you haven't checked out this gem of a series it's well worth sampling. Plus, a few gay characters appear in the later eps.

The Starter Wife (USA) 10:00 PM EDT
Uhm, wow, was Rodney's storyline last week entirely made of talk about the "down low"? Was that script written five years ago? I guess it made the "Molly vs. the gossip blogger" storyline look relatively cutting edge ... and since Rodney doesn't get mentioned at all in the synopsis for tonight's episode, I expect he'll be spending another episode with little to do beyond being a listening board for Molly and Liz.

Saturday

The Graham Norton Show
Graham's guests this week are comedy icon Goldie Hawn, out Danish comedienne Sandi Toksvig and a Danish pop band, Alphabeat. I swear I've seen Toksvig in an episode of AbFab or some other outrageous Britcom but IMDB tells me that's not the case.

Goldie Hawn and Sandi Toksvig

Sunday

Desperate Housewives (ABC) 8:00 PM EDT
We finally get a glimpse into Wisteria Lane's five year gap, a look back that includes Wisteria Lane's Team Gay (Andrew, Bob and Lee). Tonight's ep also features Tim Bagley appearing as Gabby's doctor.

Brothers & Sisters (ABC) 9:00 PM EDT
Okay, at first I wasn't at all into the idea of having Kevin and the Senator's paths combine but last week I was reminded that when those two fight, I don't mind the Senator as much as I usually do. Meanwhile, for Scotty and Kevin it's time for Kevin to meet Ma and Pa Wandel ... will the experience compare to meeting the Walker clan for the first time?

True Blood (HBO) 9:00 PM EDT
Things gets worst for Jason as his V-juice supply runs out ... I guess it's too bad for us that Lafayette turned out not to be the type to take advantage of his desperation, though it sounds like we'll see further lows for him as things get worse. And trust us when we tell you that this is a big week for Lafayette, as we learn how he's getting his juice in the first place.

Mad Men (AMC) 10:00 PM EDT
In a season where Sal turned up married and the Sterling Cooper offices got an openly gay ad man, how will things wrap up for tonight's season finale?

Little Britain USA (HBO) 10:30 PM EDT
Robert Vaughan guests stars on this week's episode, playing a Getty heir who has a run-in with Bubbles DeVeer. Oh that poor, poor man.
