- The Sci Fi Channel's Tin Man scored a very respectable 6.3 million viewers in its debut. That's Alan Cumming helping to build a Tin Man-inspired Habitat for Humanity house. Presumably it comes insured against tornados.
- Out actor David Hyde Pierce has re-signed for another sixth months as the lead in Broadway's musical comedy Curtains,
for which he won the Tony. His stint will now run through the end of
August ... I guess I shouldn't be holding my breath for a Wet Hot American Summer 2?
- John Barrowman's co-host on Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber's
in-the-works reality competition to find the UK's best choir will be
singer and talk show host Charlotte Church.
- Some pranksters thought adding a bunch of gay jokes to Australian Idol Guy Sebastian's
Wiki page was funny. How crass. See, guys, here in the States we
gay-bait the hosts and judges, not the contestants. Oh, alright, we
gay-bait everyone.
- "Ask a Gay Man" ... well, gay man William Sledd is getting a pilot for a Bravo series tentatively titled Hey, Bitches! Let's hope it works out better for him than it did for Perez Hilton with his Bravo pilot. Wait, did I just say that?

"The Sci Fi Channel's Tin Man scored a very respectable 6.3 million viewers in its debut."
From Zap2it: "The network scored its best ratings ever for the first night of its "Tin Man" miniseries, a reimagining of the L. Frank Baum classic, "The Wizard of Oz.""
Is very respectable the appropriate word for a record breaking show?

Tin Man = <3
But stupid cable is fuzzy because I live in Minnesota. And we have a foot of snow in 24 hrs. Gawrsh.
My mom: "I don't remember an Azkedelia in the books."
Me: "Mom, it's a reimagining of it, not a new version of it."
My mom: "But it's nothing like the books..."
Me: "That's the point."
We love it regardless though. Zooey Deschanel and Alan Cumming are like my favourite people right now. Why do I recognize Azkedelia?
