AfterElton Briefs: Eric Sheffer Stevens Gives us Hope, "Glee" Gives us "Faith," Bryan Fuller Gives Us SyFy, and More!

Plus two guys try to break the world kissing record, Steven and Chris are bringing it south, and Ride The Chute!

• Before the world moves on to the next flavor-of-the-month, you can show your support to Steven Slater by joining the Facebook page or nabbing one of the above tasty t's (the proceeds are unlikely to go to his legal bills, however.) Or you can do what one adorably enterprising fellow did and create an Urban Dictionary entry for "Ride The Chute."

• Spurf is reporting that out Pushing Daisies creator Bryan Fuller is moving to SyFy for his next project, an adaptation of the novel The Lotus Caves. I've never read the book, but from what I gather it was written forty years ago and is about two teenage boys exploring the moon. I assume they run afoul of some deadly lotus flowers or something. If I could make a casting suggestion for Bryan ... age the lead characters a bit and hire Liam and Chris Hemsworth. Trust me.

• GLAAD's Call To Action against hateful Clear Channel host Jim Quinn has provided results: Farmer Insurance Group has pulled their ads from his nationally syndicated show.

• It was a great night for out candidates in Tuesday's Colorado and Connecticut primaries.

• Among the stars that Glee will pay tribute to this season is George Michael, who will release the remastered version of his 1987 classic album Faith to coincide with the premiere of the episode. I so want to hear Sue Sylvester sing "I Want Your Sex."

• Nelson Branco has a great interview with Eric Sheffer Stevens about the end of As The World Turns and how his Reid character captured people's hearts in just a few short months. Eric also dangles this choice cut: "I think because Reid and Luke know each other very well and they’ve embarked on this beautiful journey together, their first time will be very meaningful." So does this mean, despite all of our doubts, LuRe actually, possibly, might hit the sheets?

• Good luck to Matty and Bobby, two New Jersey college students who are attempting to break the record for the longest continuous kiss.

Something is tingling, but I don't think it's my spider-sense

• Steven and Chris is a Canadian talk show that's headed down to the States starting on September 13. Steven and Chris are also an off-screen couple, so this upcoming season of afternoon TV is going to be chock full of the gay! We've got these guys, Sara Gilbert, Ellen, Nate Berkus, and soon Rosie O'Donell again. (h/t to Cathy.In.Canada).

• Finally, I mentioned Steven Slater up top, and leave it to Stephen Colbert to put things in perspective. He's just named Steven the "Alpha Dog of The Week."
