Morning Meme: GLAAD Loses Patience With Washington Post, Russell Tovey's American Replacement, and Stephen Fry's Linguistics

GLAAD seems to have had it up to here (I’m stretching and pointing really high) with everyone. They got into a live Twitter exchange with the Washington Post over that hateful Tony Perkins op ed piece about the recent teen suicides. The Washington Post said they were trying to get both sides of the issue, having hosted Dan Savage in a live chat. GLAAD replied 'There are not "both sides" to this issue. Teen suicide isn't a debate - it's a tragedy. http://bit.ly/crX6q5 #LGBT.'

The review of A Life in the Theater starring Patrick Stewart and T.R. Knight finds it serviceable but not exceptional. Stewart is too intense to be seen in decline, and Knight is said to fill his office and never exceed or falter.

The Florida Department of Children and Families will not appeal the overturning of the state’s ban on gay adoption. Florida Attorney General McCollum, the man who pays Lift My Luggage Rekers to be an expert witness, still has the option of appealing without their support.

Doctor Who will no longer be limited to twelve regenerations, and is effectively immortal. No explanation will be given. It kind of removes the stakes for the Doctor, doesn’t it?

Reports are circulating that Carrie “Opposite Marriage” Prejean will be a castaway on the next “celebrity” Survivor.

The BBC is putting curbs on “derogatory remarks” aimed at real people (characters are still fair game). This is a response to comments that Frankie Boyle made about Rebecca Adlington’s appearance.

There’s a new National Resource on LGBT Aging that has launched, and it’s a great thing.

People who have seen the script for Deadpool say it’s brilliant, and at its best is like reading Van Wilder meets Kill Bill. It’s wildly funny commentary crushed together with over-the-top violence that would give Quentin Tarantino pause.

Hawaii Five-0 is officially the most DVR’d show in history.  Mostly in anticipation of being able to pause it to see if you can look up Scott Caan’s boxer shorts when he visits the doctor. Why are you looking at me like that?

Carl Paladino is begging for forgiveness after making horribly anti-gay remarks, then making horribly anti-gay explanations. I have to wonder if his mythical gay nephew called him and said “Say you’re sorry then STOP TALKING.”

Joan Collins has found her inner Dynasty beyotch. She says that Angelina Jolie is the only beautiful actress in today’s world, and Jennifer Aniston is merely “cute.” Honestly, I used to find Angelina beautiful, but these days I just want to feed her a cookie.

Lifetime has picked up Heidi Klum’s new version of a show that sounds suspiciously like Kids Say the Danrdest Things. Which could be funny, trying to understand the kids, and Heidi.

How To Train Your Dragon is going to be an animated series on the Cartoon Network. But seriously, how long does it take to train a dragon? One episode, two episodes, one full season tops? Or are they untrainable, like cats?

They’ve released the description of Greek’s farewell season, and Calvin doesn’t even come up.

A new study by people who don’t understand Twitter says 71% of tweets are ignored. They based this on the fact that no one replied to the tweets, which means nothing.

Chelsea Handler is getting a scripted series that’s about the behind-the-scenes show about her talk show. In other words, to steal a punch line from Dave Holmes, it’s The Larry Sanders Show except you see the punch lines coming from a mile away.

Fox’s Terra Nova hasn’t shot a single frame of film, and it’s reportedly spent $10 million getting ready to shoot the pilot.

Gay rights campaigner and agony aunt Claire Rayner has passed away at age 79. She will be missed.

Liza Minelli doesn’t understand why gay fans love her. We have a choice? I thought it was mandatory.
