Ron RifkinBig gay round-up on last night's Brothers & Sisters
*** Spoilers ahead *** Last night’s episode of Brothers & Sisters, “Compromises”, was chock full of gay stuff. First, Kevin meets Scotty’s friends. I hope they’re just his “bar” friends and not his closest friends, because they make a very arch, catty and unpleasant little sewing circle if you ask me. Anyway, they think Kevin is stuck up and button-downed. Me, I’m totally siding with Kev on this one. Still, Kevin is incensed at being thought uptight so he takes Sarah back to the bar the next night (because Scotty and his friends are there every night) to prove them wrong by getting drunk and performing some really tragic karaoke. The bar is called “Cinammon Jack’s” — not to be confused with the lesbian bar down the street, “Nutmeg Nancy’s.”
Meanwhile, Jason joins brother Robert on the campaign trail in Michigan where he discovers that Isaac, the Machiavellian political consultant who publicly outed him years ago, is now working for his brother’s campaign. Needless to say he’s a little miffed.
And if that weren’t enough, Saul finally got some screen time — first fending off Nora’s request to talk about his personal life, and then sharing a glass of pinot with Veronica Mars’ dad, who must be working undercover or something.

This is charming news: out actors John Glover (Smallville) and Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother) and Ron Rifkin, who is currently playing a gay man on Brothers & Sisters, will reprise their roles in The Paris Letter, by out playwright Jon Robin Baitz (who also created B&S) at the Los Angeles Theater Works. The trio have all performed in the play previously (Glover in the show's Off-Broadway run and Rifkin and Harris in 2004). The play tells the story of a repressed, high-powered Wall Street type whose life is thrown into turmoil after an affair with a younger, male colleague. And given that since these gents last performed in the play one has been led to come out publicly as a gay man and another is playing one of the few gay characters on television, one can't help but wonder how it might have a new resonance. Josh Radnor (Harris's HIMYM co-star) and Patricia Wettig (B&S, thirtysomething) co-star. It's also great to see Rifkin and Wetting working in another Baitz-penned work, particularly given his high-profile exit from the show, which is currently in production limbo due to the strike.
