Michael Ausiello is reporting that he's heard that out actor Nathan Lane is set to play a sweeps stunt gay character in an upcoming episode of 'Til Death, appearing as Brad Garrett's gay brother.

While we're happy to see a gay actor playing a gay character on television, we hope that Lane knows what he's getting into before their first table-read...

This week's BEST.GAY.WEEK.EVER is ready for your perusal. I've got the inside story on which of your favorite shows and actors are being considered for Emmy nominations. There is lots to cheer about, but so far it appears neither Matthew Rhys from Brothers & Sisters nor Mark Indelicato from Ugly Betty have put themselves in the running. Let's hop to it, boys! For those of you pining for Noah's Arc you should check out JengoTV.com which features their series The Closet. Bravos' Work Out reached the end of the season, but there is a special reunion ep next week. Looks Jesse has a few word's about Jackie's relationship with the heretofore straight Rebecca. I've also got some fun new photos of the very flashy Eurovision contest which even now has Europe it's grip!

Before I sign off, here are a couple of other items of interest.

• This review describes Scott Weiland of "Velvet Revolver's" outfit as "gay cop" drag. Kinda hard to argue, no?

• Some folks advised T.R. Knight to not come out! Say it isn't so! (Boy, it must have been a slow day at People!)
• Brad "I Love the F word" Garrett will be back with a second season of 'Til Death. Thanks so much FOX!
• Maybe Garrett with like a helping of fagotini!
