Logo Greenlights Three New Series, Including the Return of "Be Good Johnny Weir"

With the enormous success of RuPaul's Drag Race, and the enormous ... attention ... that The A-List: New York has received, Logo (our parent company) has given the go-ahead for three new original shows premiering in 2011.

Below are the details and show descriptions from the press release about each show. We'll post more information as it becomes available.

The first season of Be Good Johnny Weir (which was originally seen on Sundance and premieres on Logo in Winter 2011) delivers an absorbing portrait of an Olympic athlete whose personality is as big as his talent. Bright, quick-witted and extroverted, Weir is as comfortable walking in a downtown New York fashion show as he is on the ice, and he is known for giving candid, irreverent, responses at press events. At the same time, Weir has the athletic prowess to back up his pop culture stardom, demonstrating both breathtaking grace and supreme technical skill.

He also injects his larger-than-life persona into his routines - wearing sparkly self-designed "onesie" costumes portraying androgynous characters in controversial programs like "The Swan." Weir was heavily favored going into the 2006 Torino Winter Olympics, but finished a disappointing fifth.

In the series, Weir realizes that talent alone does not make a champion - and at the age of 25 he knows he must dig deep if he is to secure what may be his last chance at a place on a U.S. Olympic team. Be Good Johnny Weir follows Weir as he competes all over the globe, culminating in his appearance at the 2010 US Figure Skating Championships in January, the results of which determine whether or not he will vie for the Olympic gold on the world stage in Vancouver.

The new season (which will premiere on Logo in Summer 2011) will dive deeper into Johnny's work and personal life as he balances his skating with his growing ambitions in the entertainment business.

Pretty Hurts (which premieres February 2011) is a comedic reality series starring Beverly Hills' lovable "injector to the stars" Rand Rusher. Hollywood's high maintenance elites learn that "Pretty Hurts" when they come to Rand's office to get frozen, smoothed and plumped up with cosmetic injectibles – but the real funny stuff happens in between the needle pricks.

The staff is its own cast of fabulous LA eccentrics, headed up by Rand's ex, Curt, who manages the whole business - and the homes that he and Rand still share. It's not always domestic bliss. The rest of the staff juggles the ever shifting dynamics of Curt and Rand's relationship with the diva-ish demands of their over- the-top clientele.

Each episode follows at least one client's procedure — and all the funny little dramas that really get under your skin when you're working with the ones you love.
