The Week in Gay TV: Logo puts us on “The A-List”, “Caprica” returns and “Law & Order” goes international

Welcome to another edition of The Week in Gay TV, your guide to the shows battling for your attention in the week ahead including the debut of Logo’s The A-List: New York, the return of SyFy drama Caprica and the stateside debut of Law & Order: UK.

IFC has a new comedy debuting on Friday with another UK import, The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. A comedy which stars David Cross as an incompetent US executive who ends up in charge of his company’s new London sales office. While he was able to hide his shortcomings working in the states, his lack of knowledge about British culture makes it harder to fake his way through life.

Carter and Shayera Hall appear on this week’s Smallville when Lois goes to Egypt. Meanwhile, Clark has to protect the new Daily Planet reporter, Kat Grant, from an assassin. After last week’s glimpse of Darkseid, however, I’m going to find it difficult to focus during those stories.

Here I go making the fans who fall for nurturing dads and kickass guys swoon in a single picture.

Finally, the Winchesters deal with parental issues on a new Supernatural after they discover a baby left behind at a crime scene, prompting a debate whether or not it should be raised as a future hunter. So far, I’m really liking the Winchesters new dynamic this season, hopefully Sam sticks around.

Last week, I asked which Friday show had you most excited about the new season. I figured it would be tough to choose between Supernatural and Smallville, but Supernatural drew the most of your votes, 54.6%.

The Dish's Danielle Fishel with Frida Lay, Key Sedila and Kris Allen

Saturday The Dish celebrates a hundred episodes of mocking the week’s pop culture with plenty of special guests. Danielle Fishel usually does a great job mocking the week’s gayer moments in pop culture, avoiding the easy homophobic joke. Hopefully, the special guests will include drag queens Frida Lay and Kay Sedila.

This week Logo Documentaries brings Hair World, which follow the competitors at the international Hair World Hairdressing Competition. Meanwhile, there’s a new episode of Color Splash with David Bromstad giving a beachy look to an office and a bedroom.

It’s not specifically gay, but I’m excited that this week’s Saturday Night Live host is Breaking Bad’s Bryan Cranston. I thought Cranston’s comic talents were severely underrated in his Malcolm in the Middle days and Breaking Bad has given him a chance to show he can be funny in a very dark story. Hopefully, I won’t let my expectations exceed SNL’s capabilities.
