Very well said guys! I totally agree with both of you - but i've accepted that the average US citizen is a complete dumbass, and mass media companies of course must cater to the masses. These shows aren't targeted at gay audiences, so they have to be "dumbed down" and full of stereotypes. But Jason is right, its paving the way; without all these new gay shows, there would be a MUCH smaller chance of an all-gay channel ever being launched in the US. I want one damn it! Then we will see a true evolution in gay media. Gay TV BY gay men and women FOR gay men and women.
