Get ready boys,
the Gay Housewives are coming to Dallas! And LA! Logo's sign of the End Times,
The A List, is apparently such a hit that the network's programming brain trust is planning spin-offs for Dallas and LA. The consensus on the gay interwebs seems to be Dallas? Really? Why Dallas? Are you people kidding me? Dallas is perfect for this! Dallas invented conspicuous consumption! This is the birthplace of Neiman Marcus and Mary Kay and Lucy Ewing and the frozen margarita! No place can do shallow and pretty like Dallas can do shallow and pretty, and for Dallas gays, shallow and pretty is turned up to 11. I'm surprised it took Logo so long to figure this out.
Here's the casting notice:
Are you a Dallas mo? Are you painfully chic? Have you never read a book in your life? Do you not understand why I asked that question? Is your brain as wrinkle-free as your face? Do you have a charge account at Barney's? Would you blow the cute Barney's clerk for a discount but refuse to be seen with him in public because he's a counter queen? Then here is your opportunity for fame!
I can think of several guys I've dated who would be perfect for this shit.
By the way, if you haven't been reading
Tom and Lorenzo's hilarious recaps of each
A List episode, you should. LC NY Bureau Chief Doug sends me each update.

I do NOT believe it! Truly, I don't. I had not idea it was a hit. Clearly, there are lots of people like me, who vociferoulsy decry Logo's Gay Stereotypes on Parade...and then turn right around and WATCH it! [Note to Self: Kick my own ass.] Well, this "A-List" roll-out will give Tom & Lorenzo plenty to hilariously blog about.
Movie Tip: "Please Give" with Catherine Keener. Watched it last night via Netflix. Marvelous. Quirky, funny, New Yorky and has a heart. Excellent performances.
So, you're going to be on this show when? LOL
Mike, I assume you've already been recruited for the LA version.
This is the best news I've heard all day! The fact that they haven't done a Dallas "Real Housewives" boggles my mind, but "A-List" will have to do! Btw, the NYC version is so guilty of a pleasure that I've been tried and convicted by a jury of my peers... and I don't care!
OH SNAP. It would probably be like watching the "Golden Girls".
