The Beginning of the End... LOGO is pushing forward with this Gay Shallow S**t show, KEPT


LOGO plans to make a mockery of everything we want to change.

I present... the casting call for KEPT
CASTING CALL: "KEPT"

From the same production company that brought you "The Real Housewives Of Atlanta" on Bravo, Classic Entertainment Group (Casting) and LOGO, We are pleased to announce casting for "Kept" – a look at the A List gay social life in NYC.

This series will begin casting immediately – with a series premier next year on LOGO.

Casting For:

Very interested in couples where one guy is the "breadwinner", the other living large on his dime.

We are looking for SUPERSIZED PERSONALITIES and SUPER - FAB EXCITING LIFESTYLES. We want Drama, drama, drama!

You must have A LOT going on-- hot careers, take fabulous vacations, have second homes, do the Hamptons, & Pines or Bucks County or Asbury Park and know the IN social scene in NYC.

You have partnered with a Sugar daddy to make your dreams come true. Together you make a great team.

Maybe you are fresh out such relationship and you are in search of the same.

You are WELL CONNECTED – and there is no doubt that you are part of the "in" gay crowd of NYC.

**We are looking to infiltrate a circle of friends who fits this criteria.**

Open to guys making families or who have children already.

Part of our team will call you right away to set up a casting appointment (in Gramercy Park area).

Yes, give them negative, strongest stereotypes add shallowness and foolishness to make this show happen.

I'm sorry, but this is a freight train of mess. We don't need this right now!

LOGO, are you serious? As a media power for us, you are on your way to f**king everything up.

Please do not consider this! I am emailing this group to voice my concerns.

This is not the time for gay minstrel show.

Why this is sad, let me count the ways (shows I've seen):

Reality Shows:
. Flipping Out
. Rachel Zoe Project
. Addicted to Beauty
. The Fashion Show
. Rupaul Drag Race
. The Amazing Race
. America’s Next Top Model
. Giuliana & Bill
. Project Runway

While I'm happy about the increase in the number of gays on television, it does sadden me that
the diversity of our community is not shown or celebrated.

That Bravo finds the need to produce yet another reality show that shows one type of gay person (as descrided in blog) is disappointing.

-----------

Scripted Shows:
. Modern Family
. Mercy
. Nurse Jackie
. Glee
. Mad Men
. Ugly Betty
. others

News:
. In the Life (a great show)
. 365gay.com

Stations/channels:
. Logo (I can't even watch anymore)
. here (the home of bad movies)

It's no worse than the Black Housewives of Atlanta, or the Mob Housewives of New Jersey, or the Spray-can Orange Housewives of Orange County! I don't understand why people watch those shows, either, but lots of gay men love them!

Coming from a drag queen, it's easy to say, stereotypes exist for a reason. The problem with them is when they are applied indescrimenantly to people who don't self-identify as such.

These folks are being asked to sign up for this show- and I'll bet they'll be excited to do it! I'm sure they'll be made a mockery, but isn't that what the world loves about reality TV?

While I agree it could be a total train wreck, there are those who may enjoy it... and to try to supress it would be to deny their right to entertainment choices, a major defeat to our right of free speach!

You don't have to watch it- that's the great thing about freedom!
