My Fabulous Gay Wedding

And unless I am mistaken, a marriage recognized by one State is respected as a marriage in the remaining States.

You are mistaken ... now. The Defense of Marriage Act ended that.

Back to Kilts in the Media: The miniseries Gay Marriages -- which does not exist, and certainly isn't released on DVD, and has been seen by no one in America -- features two kilted pipers and a kilted drummer at the posh, downtown wedding reception of one of the couples. The grooms themselves wore ordinary day suits.

You are so right about rampant neo-puritanism pervading the USA. Ever since Tom Hanks won an Oscar for Philadelphia, it's been well-nigh impossible to see anything other than fundamentalist Christian images on TV. We have no programs like Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, Queer Eye for the Straight Girl, Queer as Folk, or The L Word. There are no 8-years-running sitcoms with gay main characters, and there are no gay supporting characters to be found in any American TV program. Any such show that might barely make it onto the air will be crushed by such ratings bonanzas as Revleations. It's just channel after channel of dour, jowly men wearing weird hats with buckles on them.

How fortunate that we have Canadian TV to enlighten us. We should all be grateful.

Oh? What about "Will and Grace"? I thought that was an American show. It has had many re-runs over here, and has just started another repeat. It is one of the funniest series I have ever seen on TV and has me in fits of laughter every time.

It seems there's a compromise in the works.

From the looks of it, the show described in this thread will be running on Logo on Mondays at 10 (EST). From the advertisement, it looks like Monday's episode will indeed involve a kilted wedding.

However, with a nod to the vast right-wing conspiracy, the show will be titled, "First Comes Love."

I'll likely tape it, and give a review. Like that Jim Belushi show, I'm apprehensive about this one.

You're right Hamish... beat me to it. That's the only one, though. I'm surprised it's lasted as long as it has, honestly.

The only other one was Ellen, which honestly wasn't all that great a show.

I just saw that show with the kilts in the wedding. It was very cool! The show on DirecTV's LOGO channel is titled, "First Comes Love", and Scott Thompson arranges marriages on it. It makes me really miss Kids in the Hall.

sarcasm is lost on someone, maybe it's me.

If you agree or disagree what makes life so interesting is there is a variety of people in this world and nothing is going to change that. A comedy on TV by a group of Gay men or women is for people to mearly just laugh. Some people can laugh at one another because it's just funny.
Life dosen't always have to be so seriouse.

Excuse me. What kind of idiocy is this? TV is pervaded with homosexuality.



What universe are you in? There is little else on American TV.



Good night. Since your brand of absolute nonesense is apparently permissible, then we shall see if my opposing view is equally permissible.



Being a native Canadian I can most assuredly tell you that you have not the least clue. Advice: take it to Tom's Cafe, or Chris's Atrium. It doesn't belong here.

Well, I agree that someone doesn't have a clue. Sarcasm however subtle, at this didn't even come close to subtle, is to be enjoyed for what it is...humor.
