Johnny Are You Queer?

Lifetime is set to debut the latest take on reality TV dating with its new "Gay, Straight or Taken?" Reading through the press materials, however, I'm still trying to figure out how exactly this is any different from Fox's 2004 bomb, "Playing It Straight," which was canceled after only three episodes -- but should have been shelved completely.
Listen to what Lifetime has to say about the show. Has anyone in the history of the world ever played this "game"?
You and your friends play it at parties. You play it at the gym. You even play it at work. You know the game: It's … is he gay? Straight? Taken? Well, now you can watch unsuspecting singletons looking for love -- or just a decent date -- play it on Lifetime! (Lifetime)
HUH?
It's funny, 'cause I'm playing a game right now, too .... you know the game: It's ... is it lame? Offensive? Or just plain f**king retarded?

Hi There,

I have been a regular reader of your blog's for a while now, which I always enjoy stopping by.
Would you be up for a link-swap ?

I definitely will not be watching this show. Unless it's sooo trashy I just have to watch it when I miss my Jerry Springer in the mornings.

LOL! I know, since when can't you be gay and taken -- or straight and taken?
