    Danny was my first gay crush on a gay man, and an amazing awakening for a closeted gay boy who only ever knew about the stereotypical flamers.

    Then a couple years ago I saw him at Eastern Bloc sitting on the bench groping cute boys like an old man at a strip club and the charm wore off.

    @fuzzywhat: Is Eastern Bloc a well known bar? I was there about six weeks ago, and for some reason I've seen it mentioned on Gawker at least a few times in the past several days.

    @mattchew03: Yes. If Gawker had a patron gay bar, it would be Eastern Bloc. Feel free to ignore nostalgia-breaths who tell you it was better as Wonder Bar, even if they're right.

    Crikey . . . So I guess in 2014 we can expect a Friends reboot, huh? When this comes to pass, I vote casting Jonathon Lipnicki as Chandler, Dakota Fanning as Rachel, Jennifer Aniston as Rachel's mom, and Judah Friedlander as Ugly Naked Guy . . .

    Also, Richard, I wore that exact outfit throughout much of the 90's, but you forgot the paisley rayon, patent leather shoes, and extra crispy bangs. Didn't leave home without my Stiff Stuff hairspray.

    I fully hope this means they can give Kindred: The Embraced a reboot as well, since we're going back into the 90's Aaron Spelling vault of great shows.


    Wow. Kindred was pretty great, and so sad about the lead character. Watched a marathon on the damnable "SyFy" channel last week and had a ball, though. Didn't even remember that officer Dokes from Dexter was on the show and the mom from Gossip Girl, the one who the failed 80's crud was supposed to be about. We won't talk about C. Thomas Howell and what the ferg has happened to him over the years. Ah, the 90's, where everyone's true age is revealed.

    Ms. Dawson is very cool in person. Not like that Lou Ferrigno.
    Yes, this sums up my two (count 'em two!) meetings of actors who've actually been in Hollywood.

    If I remember correctly, 90210 > Melrose Place was Wednesday evenings. Pick a character's name out of a hat and drink whenever they are speaking. If Brenda makes a bitch face, then "Social!" (everybody drinks). College. Sigh.

    I thought that The Real World had gotten too sleazy, but this season made me miss the slutty years. Also funny how the hot tub--prop for much merry making in the past--ceased to be unisex by this final episode.


    Also, they made it look like a really long ride from the Real World house to Ikea, which is about five blocks away.

    We learned that the world is neither real nor made-up, but is absolutely worth being a part of.


    When exactly did we learn this?

    Richard, you have an open invitation to any of my dinner parties. You would totally make the convo delicious with your delicate and masterful mixing of the English language.

    @The Real JR: I would invite Richard to my dinner parties too, but then no one would think I was funny or smart anymore. Everyone would like Richard best!


    Also, my "dinner parties" usually consist of a few people eating take-out on my couch while we watch TV. So there's that.

    First, dearly beloved Jesus the space alien, Richard, you make my sick days so much more enjoyable.


    I watched most of the show during a Sunday marathon while doing some freelance work, so I didn't always catch the facial expressions and context. What bothered me was the weird hatred Ryan, JD and Chet seemed to have towards women, and caveat, I am not prone to seeing misogyny wherever I look or when it's convenient to do so.


    I get Chet's jerkery because he's clearly threatened by women (I hate to be that person, but there is something going on in his pale xylophonic ribcage for Ryan). From what I read about JD, he had a disturbing childhood. But Ryan's antipathy and downright cruelty to Katelynn and Sarah is random and misplaced. Dude needs help.
