Gigolos has had some interesting scenarios for our male escort this season and I can’t wait to see what happens next Thursday at 10p on the Showtime show. I mean I thought it was bad when Nick had to have sex with a woman who wore a teddy bear costume the whole time, but looks like he got off easier than Brace will. The oldest man in the group will transform into a woman, and even though he said “I’d f*ck me”, I am not sure many people would agree. He is not a pretty woman to say it nicely, but I guess for the right price he is!
And in case you missed yesterday’s furry situation, below is a preview of what you didn’t see. Let’s just say after watching this it was too much for me to bear, so I removed all the teddy bears from my room and placed them in the closet.
Gigolos is going to be back for a third season on Showtime on August 30th and there is a new guy for rent this season. Jimmy is out (reportedly for issues from his personal life) and Ash from Miami is in. On first glance, I think I want Jimmy back because I would not pay for the new guy. Actually I wouldn’t pay for any of them if I were ever going to hire a male escort. Even though I would never want or need to use a male prostitute, I can’t get enough of the show that was created by Richard Grieco, yes that Richard Grieco.
Yesterday at Showtime‘s summer press day David Nevins, President of Entertainment, had some good news and some bad news for us about The Big C. The good news is that The Big C was picked up for a fourth season, the bad news is it will be the show’s final one and it’s shortened to 4 1-hour installments. Since the decision is very recent, creatively they are still working out the details like who will be back and who will not be returning to say goodbye. Nevis did say that they are planning on shaking up the format, but he expects that most everyone will be back.
Other news that came out of the session is that Weeds will light its final joint on September 16th, and Homeland and Dexter will be back two weeks later on the 30th. Later on during the panel, Nevins said that even though it was announced that these are the last two seasons for the serial killer show, anything can happen and it can go on past its reported end date. Inside Comedy is also coming back for a 10 episode second season and this time David Steinberg will be talking to great comedians like Ben Stiller, Tina Fey, Judd Apatow, Carol Burnett, Will Ferrell, Jim Carrey, and Albert Brooks. Another show that was mentioned was the Golden Globe winning Episodes and as of yesterday it has not been picked up for another season, but Nevins says that he expects to be back for another one. The big news that had everyone got excited about is the upcoming series Masters of Sex. Nevins described it as, “Masters of Sex stars Michael Sheen and Lizzy Caplan as human sexuality pioneers William Masters and Virginia Johnson. The series examines their fascinating relationship and follows their pop culture trajectory from a St. Louis teaching hospital to Johnny Carson’s couch and the cover of Time magazine.” After he got us aroused by the content, he showed a very titillating trailer that definitely peeked out interest. Then later on in a press circle he said that the series will have equal parts nudity for men and women. He also said that people were turned down for roles if they had a no-nudity clause because of the subject of the show which is human sexuality.
And on that note, I had to ask him about my favorite show on Showtime, Gigolos and what the future is for the reality show about male prostitutes in Vegas. He said, “Gigolos continues. I don’t know what the future holds, but it is amusing while it is here.”
So I guess you can say it always showtime on Showtime.
Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy are expecting their first child together according to People. No other information was given like when the baby is due, but a source told the mag her pregnancy should not impact Homeland.
Episodes is back for a second season tonight on Showtime at 10:30p and you are not going to want to miss a single second of Matt LeBlanc playing himself in the Golden Globe winning role.
The show picks up a little while after Sean found out that Beverly slept with Matt and they are separated. Even though they are no longer together they are still working on Pucks together. Pucks is making its debut and now it is up for the public to decide how they feel about the show within a show. Will they like it or will it cancelled faster than Paul Reiser’s show? You have to tune in to find out on the sitcom about making a sitcom.
Coming on Episodes this season, there will be a funeral, plastic surgery gone horribly wrong, a stalker, an affair, a lot of funny ways to use LeBlanc to describe bad things, A Friends reunion with someone from the show, an epic fight scene, someone is getting fired and lots and lots laughs. So make sure to add this Sunday viewing because it will make your work week start off on the right jolly old not.
