It should be available the day after airing for free on abc.go.com and for a small fee at iTunes.

I’m DVRing Melrose Place (Amanda returns in November!!!), but I haven’t had the time to watch it yet.

I can’t see this show because I don’t have cable! Someone give me their television access so I can know what you all are talking about. Until then I will be watching my COMPLETE collections of the two best showz of all time: “Arrested Development” and “The Simple Life.”

Yay! Dave’s back!

I’ll give the show a shot.

Tam – no DVR/TiVo? Ouch. I’ll light a candle for you.

I was going to say that I was taken aback by the over the top gayness of that grin, but my consistent sleeveless-ness and eyeliner abuse kind of cancel out my faux-outrage…

GoKitty: Yeah, but I’m the one that sent them the link, so I think that negates any coolness that would have been.

A note: one of the actors in the gay couple is Jesse Tyler Ferguson who is, in fact, gay. Imagine that! A gay person actually playing a gay person on TV! Groundbreaking.

The subway ads made me nauseous because I got the sense that these were three separate families, all looking pretty average except for the “wild and wacky” gay family. I was ready to get pissed off. But I read an article that explains they are all part of the same extended family, which is fairly dysfunctional, so the “wacky” is evenly distributed. Also, it’s done similar to The Office, in that it’s a mockumentary. So it has potential.

That is, if I actually watched any TV. Which I don’t.

Well there’s always lots of feeding going on. But biscuits? Never.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I heard that gay people never feed themselves. There’s always someone by their side ready to feed them. With a smile. I might be misinformed.

Awww, it feels like old times here: Dave S. and Polt teasing each other, all of us comparing notes on what we do and don’t watch.

I think I need a tissue. *sniff sniff*
