Showtime Developing A Coming Out Show - Fagulous!

Showtime is currently developing a show documenting the coming out process called Way Out.

Helmed by Bryn Freedman of A&E's Intervention, the program will follow closeted individuals through their hidden lives, their eventual coming out, and the reaction of family and friends.

Freedman hopes the show will be "all about getting to know the person - why they have been reluctant to come out and what it looks like to be living a lie, (and) what it is like when people are trying to set you up with dates."

He believes the show will have "universal appeal because everybody can relate to having part of their lives hidden" and that like Intervention, which elicited some concern and controversy, people will "see we're treating this subject with absolute respect and care and expect it will open a lot of hearts and minds."

Sounds interesting!

      OH LG LOVES INTERVENTION TOO! DO YOU REMEMBER THE GUY THAT USED TO HAVE HIS OWN CHAIN OF TANNING SALONS AND WAS A BODYBUILDER OR SOMETHING AND THEN WASTED AWAY TO NOTHING–AND DIED.
      .
      .
      THAT WAS SO AWFUL–ALCOHOL NEARLY GOT LG BUT LG HAS NOT TOUCHED
      A DROP IN YEARS AND NEVER HAS A DESIRE TO, EITHER!!!
      .
      .
      YOU KNOW, AA ISN'T FOR EVERYBODY–IT'S JUST ANOTHER DRUG IN LG'S EXPERIENCE, A RELIGION, IF YOU WILL. WHAT GOT LG OFF DRINKING WAS HER OWN DESIRE AND A MARVELOUS MEDICATION CALLED "CAMPRAL."
      .
      YOU KNOW, MOST PEOPLE IN REHAB ARE "REPEAT CUSTOMERS." REHAB AND AA ARE NOT THE ONLY ALCOHOL CESSATION PROGRAMS THAT WORK.
      THE WAY TO ACHIEVING AN ALCOHOL-FREE LIFE SHOULD REALLY BE AN
      INDIVIDUAL'S PATH!!!
      .
      .
      LOVE,
      LG

      .
      so happy to hear you won your struggle. never heard of campral, but glad it helped you!
      .
      i love a clean and sober LG!

      ugh i so thought of this. Only I wanted to write a book and feature most of my family and friends/classmates



    24. 24

      18 YOU ARE AWESOME AND AN INSPIRATION TO ALL!



    25. 25

      7 Just sayin….I was going to agree with you, then I discovered I can not reply to you.
      Another suspicious Perez poster you are!
      Just sayin!



    26. 26

      that is so gay



    27. 27

      .
      DARLINGS, EVEN WHEN LG WAS DRINKING LG NEVER CHOKED ON A PRETZEL!
      .
      NOW LG IS HARDLY A SCRIPTURE QUOTER BUT LG IS OF COURSE WELL READ ON MANY SUBJECTS, BOTH FACT AND FICTION. ANYHOO, ONE VERSE FROM PROVERBS LEADS LG TO THINK OF DEAR DUBYA AND IT GOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS:
      "WHO HATH WOE, WHO HATH WOUNDS WITHOUT CAUSE? HE WHO TARRY LONG AT THE WINE, HE WHO GOES OUT AND SEEKS MIXED WINE."
      .
      .
      INTERESTING, NO?
      .
      .



    28. 28

      this sounds familiar….
      i think we have a show back in the PHILIPPINES 6 years ago(not sure) about COMING OUT. PRETTY MUCH THE SAME CONCEPT.
      I CANT REMEMBER THE TITLE OF THE SHOW BUT I THINK IT DIDNT LAST FOR A LONG TIME DUE TO THE SHOW LACKS LUSTER AND ITS A BIT TABOO FOR PHILIPPINE AUDIENCES.



    29. 29

      I'LL BE ON IT!!!!……….THAT IS…IF YOU CAN START ME OFF AS A MILD MANNERED ADVERTISING GUY..AND THAN FAST FOREWARD TO ME RIMMING CHACE CRAWFORD….WHEN ZAC EFRON WALKS IN ON US!!!!!!
      THAT WOULD BE TOO FUCKING HOT!!!



    30. 30

      HEY LEONA'S GHOST!!! GIRL YOU NEED TO TALK TO ME GIRL!!! I'M PISSED AS FUCK THEY CANCELLED QUEER AS FOLK. PEOPLE COMPARE ME TO BRIAN KINNEY..HATE THAT!!! BUT HOLLER GIRL!!



    31. 31

      Re: Pwn3d! – I lol'd hard.
      This show is going to suck just as bad as everything else they come up with.



    32. 32

      i saw a show like this on the gay lesb network. it was very interesting to a straight veiwpoint.



    33. 33

      OK. I want some one to explain what the hell this "living a lie" means. Does it mean that a fag goes around with women as a cover?? Can't wear a dress to work?? Doesn't go around flaming in public?? Damn. Too bad I don't have Showtime. And this gives me another reason NOT to get it. What are they trying to do?? Out homo Bravo?? Turning into the fag network. This show will be a GIANT yawn. I bet there will be NO women "coming out" on it. Just a bunch of dick lickers crying to the camera about how hard there fucked uo fag life has been. NOTHING is stopping these people from "coming out" EXCEPT their own lack of balls. It 's like a white guy dating a black woman, but not wanting anyone to know. If you are a fag, be a fag. If not, SHUT THE FUCK UP.

      Well, there is always viewer interest in Freak Sideshows.
