Queer Makeover Pilot
Cancelled after Assault
New York City, NY | Straight Eye for the Queer Guy, featuring five heterosexual males who attempt to "butch up" a different gay man each week, has been shelved indefinitely.
The problem-plagued spin-off "reality" program reached its tragic climax during Saturday's televised Yankees-Red Sox game.
"The queer was being kind of a bitch," the show's producer explained. "He didn't like wearing the beer cap. And he wouldn't high-five anybody - he said it hurt."
Then, just before the ninth inning, several of the straight guys went to the kitchen for more pork rinds and Mountain Dew.
"Gayboy grabbed the remote and said he wanted to watch 'the Twins' for a minute. When the guys came back, he had clicked over to Find with Leigh & Leslie Keno on PBS. He wouldn't tell anyone where he hid the remote, and a couple of the jocks went ballistic."
The injured "makeover" candidate was hospitalized for observation, but later released. His lawyers say they are considering a number of charges including assault, breach of contract, and various fashion offenses.
