Poor, poor Reichen — Page 2

Dollypop, I am not sure what you mean by "friends" with Reichen, but do you make an appearance in the show? Maybe at one of the parties?
And they are using their real names and it is reality TV, I don't know why you would say it is scripted.
But back to Reichen. I found it so sweet of him to say that a relationship must be honest and free of secrets (I am paraphrasing) and then for him to protect the Brazilian boyfriend from knowing that the pudgy ex-boyfriend/ex-model/presently psycho boy had actually seen his wiener by telling him they "might have kissed a couple of times."
Reichen is so thoughtful to protect the Brazilian's feelings.

No, I am in no way part of A-List. Not at all!
I can tell you that I was never told outright that the show was scripted, but in my conversations with Reichen and Rodiney, I certainly got that impression. Please realize that this is supposedly a "reality TV show" and the guys are probably under contract not to discuss the specifics of the show. I'd been through that a few years ago with another friend, so I didn't push the issue here. I'm sensing that their real-life stories served as an outline for situations where dialogue was improvised in front of the cameras. Again, no one told me this. I am just sensing it. I honestly believe that Reichen's supposed ex boyfriend was brought in specifically to create conflict. He may actually be a fictional character. Again, this is solely my conjecture on my part.
I felt terribly uncomfortable watching a TV show where they were discussing the privates of someone I consider a friend. At that point I stopped watching the show.

But is what Austin saying true? Is Reichen not so great in bed?
And to give the show a bit of credit, I don't think any of these guys are professional actors, but the emotions sure seem real. I don't think it is anything but hidden cameras and everything coming out of their mouths is the truth. Well, maybe not the "truth" but certainly not scripted.
What was the other show you were involved with, Dolly? (Please don't say Rock of Love).

Any show that discussed the genitalia of my friends would be on my permanent Series Recording list on my DVR.

I still haven't forgiven him for dumping Chip.
Like I still haven't forgiven Rod Jackson for dumping Bob Paris.

Apparently, you have to date a "high profile" gaylebrity and then break up with them?

He shines like a bacon out onto our suffering gay culture. He's "It Gets Better" personified. Sure, he thought Harvey Milk was a hunky dairy spokesmodel and Stonewall was a sexual position he did with Lance, but still....
And don't you DAAARE say its scripted. It's reality T.V. How could it be scripted?

Speaking of bacon, being A-list also requires you to cook breakfast over a stove in your underwear, because nothing says A-list like pubic area grease burns.

Being A-list evidently also means you have a couples counselor who makes house calls.
I wonder how the idiots, sorry, cast now feels about the show and how they come off on it, now that it is being shown? Will they still be A-listers after this? Will Austin ever get his 8-pack back?
My God, it's utter CHAOS!!!

The only redeeming element of the show is Mike Ruiz and his widowed father. Their relationship is very touching and honest; the father has come to appreciate, love, and respect his son who would "take a bullet for him".
I wonder why a talented photog like Mike is on this silly show. Sad to say this sort of effete, narcissistic gay is all you will see in many parts of the country, not just NYC.

Huh? I've never known anyone anything like these pampered self-obsessed queens. Most of us are just folks, working for a living, watching TV, mowing the yard. If this show accurately depicts your life I pity you. Make some changes.

"Most of us" mow the yard? To any young people reading this, I just want to assure you, it gets better.

Maybe I should have said "Most of us have cute boyfriends who mow the yard?"
