Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Anyone watching Acceptable Roughness and their (at least) two part gay storyline? My sister sent me a link to Chris Kluwe saying they got it right: [link]

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Necessary roughness?

I saw the first part, but not the second one yet.

Compassionately intolerant

The second half is on tonight.

I really like Peter McNichol's role as a Dani's therapist. He's pretty realistic.

I have no idea what put "Acceptable" in the place "Necessary" is supposed to be.

It's not Southland without Sherman going on a long-distance run after a perp.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I liked the Necessary Roughness, and it will be interesting to see what happens going forward.

Yeah, me too.

I'm trying to work out which shows had characters who came out during the season, and I don't mean "Mum! Billy whose name we never mentioned before today just got married" either those are just masturbatory back pats.

I think that, at least for this season, Rexy is going to be the other

The other what?

I do think most people, when confronted with a surprising coming-out, would roll with it fine, even if it took them a minute, so that felt realistic. But he should definitely stay off the internet. I also enjoyed TK calling their date "T-Rex."

Der--the other team member with lines. I hit Post on more than one last night without bothering to complete the thought process's translation into words. Good going there, ita !.

I don't know when the season ends, but at least they didn't randomly grab some guy out of nowhere and give him the storyline--they used someone the viewers had developed a relationship with already.

eta: I disagree about the rolling with it. I'm still watching people not coping with gay members of my family, from just hearing to years later. And these are people they're supposed to love unconditionally and shit.

That was the season finale, I think.

Oh really? Uggghhh, people! I almost opened with "Call me crazy, but I think" and now I see I should have!
