What could be bad about any project that puts '80s icons Rue McClanahan and Olivia Newton-John together in one scene? Add the outrageous Leslie Jordan and Caroline Rhea, toss in Bonnie Bedelia and veteran actress Beth Grant (No Country for Old Men) and you have Logo's Sordid Lives: The Series. Based on the 1996 play and 2000 film of the same name, the half-hour show chronicles a "dysfunctional family" in Winters, Texas. And yes, there's the Logo-obligatory handsome young wannabe actor (newcomer Jason Dottley) who's struggling to come out to his Republican Baptist family. Look for Sordid Lives to premiere on Wednesday, July 23, at 10 pm/ET. — Ileane Rudolphread more

Logo has greenlit a dozen episodes of Sordid Lives: The Series, based on the 1996 play and 2000 film of the same name. Slated for a fall premiere, Sordid Lives stars Bonnie Bedelia (Heart Like a Wheel), Beth Grant (No Country for Old Men), Rue McLanahan, Olivia Newton-John and Caroline Rhea — many of whom are reprising their roles from the play's previous incarnations — while Leslie Jordan (Will & Grace) will reprise in several episodes his role of Brother Boy.... As it did for the previous season of the CBS series, Showtime's SHO2 will air Big Brother: After Dark, a nightly (and live) three-hour feed from inside the house. The racy fun begins Feb. 12 at midnight ET.read more
