Jason Bateman Played a Gay for Five Whole Episodes
Manage episode 289933227 series 2122231
“Pilot” (February 28, 2001)
In the wake of Will & Grace’s success, the other broadcast networks each made efforts at their own homo-centric TV shows, and the CBS twist on this formula was Some of My Best Friends, which lasted only five episodes. The show was an adaptation of the indie comedy Kiss Me Guido, and it starred Jason Bateman and Alec Mapa as its resident gays. Guy Branum — stand-up comedian, funny book-writing person and all-around good opinion-haver — joins us to talk about this pop culture also-ran, twenty years after the fact.
Buy Guy’s book, My Life as a Goddess.
