Correction Sci-Fi saved the show. SyFy would not have done so.

At any rate the show had fantastic cinematography.

I thought so too.

OTOH, SyFy rescued Stargate: SG-1 after SHO dumped it for a program about gay men.

Actually it was Sci-Fi who did that. I think SyFy would repeat what Showtime did. :)

In my mind, it’s gotten so bad it actually became a parody of a pro-gay show, and in fact is making gays look horrible, but the pro-gay-rights folks who watch it can’t even tell.

Kurt the gay guy, turns out he’s never had sex, or even kissed anybody, so his whole “homosexual” thing is simply his attitude. And they made him an atheist, and had him mad at his friends for praying for his dying father, who then miraculously got better after he relented and let them pray (although that’s not how the show played his recovery).

Then he’s just been mean to everybody since, and now he’s got a gay friend and is shown dropping all his other friends, and mocking the fat girl for not having a date and being too clingy.

Oh, and the bully who kept attacking Kurt (which used to be “funny” for the show before the show decided it had to be serious about bullying, which is absurd since Sue is a bully, and nobody every gets expelled for violence like in real life)?

Well, that football player bully, turns out HE’S GAY!!. So the only person physically attacking the gay guy is a GAY GUY. Hate crime, indeed. And the gay football player KISSED him. Ha Ha. Now the gay football player is threatening to kill him if he outs him.

And they don’t realise that this is every stereotype about evil gay people. Mean, prissy, violent.
