They say you learn something every day - I never knew that these blokes were (suspects so as to speak) gay. Thanks for sharing this info

Happy Pride Day! I'm hoping Neil Patrick Harris will come back to Broadway someday. He's got a beautiful voice. I love him on the Assassins cast recording. And I'm really looking forward to the Kevin/Scotty storyline in next season's Brothers and Sisters.

I agree with JC, thanks for adding this info because I would have never known this either!

I think that only some of the guys are gay and that the rest only portray gay characters on their show. Unless I'm mistaken. But either way, the info is great!
