What's all this decent network telly business?

Dear Southland,


You made Bull Randleman gay?!!

FOR THE MOTHERFUCKING WIN! *high five*

Seriously, when I saw Bull in the bar, in his tight black tee shirt (nice guns, Michael Cudlitz!), drinking that piss, err Corona, and the second I saw Crusing!Man next to him, something pinged about what I'd heard about the series and my brain was like, "Oh, sweet baby Jesus, Bull is gay. They went there. WOW."

Show, please do not be leaving like Kings, which was supposed to be in your time slot, but you are clearly for the investment.

Also, Ryan, err, Ben, um, so Ben Mckenzie, is it just weird to share your first name with your character? Oh, who cares, you haven't aged a fucking day, and that line about Ferrari guy getting your lawyer dad to get him off? PRICELESS! *high five Southland writers*

Double high five for Ben taking a Black Studies class!

Triple high five for Regina King (227 in the house!)!

And some other stuff happened, but I couldn't tell you what, because Bull, Ben and Regina for the WIN! Real acting hooray! *\o/*

I swear I am not thinking of the story where Ryan and Seth had a horrible messy break up -- Seth always was a selfish wanker -- and so Ryan left and joined the LAPD and then he gets partnered with Bull and there is stupidly hot, filthy sex in the back of the squad car.

Okay, I lied. I NEED THAT STORY.

<3,
X

Seriously, people, watch this show!

Oh man, I FREAKED OUT when I saw that BULL WAS THE GAY COP. I remembered reading that there was going to be a gay cop, but there was a moment early on in the pilot when Shawn Hatosy was on the phone fighting with his wife and she was talking about how they never had sex anymore, and it cut to him looking at his HOT ASS PARTNER and my brain went 'OH BOY, I AM TOTALLY DOWN WITH THIS', so at first, I felt a little bit disappointed?

Is it my imagination or did they say there might be more than one gay/bi character in the series. I swear I'm not making that up, but you know how things blend together after a while.
