Here's a new show on the horizon, from the folks who brought us Big Brother.

Lifetime set for a 'Gay' time with dating show

By Nellie Andreeva

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Women's cable channel Lifetime has ordered 18 episodes of a dating game show called "Gay, Straight or Taken?"

The half-hour series will premiere at 8 p.m. Jan. 8 with two back-to-back episodes.

Every episode of "Gay" features a single woman meeting three men: one who is in a relationship, one who is gay and one who is single. After interacting with each man in group and one-on-one settings, the woman must determine who is the single straight guy among the three. If she chooses correctly, she wins an exotic trip for two with him. If she chooses wrong, the man she selects wins the trip with his significant other.

The series comes from the U.S. arm of Dutch producer Endemol, the company behind "Big Brother," "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," "Deal or No Deal" and "1 vs. 100."

LOL, that's funny. I wonder, though, is it only women choosing men? Will there be men trying to find the gay/straight woman in the group?

that is going to be a tough show. many women are attracted to gay men I would suggest.

oh well, at least it is better than that Other show....remmeber on the ranch, with One woman who would evict guys based on whether she thought they were straight or gay?

It was the most uncomfortable show i've ever watched.

THIS show may be okay though, because the straight, gay and 'taken' guy will all be choosing to act 'a part'.

So, if she correctly picks the straight guy she HAS to go on the trip with him? What if the straight guy is a jerk?

I think she should be able to pick who she wants to go with. Maybe she'd rather pick the gay guy, he might be more fun.
