That's So Gay TV - New inworld TV Network

[Vincent Brewster]

I am looking to assemble a team of talented people who are looking to get in  on the ground floor of Second Life's first LGBT television network, That's So Gay TV.   We are looking for machinimatographers, on-air personalities, actors/actresses, directors, sponsors, & etc.  Our goal at TSG TV is to create exciting, new, groundbreaking programming for a wonderfully diverse audience. We are currently developing two programs which we hope to release this summer.
If you would like to get involved with our network and think you have what it takes, please drop a note card to myself, 
Vincent Brewster or my assistant AlexNiteblade Resident and we will be pleased to set up a meeting with you asap.

Thank you for your time,
Vincent Brewster

This may be off-topic, but...

I think you should re-think the name of your network.

Yeah, I get that it's camp, and that you're co-opting the phrase to mean something other than "That's stupid," "lame," etc. You know... the way it's used by the average teenager.

Still... At the same time that we're trying to teach young people to not use it in that way, do you really think it's a good idea to launch a television network that goes by that name?

Just my two L$s.

Griffin makes an excellent point. I hope you'll consider a different name and wish you all the best in your venture.

[Vincent Brewster]

I appreciate your opinions on the name. I mean it's not 100% set in stone by any means but I just wanted to change the stigma on that term and make it positive.  We have been referring to it as TSG TV instead of the full name for a few days now. I guess we will see what happens. Thank you for your input and I hope you tune in when we launch. Please feel free to add me as a friend in-world if you would like to join our group to get info on upcoming programming.

I can appreciate that. And I can also appreciate that most if not all of your target audience will "get it." If you were to hold a focus group on the name, though... well, you now know my opinion. :smileyhappy:

Good luck in your undertaking, whichever name you ultimately settle on.

I have a better name for you to use... "Thats So Mankind" TV....or TSM. Then you would be a step above the rest...just saying.

I agree. I don't like the word being used like that at all by anyone of any age. Anyway, good luck with this show and hope  you come to a conclusion on a name change.

We have launched our website.  http://tsg-tv.moonfruit.com/ Please feel free to check it out.

The name is a ploy.. to draw attention... some good, some bad....but none the less.. rather childish to say the least.. how many adults do you know that use the term "gay" to discribe something they dislike?

[Griffin Ceawlin]

That sounds kinda cool. Like Big Brother meets The Apprentice? Or more like Top Chef?

P.S. AOL.com? :smileyvery-happy:

You'd be surprised.

[Vincent Brewster]

Yes exactly like Big Brother meets The Apprentice, and just because we're a "gay" network doesn't mean we're only going to have gay contestants on "Eye Am Watching You".
