Logo--the channel that targets lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender viewers--is looking for gay life in small-town America.
The MTV Networks outlet has ordered six episodes of a series tentatively titled US of ANT, in which comedian Ant travels across the United States investigating how members of the gay community are getting along. The show is set to premiere in the summer.
As to how the towns will be chosen, Ant said he's "going to throw a dart at a map of America and wherever it lands, I'm going to seek out the gays in that town. I hope my bad aim and lazy eye don't keep me out of the South."
Ant is the host of the VH1 reality series Celebrity Fit Club and a talent judge on WB Network's Steve Harvey's Big Time. The actor-comedian also spent four seasons on WB Network's Unhappily Ever After and appeared on all three seasons of NBC's Last Comic Standing.
Hey, dont be so discriminative. I'll bet you guys didn't whinge about the Playboy channel going on, or the women's channel or even the kids channels that are on all the time. So why shouldn't gay people have their own channel?<br />
