This week's showdown will be both artistic and relevant!
Following GLAAD’s review, it was found that of the 126 regular characters on CBS, there was only one gay character in the form of Brad (Orlando Jones) on Rules of Engagement. As a result, the network earned a "fail" rating on its representation of minority sexuality groups.
I first noticed Orlando in the 7-Up commercials that had me rolling with laughter. His earlier work on the big screen wasn't impressive to me. I rated him a 4 out of 10 up to when he appeared on Ghost Wisperer. I decided he needed a boost on this one. If Jones would have shed a tear instead of getting misty-eyed, I would rate him even higher, but it didn't happen. Maybe he will become more believeable in his roles as time goes on, but for now I am just a mild fan. He isn't the worst out there to see.
