Here's an link to an superbly written article, from the Washington Post:

As an sexual assault survivor, I know what it feels like to be silenced, not believed, doubted. I hope the docuseries proves useful in helping others to understand how terrible it is for those of us who know first hand how this feels.

Thanks for the heads up, homoe.

Love Connection hosted by Andy Cohen Thursday nights Fox network

I taped and watched this basically to see how it compares to the very classy "First Date" produced by Ellen!

I am only expressing MY opinion here":

They've made a few changes to the original Love Connection hosted by Chuck Woolery. Scoring someone's attractiveness by first impressions, and offering a 10 thousand dollar "prize" if the contestant discards their choice for the second date and goes with the audiences pick.

This first episode went fairly well, but I can see this soon deteriorating into a real bloodbath purely for either shock value or ratings! By comparison, it falters greatly IMHO

I liked Love Connection but I liked the original too. I do enjoy First Dates more because it has some whimsy to it. I saw Beat Shazam and even though I like Jamie Foxx, I don't think it will last. It is highly impressive how fast some of the folks could pick out a song, though.

PBS is re-ruining this again (2014) and it's a look back of the LGBT-rights movement in Florida's Miami-Dade County

It focuses on when gay rights activists and conservative singer Anita Bryant fought over the passage of the human rights ordinance, which prevented discrimination based on sexual orientation. The documentary shows how it galvanized the gay rights movement in Florida and beyond. Bryant lead a hateful campaign to get it appealed and won! It took more than 20 years for the law to get passed again.

Real Boy

Real Boy is an story of a family in transition. As 19-year-old Bennett Wallace navigates early sobriety, late adolescence, and the evolution of his gender identity, his mother makes her own transformation from resistance to acceptance of her trans son. Along the way, both mother and son find support in their communities, reminding us that families are not only given, but chosen.

This aired last night but hopefully they'll run it again during the summer in re-runs.
