Attention fellow Fag Hags and their gay besties! Sundance Channel‘s “Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys” will have a second season! Haven’t heard of it? Then, you must watch what regulars refer to GWBWLB on the Sundance Channel. The show concept is brilliant, but I don’t think it got enough publicity since it wasn’t on a more popular network. Read the summary below:
GIRLS WHO LIKE BOYS WHO LIKE BOYS is Sundance Channel’s new original series celebrating the special relationship between straight women and gay men. Experience the ins and out of friendship with four dynamic and dramatic New York duos facing life’s biggest milestones, including marriage, divorce, coming out, getting sober, and starting a family. (source: Sundance Channel)
According to Broadcasting & Cable, “Barnett tells B&C that the new season will not be based in New York again, and that she hopes to bring the second season order up to 10 episodes.”
The entire first season is available for download on iTunes and there is a trailer and bonus clips on the show’s website- HERE. If you’re lucky, you’ll find a series of reruns on the Sundance Channel (it originally began airing in December 2010).
There were auditions for season 2 held in Denver so it may will be an entirely new cast and new city. I’ll certainly miss the original New York cast: Sarah Rose, Joel Derfner, Crystal McCrary, Nathan Hale Williams, Rosebud Baker, Sahil Farooqi, Elisa Casas, and David Monk.

In the freeze frame before the video starts above is GBFs (Gay Best Friends) Sarah Rose and Joel Derfner who were part of season 1’s cast. I recently interviewed them and will be posting it online real soon! Meanwhile check out their blog www.sarahandjoellikeboys.com.

I must admit I never watched the show. I read about it once. I am going to have to watch the first season. I’ll let you know what I think about it afterwards.
I can’t wait to read your interview.
Sharon´s last blog post ..Empowering Yourself to Overcome Hills in Heels
Hi Sharon- The show in concept was cute but it did drag a bit until you got about halfway into the season. So there wasn’t any crazed out Jersey Shore type insanity, although I have a feeling they’re going to get a little more “Hollywood” in the second season. Thanks for leaving a comment!
