Straightenout the mess that the production comany "Once Upon A Shitass" (Stanley Brooks) started by hoarding all talents residuals and not paying the talent. Why? This is "theft of talent" and I want every guild, SAG/AFTRA, etc. to be on him tomorrow like a duck on a Junebug to get these actors their hard earned $$$. People lost health insurance. Someone lost their home!!!! Get this resolved and shop the show to SHOWTIME where Del wrote "Queer As Folk" for 3 years or another network. LOGO is at best behaving like a wishy-wahy network that jsut helped throw away the BEST SHOW they have ever had or EVER WILL hope to HAVE. The distributor is still selling "Sordid" to overseas markets so someone knows there is $$$ to be made....EMAIL LOGO and VIACOM (seperately) at logoonline.com and viacom.com and let them HAVE IT! MAIL at least 10 postal cards to Logo/Viacom 1515 Broadway NYC, NY10036 Let your voice be heard! Call 212-258-6000. GET BUSY! RECRUIT YOUR FRIENDS TO EMAIL AND SEND POST CARDS!! NOW IS THE TIME!!!!! Without “Sordid Lives:The Series” who needs LOGO?

I guess I can't argue with you if you heard from Del himself, but this is horrible news. It is such a great show, with real talent (award-winning and famous ones even), not to mention hot boys...not very often that straight up gay entertainment has this kind of pedigree. If you find out what we can do to protest or something, let us know!! Or I guess I don't really need Logo anymore (sigh....)! I sure hope this isn’t true!!
