After a meeting with our board of directors and new Publisher and International playboy Baron Von Ascot, it has been determined that suspension of disbelief dot net will broaden its focus.
Cataloging beatnik jokes and providing up-to-the-second information about what Stephen Johnson did this weekend are still of importance, but the main editorial focus of the site will be information, gossip, fan art, "slash" fiction and boosterism of UPN's new television program: Sex, Love and Secrets.
Finally, a telelvision program about my life.
Sex, Love and Secrets (or SLS to insiders) is "Set in the L.A. hipster haven of Silver Lake" and explores "the often complex relationships of a tight-knit group of friends finding out who they are and what they want in life."
I love hipster havens, so I lived in Silver Lake for over 2 years, residing in the home of Jet-Set socialite Theresa Ramirez and dashing avante-garde journalist Jeremy Rosenberg. Like everyone in our neighborhood, we spent most of our time finding out who we were and what we want out of life, exploring our often complex relationship and doing laundry and stuff.
Now that I am an old married guy, I live in Echo Park, but I am so close to Silver Lake, I can see the street sign that demarks the border between EP and SL from my kitchen window.
There's no physical wall there, but I tell you, the barrier between the two communities is as solid as the Berlin Wall in the early 60s.
On my side: Working class Hispanic familes, new-to-the-neighborhood yuppies and under-employed artistic types; on the other side: Working class Hispanic Families, less-new-to-the-neighborhood yuppies and under-employed artistic types WHO HAVE A TV SHOW SET IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD.
Anyway, SLS, which may or may not have ties to Patty Hearst's reolutionary fun-squad the SLA, is bound to be the most successful television program in the history of the planet, and I'm not just saying that because I think it's true. I'm saying it because I think it's a lie.
SLS features soon-to-be megastars like Denise Richards and Eric Balfour. It premiers September 27th at 9 P.M. on UPN.
