Battle of the Network Gays for May 29

by
Brian Juergens

Every Friday we pick the gays in television who have had the best week and leave it to you, the keepers of the flame, to decide who will be crowned Gay of the Week and enjoy their own fancy button over on the left. We'll announce the winner on Monday (Tuesday, in this case), and that champ will reign until a new set of challengers are introduced the following Friday to try to steal his title.

Last week you voted American Idol finalist Adam Lambert into his record-breaking seventh term in the throne, and he will now be retired to the VIP lounge where he will enjoy free shrimp cocktail and soft drinks until the end of the year, when he will be up for the prestigious Gay of the Year crown.

That leaves us with four new challengers! Check them out, and vote for your favorite!

This week's contenders:

David Hyde Pierce on The View (Why?)

Jake Nodar from Out of the Wild (Why?)

T.R. Knight from Grey's Anatomy (Why?)

George Takei on Larry King Live and Party Down (Why?)

Vote for your favorite by 8 AM EDT on Monday, June 1. And be sure to check back next week to see which gay our readers have carried to glory!

    Because he's an elder, he is uncompromising but completely accessible and because he's an icon and everytime he talks about his being gay or his marriage to his husband it makes me feel so proud.

    Now is a time when gays of all stripes should be rallying around each other and supporting those who have the courage to stand tall and speak up for themselves (and us).

    Nothing against the other guys but George is just THE MAN on this list this week.

    The man is taking on the elements to show that gay men don't just hang out at the club and drink martinis. The boy can camp, hunt, and sport a fine fox fur loin cloth.

    He can also give a straight woman a new hairdo while starving in the middle of the Alaskan wilderness. He's got my vote.

    What he said about his marriage and Prop 8 was perfect. Eloquent, to the point, just the right amount of anger underlying his stoic tone and trademark charm. And, best of all, he obviously made Sherri and Elizabeth uncomfortable, which I wish would happen more often. People like them need to be shamed into changing their bigoted beliefs.

    This must be the first battle of the network gays without Adam Lambert, Luke, Noah or NPH
