"Why do we need Logo," our commenters have asked, "when we already have VH1 and Bravo?"
Don't get me wrong, I've been a fan of Logo since their first minutes on the air, but we might as well add "Trio" to that list of gay-centric stations.
The cable netlet strutted its queer stuff recently in rebroadcasting "The Truth About Gay Animals,"a light-hearted documentary first aired in 2002 by BBC's Channel 4 and hosted by gay American comedian, Scott Capurro.
The program was made well before all of those famous queer penguins were discovered. But there is still ample evidence for hot homo lovin' in the animal kingdom.

Enjoy TRIO while you can. The "pop, culture, tv" network officially goes off the air on December 31. It was purchased by NBC in 2004, along with its sister networks USA and SciFi. Most of the talent behind programming and marketing TRIO (including its president, Lauren Zalaznick) were moved by NBC over to Bravo. You might notice some distinct similarities between the two channels.
The good news is, some of TRIO's programming will be available in streaming video on Bravo's website after January 1.

I was thrilled to see that Logo was one of the channels available while I was at the home of my brother-in-law which is located inside an army base. But, major R.I.P. to Trio. I've been on their bandwagon for eons. I doubt that Bravo will hit the same level even if it is with the same programming talent.
