Pop culture with a hangover

Was that a Ryan Seacrest gay joke on “Here Come the Newlyweds”?

Now, I am not a fan of the new ABC reality show Here Come the Newlyweds by any means. It’s just a lame amped up version of The Newlywed Game, and the overall tone is kind of pain-inducing. But on tonight’s episode, I was surpised to hear some rather ribald humor coming from the host, Pat Bullard. This included a rather offensive gay joke about Ryan Seacrest. I’m surprised that such a mainstream, family-oriented show would go there. During a game of “identify your husband’s ass out of all the men’s asses in the group,” the host was heard to utter the following:

“This is like a bachelor party at Ryan Seacrest’s house.”

Whoa! Oh no they didn’t! Anyway.

I preferred a comment that came a few moments later: “Here’s our final set of…ass.”
