Jonathan Groff Expresses Sadness Over ‘Looking’ Cancellation, Hope That It Will Inspire More Gay TV
There’s not a lot of gay programming on TV. We wanted to create a show with gay men where they weren’t tragic figures or the comedic relief or sexually sensationalized but just multi-dimensional human beings. So, I feel sad that it was canceled but grateful for the time that we had. That was amazing to see that sort of outpouring of love and support for the show. I think that speaks to just the need and desire for more gay stories to be told. … Hopefully it maybe paved the way for other people to create [more] gay stories. Hopefully someday there won’t be just one gay show on the air but multiple shows. I remember being a kid and feeling like when somebody mentioned in a moment that they were gay or [saw someone gay] on TV, it was like an exciting sense of relief to see someone talk about being gay, so I try to do that as often as I can. It sort of goes back to that Harvey Milk thing of, ‘Tell your friends, tell everyone. I always try to wear that on my sleeve.”

See Darren Criss All Glittered Up As Hedwig
Following in the lofty stilettos of the great John Cameron Mitchell, the Tony Award-winning Neil Patrick Harris, the estimable Michael Patrick Hall and the highly-appreciable Andrew Rannells is no easy feat. Despite being perhaps a decade too young for the role, we’re still ridiculously thrilled that heartthrob Darren Criss is donning glitter makeup, a blond wig and fishnet hose to play that most challenging of contemporary musical theater transgender heroines, Hedwig in the hit Broadway revival of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. The former Glee star, already a vet of the Great White Way thanks to his appearance in How to Succeed In Business Without Really Trying, has made no secret of his excitement at being cast in the lead. Today, the 28-year-old stunner tweeted a first peek at what we can expect of his physical transformation. (We hope those luscious bushy eyebrows of his will grow back.)

Below you can watch Criss barely contain himself at the thought of returning to the stage. Break a leg, buddy!

“Gay rights and transvestite rights!” the bro says, describing the purpose of the march he’s witnessing on a Friday night in early April. He and another guy—both young, white, carefree, and drunk—are flailing around at the edge of the march, laughing and shouting.
