=== GALE HAROLD ===
"Vanished
Series Premiere Monday, August 21 9/8c...
SARA (Joanne Kelly, 'Whiskey Echo') is the beautiful young wife of
prominent Georgia Senator JEFFREY COLLINS (John Allen Nelson, '24'),
and she has gone missing. Through the eyes of Senior FBI Agent GRAHAM
KELTON (Gale Harold, 'Queer as Folk,' 'Martha Behind Bars'), ambitious
reporter JUDY NASH (Rebecca Gayheart, 'Nip/Tuck,' 'Harvard Man') and
the distraught members of the Collins family, viewers will journey

Created by Josh Berman ('CSI: Crime Scene Investigation') and directed

VANISHED combines the investigative twists and turns of 'CSI,' the

=== ROBERT GANT ===
"From Robert Gant: Save Me will be filming this year and will feature
Chad Allen as a man who goes to this 'rehab' center in Texas to be
'cured' of his gayness. I will portray a journalist who covers the
story and Judith Light will be playing the woman who runs the
facility. We have a number of projects in the works as we speak, but
we are all very excited about Save Me. Hopefully we can reach a lot of
people who have, in some way, been affected by the myths surrounding
this particular type of 'therapy.' It is an exciting time for everyone
connected with this project. Judith is absolutely wonderful to work
with."

=== PETER PAIGE ===
"Say Uncle...
Portland-based artist Paul Johnson (Peter Paige), who happens to be
gay, returns from his telemarketing job one day to some very
distressing news - his closest friends, the Fabers, are moving to
Japan, and they're taking Paul's two year-old godson Morgan with them.
Shifting into serious denial mode, Paul misses their final departure,
but ultimately faces the truth that the Fabers are gone and aren't
coming back.
When Paul's friend Russell (Anthony Clark) convinces him to 'get back
out in the world,' Paul ventures out to play with some kids at the
local playground. Inspired to find creative ways to maintain the
youthful exuberance he feels, Paul begins to explore every opportunity
that might afford him contact with children: working in a toy store,
babysitting, advertising himself as a nanny (aka 'manny'), even
considering adoption.
Watching Paul's natural, playful chemistry with the children, one
local mother, Maggie Butler (Kathy Najimy), wonders who this amazing
'Super Dad' is. Upon further investigation, she determines that maybe
Paul is up to no good and decides to rally her neighbors to take
action."

Thanks for the project! I love researching questions about actors. If
my life had gone a little bit differently, I might be out in Hollywood
myself, waiting tables while hoping for my big break.
