For the first time in decades - since The Newlywed Game bounced onto the boob tube with little fanfare or much ado - a "gay couple" will be competing for prizes on the popular comedy bill-of-fare.
The contestants are celebrity newlyweds, too!
George Takei - a regular character on Star Trek for years - got hitched to his long-time mate a few months ago when gay-unions became legal in California for about a second or two.
There was quite an uproar in the press, also, when Takei opted not to invite William Shatner (co-star on the popular SciFi series) to the much-anticipated union of the star-crossed lovers at a high-profile celebration in Tinsel Town.
Why, pray tell?
Some hinted that egotistical Shatner may have tried to manipulate the moment to steal the limelight!
Oh well, Shatner always has priceline, that rip-off internet booking agency, to keep him busy.
Especially when the lawsuits rev up in the near future.
As to the lovebirds?
I'll be tuning in, how 'bout you?
