DL Chronicles Series Renewed for 2nd Season on Here TV!
This is great news: here! TV has just announced that it will bring back the sexy anthology series "The DL Chronicles" for a second season. It will premiere on the network in late 2008 and feature 5 new episodes.
The series, recently nominated for a GLAAD Media Award in the category of “Outstanding Television Movie or Mini-Series,” is the first television show to center on the “DL” phenomenon in the gay community. The DL (short for “down-low”) refers to straight men of color who live their everyday lives as heterosexuals, often married to women, but engage in discreet gay sex and gay relationships on the periphery.
The show was created by Quincy Lenear and Deondray Gossett. The network describes the series this way: "...Not only sexy and provocative, but also offers a socially-conscious insight into the lines between sexuality and perceived socially acceptable behavior within the African-American community. It provides an unapologetic view of intimacy between men of color and explores these scintillating stories with honesty and integrity.
"
Among the stories told in the upcoming season are that which involve a high school student’s newfound gay relationship and its effects on his homophobic father, a reverend who questions his sexual identity and religious beliefs upon meeting a handsome stranger, and an interracial love story about two guys from different sides of the tracks.
