I knew it would happen, and yet I still feel so giddy! TVGuide.com has just reported that my favorite show, "Brothers & Sisters" has been renewed by ABC for a second season. By announcing the renewal so early, it is proof that ABC has a lot of faith in the show.
And why not? The ratings are solid against stiff Sunday night compeition and the show is so damned good with a stellar cast highlighted by Matthew Rhys' portrayal of Kevin, the openly gay attorney and a part of the spirited Walker clan. I look forward to following more of his romantic adventures and those of his siblings which include Kitty played by Calista Flockhart who is in a relationship with a U.S. senator played by the still-gorgeous Rob Lowe!

But most of all, it's all about Sally Field, the show's anchor and one of the best actresses of our time. As Nora Walker, Sally has the chance to play a complex and interesting woman and come Emmy time, I will be bitterly disappointed if she is not nominated for best actress in a drama series. She already has two Emmys and two Oscars but seeing as she is still at the top of her game, I think a third Emmy is deserved!
In further good news, ABC has also given an early renewal to the great "Ugly Betty," another fabulous gem of a show embraced by gays and straights alike.
