Gay Girls Who Game: "Grand Theft Auto 4"

There's only one game worth talking about this week and it's Grand Theft Auto IV. Tracy and Angela give you the full rundown of GTA IV, from graphics and sound, right through to lesbian viewpoint and politics.

They reveal a lot of surprising feelings about this game and they consider its greater social message along with it's portrayal of women. If you think your mind is already made up about GTA IV, you have to see this vlog — it will make you rethink the whole GTA IV debate.

Come With Me If You Want To Live: "Work Out" 3.3

Jenn's best friend Troy joins her and Dee in reviewing this episode of Work Out, which features more lesbian drama on a boat.

Jenn and Dee also answer viewer questions, including whether they liked high school, if they're out to their parents, their religious views, and what they think of labels.

And in case you forgot that Jenn and Dee (and Troy) are band geeks at heart, they do some marching band trash-talk at the end of the episode, and Jenn and Dee get into a fight over whose musical instrument is more important.

SHE MADE ME WATCH THIS! Women's Sports Movies

This episode of SMMWT! is all about women in sports movies! The ones we like, anyway...

Not included? The recent soccer movie Gracie (kinda disappointing), Million Dollar Baby (too depressing), and lots of ice skating movies (whole 'nother genre). Plus probably whatever movie is your favorite, which I'm sure you'll let us know in the comments.

You'll also learn how Lori met one of her tennis idols, why you'll never catch her on a surf board, and what movie the Chariots of Fire theme song makes me think of (hint: Wally World!).

The Gay Agenda: Gay marriage and the Obama/Wright fall-out

The Gay Agenda with VisibleVote08.com's Jennifer Vanasco and John Polly finally returns (Jay was out of town traveling for a bit), and today’s topics are the big ones of the week: The Obama/Wright fall-out, and hashing out last Sunday’s NY Times Magazine cover story on gay marriage. (Now, if only we could get Rev. Wright to preside at some gay weddings, all of these stories could come full circle, right?)

She Got Me Pregnant: Episode 26

Dana of Mombian.com discusses two new memoirs about the journey to single motherhood, including the cynical and funny My Miserable, Lonely, Lesbian Pregnancy. She vlogs without Helen this week, but instead has a very special guest: her mom.

Hear what a grandmother has to say about the differences between being a parent and being a grandparent, what she first thought when she found out her lesbian daughter was becoming a mother, and how she talks about their family with friends and colleagues.

PilotWatch '08: Bad Mothers, Good Behavior, and Alyssa Milano

It's casting season for the broadcast networks' fall pilots, and with every casting announcement we get a peek into what kinds of shows the networks are looking at for the fall. The verdict? Eh. I'm underwhelmed. Especially when it comes to the roles for women.

But you can draw you own conclusions — here are some of the pilots in the works and the actresses attached, with my wildly premature speculation thrown in as a bonus. Feel free to add your own observations in the comments.

BAD MOTHER'S HANDBOOK (ABC) - Alicia Silverstone (Miss Match), Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development)

Plot
A comedy about a 32-year-old woman (Silverstone) who is too busy taking care of her 16-year-old daughter (Shawkat) and 48-year-old mother.

Snap Judgment
Would they ever make a comedy called Bad Father's Handbook? No.

Does Alicia Silverstone have a bad track record on TV? Yes.

Will I check this out anyway? Maeby.

GOOD BEHAVIOR (ABC) - Mae Whitman (Arrested Development)

Plot
A dramedy based on the New Zealand show Outrageous Fortune that centers on the matriarch of a family of criminals who straightens out her brood after her husband goes to jail for five years. Whitman plays Roxy, the family's smart teen daughter who has been blackmailing her principal and selling hall passes and permission slips.

Snap Judgment
Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas is writing this show, so I'm semi-optimistic about it. And at least Whitman's character is described as "smart." (Really? Her?)

KINGS (NBC) - Allison Miller

Plot
The story of King David, centering on David Shepherd (Christopher Egan), a pure-hearted young warrior who joins the court of the charismatic and authoritative King Silas (Ian McShane). Miller plays Michelle Benjamin, Silas' daughter who falls in love with David.

Snap Judgment
Another show revolving around a male hero in which virtually all the women's storylines revolve around being someone's love interest? Excellent!

Because we don't see enough of that on The Tudors. Or Mad Men. Or Nip/Tuck. Or in every historical epic or action movie in the theaters.
