'Come for the validation, stay for the cookies.'

That's the motto of the West Lahunga Retropolitain Community Church, a fictional religious institution from the Logo network's Rick & Steve: the Happiest Gay Couple in All the World. We watched a couple of episodes tonight. YKWIA had found it on the cable company's On Demand service. It was great. It was hilarious, yet harmful, sort of like Morel Orel. Like it, Rick & Steve is a stop-motion programme. It's made in Toronto. Think multicultural gay Lego (the company actually sued them) people, all in a town that's mostly gay.

It's not for everyone, but here's the one embeddable clip I could find...the 'Sperm Song'.



The show airs Tuesdays at 10 pm on Logo. Unfortunately we don't get this channel per se on our system, but the episodes are run on the On Demand service a short time afterwards. So, check it out if you can.
