Coming soon to Logo (clockwise, from top left): Ru takes you to school, Verdi gets big, Kept boys play house, and some florists are gonna get dirty.

This morning a Logo press release went out announcing some new shows for 2010. Some you know about already: Season 2 of RuPaul's Drag Race; The upcoming reality fashion-stylist-madness which is The Robert Verdi Show Starring Robert Verdi; and the show I like to call "Real Houseboys of Eighth Avenue," Kept (which is a reality show about kept boys and their sugar daddies in NYC). But holy crap there's more gayness coming...

The network also announced that RuPaul's Drag Race will give birth to a spin-off, RuPaul's Drag U, wherein "RuPaul and other drag queens apply fairy godmother dust to the looks and lives of people in need of a little assistance." I hope it's as good as the original season of Charm School with Mo'Nique. That was TV gold.

And then, as if all of that weren't gay enough for you, there's The Arrangement which, although it sounds like the name of the next weak Sandra Bullock romantic comedy, is actually "an original series that follows the surprisingly intense action in a high-end floral design competition." Surprisingly intense? As if. I'd only expect a bunch of queened-out florists competing over orchids and hydrangeas to be cutthroat and venomous. How did this one not end up on Bravo?

Does all of this sound gay enough for you? Too gay? Are you wondering like, er... What about all the non-queeny gays who are like, truckers or EMTs or oil-rig workers? There's network for those folks, too. It's called Discovery.

I'm hoping "Kept" is gonna look something like this. But trashier? And with more bedazzling going on.

But I have high hopes for the Robert Verdi show. From what I've seen so far, it's totally fun. And Verdi and his staff are sort of reality comedy geniuses. It's a nice surprise. And as for Kept... I'm grossed out, intrigued and in love with it all at once. Let's just hope it lives up to all over collective best and worst expectations.

And here's one more special image, just cuz... Whoever she is, she deserves her own show, too.
