AfterEllen.com’s Fall 2008 TV Preview

This fall on broadcast television, there will be four confirmed lesbian/bisexual characters on scripted shows (Callie and Erica on Grey’s Anatomy, Angela on Bones, Thirteen on House); two potentially lesbian/bi characters (Carrie Rivai on Knight Rider, an unnamed character on 90210); at least one lesbian on a reality show (an unnamed contestant on America’s Next Top Model); and four out lesbian/bi actors working on network shows (Saffron Burrows, Sara Gilbert, Cherry Jones, Kirsten Vangsness).

This marks the highest number of lesbian/bi characters and women on prime-time broadcast television since 2001-02, when there were seven characters on scripted shows. Since then, the number of lesbian/bi characters on broadcast TV has hovered between one and two, an inexcusably low number. Though there are still substantially fewer lesbian/bi women on television than gay men, the increase is a positive sign and hopefully indicates a trend for the future.

When cable television is considered, there are an additional three lesbian/bi characters on a scripted show (Spencer and Ashley on South of Nowhere, Paige Michalchuk on Degrassi); two queer women featured in their own reality shows (Tabatha Coffey, Margaret Cho); and one openly lesbian political commentator hosting her own prime-time program (Rachel Maddow). In addition, the lesbian/bi women on television are more diverse than ever before, with two of the four confirmed lesbian/bi characters played by women of color (Sara Ramirez, Michaela Conlin). A third, potentially lesbian/bi character, Carrie Rivai on Knight Rider, is also played by a woman of color, Sidney Tamiia Poitier. The growth in the number and scope of lesbian/bi representation on television should be applauded, but as always, there is still room for improvement.

During the Television Critics Association press tour in July, it became clear that television producers are open to the idea of LGBT characters on their shows, but actively including them continues to be the exception rather than the rule. A press conference for the new Sci Fi show Sanctuary, about a team of humans who study and protect alien/mystical creatures, exemplified the attitude that many producers expressed: There remains a tendency to view LGBT characters as social issues rather than a minority group deserving of equal representation on-screen.

When Michael Jensen, editor of AfterElton.com, asked whether Sanctuary “will finally go where Star Trek hasn’t dared to and actually include a gay character,” executive producers Sam Egan answered: “Sure. I would say we’re definitely open to it.”

Both Egan and executive producer Damian Kindler went on to equate being gay with being misunderstood or different. Kindler said: “I don’t mean to pander to it, but this show is about prejudice to a large extent, that there are creatures who are misunderstood and hunted and persecuted. … I don’t think you need to be so, you know, kind of on the nose and, say, ‘Here’s a gay character.’ You can actually explore a lot of those themes front and center. That’s what sci-fi allows you to do, explore very relevant social issues without saying, ‘And here comes this socially relevant issue.'”

Egan further elaborated: “When we talk about the abnormal world, we talk about the human experience – everybody feels different. Everybody feels they’re not a part of the mainstream in some way or another, and it’s the metaphor of xenophobia and fear of the unknown, and our discomfort with what we don’t know is so embedded in the themes of the show.”

In order for the number and quality of LGBT characters on television to improve, producers must begin to view LGBT characters primarily as people, not social issues. That appeared to be the main stumbling block for many non-LGBT producers, who seem to have difficulty conceptualizing a gay character as anything other than a billboard for gay issues.

However, it is likely that television producers – who are predominantly straight men – think differently about lesbian/bisexual characters than gay male characters. In fact, two of the bisexual female characters on broadcast TV this fall, Thirteen on House and Angela on Bones, have never been a “socially relevant issue” on their shows, which were both created by men. Of course, it does remain to be seen whether their characters will ever have genuine relationships with women rather than be bisexual in name only.

There is an increasing number of openly gay men producing television shows, but although having a gay man at the helm does lead to more gay male characters on a show, it does not necessarily lead to more lesbian characters. Two gay producers who have included lesbian story lines in shows that are currently on the air are Greg Berlanti (Brothers & Sisters, Eli Stone, Dirty Sexy Money) and Oliver Goldstick (Lipstick Jungle, Ugly Betty).

The final episode of Lipstick Jungle‘s first season, which aired last March, included a same-sex kiss between Victory (Lindsay Price) and a female client in a threesome scenario that wound up being more creepy than sexy. Goldstick explained to AfterEllen.com that he was not satisfied by the way the scene turned out, “because it was a first draft and we had to shoot during a writers’ strike, so it wasn’t fully realized. … We weren’t trying to play it for the joke.” He explained that “it was never the intention” to create an exploitative scene. “We never even got to hear Victory say why this all happened, what was going on in her – her vulnerability and why she was open to a couple. … We had only the material that was shot. We couldn’t re-shoot anything, you know – you can’t re-shoot if you’re not in production – and that was the issue.”

An episode of Greg Berlanti’s Eli Stone did include a lesbian story line last season, and when I asked if he had any plans to include lesbian/bi women in any of his series this season, he answered: “There’s always a chance. … That would be my hope. I mean I like to represent everybody on the show, so I have a firm belief in that.”

The one prime-time show in which a lesbian relationship is guaranteed to be seen this fall is on Shonda Rhimes’ drama Grey’s Anatomy, in which the romance between Callie Torres (Sara Ramirez) and Erica Hahn (Brooke Smith) will pick up after their kiss in the season finale last May. ABC/Randy Holmes

It is worth noting that Grey’s Anatomy, which features one of the most diverse casts on television, was created by a woman of color. It seems likely that the lack of lesbians and bisexual women in scripted shows is related to the lower number of women in executive positions on television. As more women become executive producers, we can hope that more lesbian/bisexual characters will be included on television programs in general.

What follows is a breakdown of programs including lesbian/bi characters or cast members, as well as shows of particular interest to lesbian/bi viewers. It is ordered according to network – beginning with the broadcast channels – and premiere date. Although any lesbian/bi characters or story lines are described, there are no major spoilers. (All times Eastern.) Often jokingly referred to as “Gay-B-C,” ABC certainly features more LGBT-inclusive scripted shows than any other network, but lesbian/bi characters are still outnumbered more than three to one by gay men. That said, ABC is also the only network to include two female main characters in a relationship with each other. Ugly Betty Premiere: Sept. 25, 8 p.m.

Despite being one of the most gay-inclusive and ethnically diverse shows on television, Ugly Betty does not have a lesbian/bisexual character, unless you count the lesbian-acting inmate, Yoga (Lorraine Toussaint), who escaped from prison with Claire Mead (Judith Light) last season. This season, however, Lindsay Lohan – who has been in a widely photographed relationship with out DJ Samantha Ronson – will reprise her role as one of Betty’s high school classmates. ABC/Karen Neal

Grey’s Anatomy Premiere: Sept. 25, 9 p.m.

Last season on the top-rated medical drama, the relationship between Dr. Callie Torres (Sara Ramirez) and Erica Hahn (Brooke Smith), which had previously been platonic, began to take the turn toward romance. ABC/Bob D’Amico

In the season finale, the two kissed passionately, setting off a storm of speculation about whether or not their relationship would continue into the new season, the series’ fifth. In July, series creator Shonda Rhimes confirmed that Callie and Erica’s relationship will indeed develop further this fall. “We have a really interesting, wonderful, funny way of laying out the story of Callie and Erica that I’m pretty excited about,” she said, “that I feel like is not necessarily your typical – if there can be a typical – your typical way of dealing with the story line.”

She assured AfterEllen.com that the two women will not fall into the trap of the lesbian pregnancy story line, but was tight-lipped about any further plot developments. Life on Mars Premiere: Oct. 9, 10 p.m.

ABC’s sole new scripted drama is a remake of the BBC series of the same name, about Det. Sam Tyler – a man living in present-day new York – who suddenly finds himself back in 1973. Uncertain of how he got there and feeling like an outcast, Sam befriends Annie Norris, one of the few women in the NYPD in 1973. Annie will be played by Gretchen Mol, who played Grace in Puccini for Beginners. Executive producer Josh Appelbaum said that in contrast to the British version of Annie, “Our Annie is going to be a little stronger, a little more connected to like the women’s lib movement, a little more outspoken.”

CBS’ fall lineup does not include any shows with regular lesbian/bi characters, although two shows, The New Adventures of Old Christine and new drama The Ex List both contain lesbian story lines. Two out actors, Sara Gilbert and Kirsten Vangsness, are also featured on CBS programs. The 17th season of Survivor, which has included out lesbian/bi contestants in the past, premieres on Sept. 18; as of press time, the show has not yet announced its cast for this season. The Big Bang Theory Premiere: Sept. 22, 8 p.m.

This season, out actor Sara Gilbert will become a regular cast member on the sitcom about two socially awkward but brilliant physicists. She’ll reprise her role as Leslie Winkle, the on-again, off-again love interest of physicist Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki). Greg Gayne/Warner Bros.

The New Adventures of Old Christine Premiere: Sept. 24, 8 p.m.

The Emmy Award-winning comedy about divorced mother Christine Campbell (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) launches its fourth season this year with a story line involving a lesbian wedding between Christine and her best friend, Barb (Wanda Sykes). Cliff Lipson/CBS “It turns out that Barb … is finally getting a divorce,” Louis-Dreyfus explained to AfterEllen.com, “which means she loses her citizenship, and so I’m gonna help her regain her citizenship.” This story line, Louis-Dreyfus said, is “one of our biggest ones” this season.

Criminal Minds Premiere: Sept. 24, 9 p.m.

The Ex List Premiere: Oct. 3, 9 p.m.

Based on an Israeli series, The Ex List stars Elizabeth Reaser (Puccini for Beginners) as Bella Bloom, a single, 30-something businesswoman who learns from a psychic that she has already dated her future husband. If she doesn’t find him within the next year, the psychic tells her, she’ll be alone forever, so Bella begins the process of reconnecting with every one of her exes. Cliff Lipson/CBS

In the Israeli version, the main character did have a female ex, but after they are reunited it only underscores why she is straight. The publicist for CBS’ version of The Ex List confirmed to AfterEllen.com last week that Bella Bloom will indeed have a female ex-lover, but they did not have any further information on that story line, nor did they know when it would air. CSI Premiere: Oct. 9, 9 p.m.

The ninth season of CSI debuts with an episode dealing with the murder of Warrick Brown (Gary Dourdan). Sara Sidle (Jorja Fox) returns in the season premiere to mourn his death and to help solve the crime. Later on this season, a new CSI, Bryce Adams – played by Lauren Lee Smith (The L Word), will join the Las Vegas team. Jeffrey Mayer/WireImage

She is described in CBS’ press materials as “a smart, flirtatious, and witty non-conformist who entered law enforcement to rebel against her judgmental psychiatrist father. She has always been fascinated by the perverse underbelly of society and cannot be shocked or intimidated.”

How I Met Your Mother Premiere: Sept. 19, 8:30 p.m.

Now in its fourth season, this sitcom stars Alyson Hannigan (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) as artist Lily Aldrin, friend to Ted Mosby, who narrates the story of “how I met your mother.” Now in only its third year as a television network, the CW has gone further than most networks to include LGBT characters in its programming. Two of its new shows, Stylista and Privileged, include gay men, while America’s Next Top Model includes both lesbian and transgender contestants. But the CW’s most anticipated fall show is 90210, and in July the series’ executive producer told AfterEllen.com that the show will include a gay/lesbian character. 90210 Premiere: Sept. 2, 8 p.m.

On first glance, 90210 uncannily resembles another teen-centered show, The N’s South of Nowhere. In 90210, the wholesome Wilson family – comprised of teens Annie and Dixon (her adopted, African-American brother), mom Debbie and dad Harry – moves from Kansas to Southern California, where Harry has taken a job as principal of West Beverly Hills High School. The show even features Maeve Quinlan (South of Nowhere, 3Way) as an overbearing stage mom.

All that’s left to make the comparison complete is a lesbian character, and executive producer Jeff Judah confirmed to AfterEllen.com that there will indeed be a lesbian/gay character within the first 12 episodes of the show, but he would not divulge the gender of the character. Art Streiber/The CW

“It is a part of the fabric of society,” Judah said, referring to LGBT people. “It is a part of the fabric of the world and that has changed since the original [series].”

When pressed for any further details, he answered: “I think it will be a story line, but we don’t want to do story lines where, oh, he’s a gambler and he never gambles again, or oh, I think I might be gay, and he’s never gay again. If you’re a gambler, you’re a gambler. If you’re gay, you’re gay. So it’s more like you weave it into the fabric of the show.”

The CW has been cagey about all aspects of the remake of the 1990s TV series, opting to not screen it for critics. Publicists for the show did not answer repeated questions from AfterEllen.com about whether this character would be male or female, stating only: “Unfortunately we don’t have any more info for you. Its still early in the season in terms of what episode we’re currently shooting.”

America‘s Next Top Model Premiere: Sept. 3, 8 p.m.

Tyra Banks’ hit reality show has featured lesbian and bisexual contestants regularly since its first season. Now in its 11th “cycle,” executive producer Ken Mok told AfterEllen.com in July that this season would include a lesbian contestant. “There is a contestant on the show this year who is a lesbian,” he said, “and expresses herself incredibly well and articulately, and is a great, positive influence on the show.” Jim De Yonker/The CW

Earlier this month, it was revealed that Top Model will include a transgender contestant this season named Isis in addition to the lesbian contestant. The show’s publicist told AfterEllen.com last week that the identity of the lesbian contestant will be revealed in the season premiere.

Although Fox – particularly its cable news network – is often accused of being conservative and anti-gay, this year the broadcast network is more LGBT-inclusive than ever before. The 2008 fall lineup includes two prime-time dramas with bisexual regular characters, and its new sitcom Do Not Disturb includes a gay male character. In addition, out actor Cherry Jones will star as the president in 24, which begins with a two-hour movie in November, and in early 2009 Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse will bring more lesbian-inclusive programming to the network. Bones Premiere: Sept. 3, 8 p.m.

Based on Kathy Reichs’ best-selling series of crime novels about forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel), Bones has performed reliably since its premiere in 2005. Last season, facial reconstruction artist Angela Montenegro (Michaela Conlin) was revealed to be bisexual when a private investigator mentioned “a girl named Roxy, whose heart you broke in second-year art school.” At Comic-Con in July, Conlin said that “Angela may have a relationship this season [with] someone by the name of Roxy.” Kwaku Alston/FOX

Over the course of the second season, Angela developed a relationship with Jack Hodgins, an entomologist. Their wedding was postponed because Angela was still married to a man in Fiji who refused to grant her a divorce. In the two-hour Season 4 premiere, Angela’s ex-husband arrives and still refuses to sign the divorce papers. His appearance is the catalyst for an important development in her life that may affect her potential relationship with the mysterious Roxy.

House Premiere: Sept. 16, 8 p.m.

This drama, about a cantankerous yet brilliant Dr. Gregory House, has been a ratings success for Fox since it premiered in 2004. Last season, Dr. Remy Hadley, aka Thirteen (Olivia Wilde), came out as bisexual. In July, Wilde told AfterEllen.com that she wasn’t sure if her character’s personal life would be a part of the show: “It’s not a soapy show, it’s not about our personal lives, but it is something that pisses off House. He likes things to be in black and white, and the idea that she could be sort of ambiguous and like men and women really irks him. It doesn’t fit into the way he thinks.” This season, the series’ fifth, picks up shortly after the revelation that Thirteen suffers from Huntington’s disease, which is ultimately fatal. In the season premiere, House cracks another bisexual joke, confirming yet again Thirteen’s sexual orientation. The episode deals thoughtfully with the Thirteen’s diagnosis, incorporating it into a case involving feminism and differing expectations for women in powerful careers. Whether or not Thirteen’s bisexuality will ever be confirmed with an on-screen relationship rather than House’s tiresome jokes is unknown.

24: Exile Premiere: Nov. 23, 8 p.m.

This two-hour prequel to the seventh season of the series, which begins in early 2009, is set in real time just like every other 24 episode. It also stars Cherry Jones as Allison Taylor, who is preparing for her inauguration as the first female president of the United States. Jones is in both 24: Exile and “Day 7” of the series, which is set four years after the end of Season 6. Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles Premiere: Sept. 8, 8 p.m.

The second season of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, starring Lena Headey (Imagine Me & You) and Summer Glau (Firefly), will include several new characters, including a love interest for John Connor named Riley (Leven Rambin) and a new villain played by Shirley Manson of Garbage. Frank Ockenfels/FOX

According to Terminator‘s executive producer, Josh Friedman, the theme of the second season is “evolution.” The series’ producers have also attempted to make the show less serialized than the first season, in order to attract new viewers. Look for our new interview with Lena Headey on Sept. 8.

Fringe Premiere: Sept. 9, 9 p.m.

This new science fiction drama from J. J. Abrams (Lost) also begins with a plane flight gone wrong, but this time the plane lands in Boston with all of its passengers dead. FBI Special Agent Olivia Dunham and her partner, Special Agent John Scott, are called in to investigate. The series follows in the footsteps of The X-Files, and Agent Dunham is played by Australian actor Anna Torv, who played lesbian character Alex in the BBC series Mistresses. George Holz/FOX

The Simpsons Premiere: Sept. 28, 8 p.m.

This season marks the 20th for this long-running animated series. Over the course of two decades, The Simpsons has included a smattering of gay story lines, including a 2005 episode in which Marge’s sister, Patty Bouvier, came out as a lesbian. This season’s guest-star voices include Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Shohreh Aghdashloo (24).

NBC has not had a regular lesbian/bisexual character in its prime-time lineup since Dr. Kerry Weaver left ER in January 2007, and this season may not be any different, depending on how the producers of Knight Rider view the character of FBI agent Carrie Rivai. She was suggested to be lesbian or bisexual during the February 2008 two-hour TV movie, but in July producers seemed unwilling to confirm that she is lesbian or bisexual, suggesting that her character might be de-gayed. Knight Rider Premiere: Sept. 24, 8 p.m.

This remake of the 1980s television series was launched as a two-hour movie last winter, and the character of FBI agent Carrie Rivai (Sidney Tamiia Poitier) was introduced with a scene that strongly implied that she is lesbian or bisexual. In July, however, executive producer Gary Scott Thompson, who was brought on board after the two-hour movie, would not confirm that Rivai is lesbian or bisexual. Executive producer Dave Bartis, who had worked on the movie, did state that his preference was for Rivai to be bisexual, and Poitier said, “Hopefully it’s something that they will keep.” Byron Cohen

Thompson, however, has been given “carte blanche” with the series, according to executive producer Doug Liman, “to not be limited” by the two-hour movie. Although the entire season had not yet been mapped out at the time he spoke with AfterEllen.com, it was clear that Rivai’s sexual orientation had not been addressed yet. On the other hand, he did say that he felt that KITT – the car – might be gay.

It remains to be seen whether a talking car can actually have a sexual orientation, and whether Rivai will suddenly become straight.

ER Premiere: Sept. 25, 10 p.m.

Angela Bassett will join the cast of ER for its 15th and final season, playing the new chief of the E.R. Former E.R. chief Dr. Kerry Weaver (Laura Innes), who came out during Season 7, may return to the series in a guest appearance. “I think it’ll probably happen,” said executive producer John Wells in July.

My Own Worst Enemy Premiere: Oct. 13, 10 p.m.

This new series is a modern-day twist on Jekyll and Hyde, with Christian Slater playing a mild-mannered family man who doesn’t know he’s a deadly government operative as well. Out actor Saffron Burrows plays his psychiatrist, who knows about both of his personalities. Chuck Premiere: Sept. 29, 8 p.m.

In Season 2 of Josh Schwartz’s (The O.C., Gossip Girl) comedic thriller about a guy who has the top secret contents of a government computer downloaded into his brain, Jordana Brewster (D.E.B.S.) joins the cast for several episodes as the title character’s college sweetheart. “She broke his heart, she dumped him when he was in college,” Schwartz said. “He spiraled out of the life that he was supposed to have and now he works [at the Buy More], and now he’s always dreamt about the opportunity to face her again and get her back. … She’s brilliant, and she’s beautiful, and she’s cool.”

Life Premiere: Oct. 10, 10 p.m.; Previews Sept. 29 and Oct. 6, 10 p.m.

Sarah Shahi (The L Word) stars as Det. Dani Reese, partner to Det. Charlie Crews (Damian Lewis), in this crime drama about a cop (Crews) who gained a Buddhist perspective while serving time for a crime he didn’t commit. In a somewhat confusing effort to drive new viewers to the show, Season 2 will “preview” two episodes after Heroes on Sept. 29 and Oct. 6 before moving to its regular time slot of Friday nights on Oct. 10. 30 Rock Premiere: Oct. 30, 9 p.m.

Very little information about the third season of the award-winning yet ratings-challenged comedy is available, other than the fact that 22 episodes have been ordered. Tina Fey, of course, will reprise her role as the quirky yet relatable Liz Lemon. Degrassi: The Next Generation Premiere: Oct. 10, 8 p.m. ET

The eighth season of the Canadian teen drama includes bisexual character Paige Michalchuk (Lauren Collins), whose relationship with Alex Nunez (Deanna Casaluce) ended controversially in Season 7. In an interview with AfterEllen.com in April 2008, Collins said: “There’s a really great story line coming up for Paige. Definitely worth it to keep watching! She may be in for more than she can handle.”

True Blood (HBO) Premiere: Sept. 7, 9 p.m.

Based on the novel series Southern Vampire by Charlaine Harris and executive produced by Alan Ball (Six Feet Under), HBO’s newest series is sexy, slick and dripping with gay subtext. It is set in a world in which vampires have “come out of the coffin” because of the invention of a synthetic blood (True Blood) that perfectly mimics human blood. Vampires now have their own civil rights-type activists and are demanding the passage of a vampire rights’ bill.

The story is told from the perspective of small-town Louisiana waitress Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), who is telepathic and fascinated by vampires. She meets the seductive, 173-year-old Bill Compton and is quickly drawn to him. In later episodes during this first season, a possibly lesbian/bisexual recurring character emerges, but her story line is not yet clear. The series’ bold sexuality, however, suggests that lesbianism wouldn’t be out of the ordinary.

South of Nowhere (The N) Premiere: Oct. 3

The show that led to Spashley and its legion of fans will reportedly return for its final eight episodes – known as Season 3B – on Oct. 3 in the United States, although the episodes have already aired in France. (No major spoilers for Season 3B follow, but AfterEllen.com will offer further analysis of the groundbreaking series once it has aired in the U.S.) When we last saw Spencer and Ashley in Episode 3.8, “Gay Pride,” Spencer (Gabrielle Christian) had attended a Gay Pride parade with her parents, including mom Paula Carlin (Maeve Quinlan), who had a lot of difficulty accepting her daughter’s sexual orientation. The mother-daughter reconciliation was made even sweeter by the fact that Ashley (Mandy Musgrave) accompanied Paula to Pride, leading Spencer to later show up at Ashley’s door wearing nothing but a raincoat. Episode 3.9 picks up the morning after, with Spencer dealing with the aftermath of her late-night visit with both Ashley and her mother.

Rick and Steve: The Happiest Gay Couple in All the World (Logo) Premiere: Nov. 11, 10 p.m.

Season 2 of Logo’s (AfterEllen.com’s parent company) animated comedy series features the vocal talents of Jill Bennett (3Way, Dante’s Cove) in the fourth episode, “Death of a Lesbian Bed.” She voices General B. Traytus and the Lead Singer of the Lesbohemians. The Cho Show (VH1) Premiere: Aug. 21, 11 p.m.

Billed as a “reality sitcom,” The Cho Show follows queer comedian Margaret Cho through seven half-hour episodes along with her parents, her assistant and her gays.

Tabatha’s Salon Takeover (Bravo) Premiere: Aug. 21, 10 p.m.

In this eight-episode reality series, openly lesbian hairdresser and businesswoman Tabatha Coffey ( Shear Genius ) makes over troubled salons.

Lesbian Sex and Sexuality (here!) Premiere: Sept. 5

The second season of here! TV’s documentary series from Katherine Linton continues to delve into the sexual life of lesbians, starting off with episodes about roller derby, burlesque, S/M and lesbian fashion. Interviews with Kate Clinton, Guinevere Turner, Michelle Wolff and others provide celebrity commentary on intimate subjects, but the best part of this series continues to be its focus on ordinary lesbians who celebrate queer sexuality on their own.

The Rachel Maddow Show (MSNBC) Premiere: Sept. 8, 9 p.m.

Out political commentator Rachel Maddow, who has been a frequent fixture on MSNBC this year, will launch her own one-hour prime-time news program next month. According to the press release, “The Rachel Maddow Show will feature Maddow’s take on the biggest stories of the day, political and otherwise, including lively debate with guests from all sides of the issues, in-depth analysis and stories no other shows in cable news will cover.”
