Have you ever fantasized about turning your real-life ups and downs into a miniseries? The wacky brainchild of out gay actor Leon Accord, the Old Dogs & New Tricks web series is now in its third season of whimsical comedic melodrama following the lives of four fifty-something Hollywood industry gays played by Accord, Jeffrey Patrick Olson, Curt Bonnem and David Pevsner. Revolving mainly around their lives as actors, agents, etc. the show includes a steady stream of amusing guest stars like this past week’s drop-in sub-lebrity Rutanya Alda (yes, she played the housekeeper Carol Ann in Mommie Dearest) and over-the-top actor Bruce L. Hart. And yes, parts of the plot involve these older dogs dating some younger tricks — but all in the most wholesome gay comedy context. Catch up on the first two episodes of this season now (last week’s season premiere co-stars comedian Mo Gaffney) and tune in for the special Thanksgiving episode this coming Wednesday. You can also find the first two seasons on Hulu or WolfeOnDemand.

This is a cute web series, and I can relate to these guys. (Being in my late 50’s myself.) But, I really just want to go on a date with David Pevsner! So, if he’s reading this, contact me!!! LOL

Ok so far I like this. Good humor without resorting to horrible stereotypes like over the top Queens.

Hey! There are all kinds of gays just like there are straights. My partner and I have been together for over 52 years but we have a mix of friends. Some are couples like us, some like young guys, etc. We have a friend who claims he just likes to bang the young guys and doesn’t want a relationship with someone his age, (or any age), because he doesn’t want to be a caregiver to his partner. Oh well, whatever works.

@Stache99: Thanks, Stache99. Yeah, we try to stay away from stereotypes. It helps to have the amazing cast we have! I don’t think they’d let me get away with writing that!

@GayEGO: 52 years! Wow, congrats GayEGO! My partner and I usually shock people when we tell them we’re approaching 23 years together. But 52, that’s really amazing!
