53. "RE: Boy Meets Boy - Who is the stra..."
I must say I was sorely disappointed in the final episode. First of all, Brian was GREAT! Seems that James doesn't even trust his own intuition. In fact, he even said to Andra that he didn't think it was going to go anywhere with Wes. And he talked Brian up like he was going to pick him even at the final moment. What a mistake to have let him go!

And the way he confronted Franklin was caustic. Poor Franklin. Personally I feel that he used Franklin as a scapegoat for his anger with the producers. It seems from the little vignettes with each of the straight guys that their main intent was to help bridge the gap between gay and straight. Franklin even eloquently tried to explain himself even while James blasted him. I believe that the producers "lured" the straight guys into participating in the show by finding out who had gay sympathies and then playing on those same sympathies by misleading them into believing they were helping in this cause to "bridge the gap". The measly $25,000 they offered demonstrates this. I feel it was the well intentioned straight guys who were really used by the producers, not James.

For me, James demonstrated that there's a mistaken assumption out there that everyone is out to get the gay man. Blinded by this perception, even well intentioned people get overlooked or worse, villified like he did Franklin.

Franklin's beef is that because he appreciates certain things in life, people automatically assume he's gay. He wanted to dispel that notion. Personally, I think he did a good job of just being neutral.
