 Boy Meets Boy | PopMatters Television Review
What James doesn't know is that some of these bachelors aren't exactly "eligible," that is, some are straight (the show's producers are being coy on exactly how many, hinting that the number is more than one and maybe as many as half).
After meeting his potential suitors in the premiere episode, James marvels at the "amazing cross-section." But these contenders are all Abercrombie & Fitch types, each sporting the same sleeveless t-shirts wardrobes and heavily gelled hairdos.
The effort to broaden its presumably "gay" appeal may draw straight viewers (apparently, straight women are especially drawn, and not only for James' outspoken best friend and confidant, Andra).

My inspiration for Boy Meets Hero comes from all the super hero comic book characters who have a separate and secret romance in their normal lives.

 Tuesday
Each of its two new gay-themed shows, “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” (which debuted earlier this month to record ratings for the network and is now repeating in condensed form on NBC) and “Boy Meets Boy” (premiering tonight at 9 p.m.), make straight men central to the proceedings.
But with “Boy Meets Boy,” the straight men are there to keep the show from being just a gay version of “The Bachelor.” They’re the nasty twist, the Joe-Millionaire-is-really-dirt-poor hook that makes the show vastly more entertaining while throwing its arms open to straight viewers.
The premise, if you haven’t heard by now, is this: James, a 32-year-old benefits administrator at a law firm — and, more to the point, a total hottie — must choose from a group of 15 suitors.

As part of Boy Meets Boy's twist, Tiner's sexuality on the series was ambiguous--he could have been one of several heterosexual contestants--but after he was rejected by the leading man, James, Tiner's orientation was revealed.
The former Navy man also revealed that all the contestants were required to meet with a psychiatrist in part, he believed, "to make sure everyone was mentally stable, so when they found out there were straight people there nobody went postal on them."
Meanwhile, Reichen Lehmkuhl and Chip Arndt used their victory on CBS Thursday as a platform to encourage the belief that gay people were as capable and have the same values and goals as everyone else.
