Did anyone catch Melange when it aired on Logo this week? It is the pilot film for a proposed online soap about a legendary NYC gay bar named Melange, the mysterious death of its owner and the battle for ownership. The cast is full of veteran soap actors. My little friend Kristen Alderson is playing a character named Abigail Collins. Yes, Abigail Collins. Collins is a pretty common name, though Abigail is not. I had to ask if that was just a coincidence. Apparently, there are a lot of Easter Eggs in Melange aimed at soap aficionados. Ilene Kristen is playing a character named Dolly Faye. Wonder if she's descended from Leticia or Pansy.
I don't know if it will be airing again on Logo but it is on YouTube.
