Confirmed bachelor

George Takei and Jesse Tyler Ferguson on 'The First Gay Bachelor'

Reality TV just got a little bit gayer.

In a new Funny or Die exclusive, the amazing George Takei hosts reality TV’s first ever Gay Bachelor! Meet Bryden (Modern Family‘s Jesse Tyler Ferguson), a nice guy who’s looking for love in a house full of a dozen other gays.

Unfortunately for Bryden, this TV show looks like there might be something lost in translation from hetero to homo.

As George Takei says, “The first gay bachelor . . . nope . . . there’s still not a black one.”
