Synopsis
A cable TV host, Mr. Charles, acts so flamboyant, constantly utilizing “nellie breaks,” or the waving around of limp wrists that is so commonly associated with gay men, that he is forced to leave New York. He ends up setting up shop in Florida, where he, along with his assistant Shane, continue their show. They answer all sorts of questions from viewers relating to homosexuality in extremely politically incorrect ways, and Shane comes in every time wearing a new outfit.
