Gay TV on a Monday Night: Kathy Griffin on ‘Tonight Show’

It's Monday, and that means back to the daily grind for the final week of October. If you're lucky enough to live somewhere it's not 80 degrees out, you might be enjoying some crisp autumn weather and all the pumpkin spice-flavored treats that float around this time of year. In L.A. we're sweatin' to the seasons all year round. When it finally cools off in the evening, there'll be some quality entertainment on the schedule tonight. Our favorite fledgling gay sidekick, Eric, pops up on Gossip Girl tonight, and a Trauma character comes out in a Halloween episode. Here are Planet Out's picks for the best Gay TV on tonight.

First, let's take a moment to relive the revelry in which Gossip Girl's resident stud, Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick), made out with a man on last week's episode:

It ain't his first time at that party, Blair! This week on the CW's 9 p.m. drama, Blair (Leighton Meester) and her beau will have to sort through the meaning of Mr. Bass's burgeoning bisexuality after last week's bombshell. Supposedly fans will finally see more of Eric (Connor Paolo) when his loyalty to Jenny (Taylor Momsen) is tested now that she's reigning as Queen Bee.

Meanwhile, at the same time on NBC, one of the characters on Trauma is coming out! (:virtual confetti throw:). To add even more interest, this goes down during Halloween celebrations on the San Francisco-set emergency-medicine drama. S.F. is known for insane shenanigans, especially around the Castro, so let’s hope the show takes some interesting twists.

At 10, Bravo's back with more Million Dollar Listing. The second episode of the new season addresses the greatly declined real estate market. How will the rich brokers survive? Chad and Madison (our fave) both appear at an Arizona conference to address the recession. All the agents have to take on new properties to expand their business, but Chad's got serious regrets about a bungalow with a rodent problem. Josh is sitting significantly prettier, listing a $10 million mansion in Orange County’s Newport Coast.

The late-night talk shows return tonight, and you'll definitely want to tune in for Kathy Griffin on NBC's Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien at 11:35. Finally, a host with the balls not to ban her! Later, "too busy" to reunite with her Saved by the Bell castmates Tiffani Thiessen will be on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

Tell us: What did you think of Gossip Girl's Chuck Bass being bi?
