SPECIAL: Series director Sam Irvin has let it be known that the fanbase is expanding beyond the niche of the LGBT community. "There are gays, lesbians, bisexuals and straights on this show, and maybe there are more gays and lesbians than most shows, but it also seems to appeal to a mainstream heterosexual audience."
