OUTtv has made 10 renewals and new commissions as it moves full speed ahead into the final month of the year.

The LGBTQ+ network commissioned the socially distanced dating show Group Sext (6 x 30 minutes) from Toronto-based Go Button Media. The format sees Crystal, who previously appeared on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, help a contestant find a socially distanced match.

Avocado Toast (Guts and Gall Productions, 10 x 11 minutes, pictured), a short-form series by and starring Heidi Lynch and Perrie Voss, has also been renewed for a second season.

Boy Boy (10 x 30 minutes), a documentary series from Montreal-based prodco Romeo et Fils, also received the greenlight from OUTtv. The show paints a contemporary portrait of gay pornography in Montreal, with each episode covering different topics illuminating the workings of the industry.

Six of the greenlights went to L.A.-based Producers Entertainment Group (PEG), including a season-two renewal for the sit-com The Browns (3 x 22 minutes), featuring RuPaul’s Drag Race alumni Tammie Brown.

OUTtv also commissioned PEG’s The Sherry Vine Variety Show (6 x 30 minutes), a sketch show described as being inspired by the variety show legends of the 1970s, and four specials: Sharon Needles: Mask It or Casket (1 x 75 minutes), BeBe Zahara Benet: Broken English (1 x 45 minutes), Peppermint: Girl Like Me (1 x 45 minutes) and Jujubee: Good Juju (1 x 45 minutes).

Elsewhere, OUTtv gave a season-five greenlight to the arts and culture program Never Apart, which is designed to give inspiration and advice to queer artists.
