IA, I wonder if they would have even considered RTD's proposal if they had issues with gay content? So long as it's just kissing (which is all current TW ever has when it comes to the slash couples anyway) I can't see it being that big a deal as I'm sure they've had males kissing on other shows of theirs. And I've always thought that Jack is more talk than action anyway, it's not like he's constantly caught up in raunchy scenes and can't get enough sex, he's more presented as a big flirt than anything else, for all that he gets hyped up as omnisexual
I think the bigger problem with it airing on Fox is that yeah it's not going to have the ratings to sustain itself, it seems like more of a cable show to me. Even over here it did originally start off on BBC2 before it proved itself in the ratings and they decided to move it to BBC1
