As new GBLT-friendly channel Logo makes its way to campus televisions, it appears some other notable favorites have lobbied BU for their own stations and programming. We here at the ol’ Free Press attended an advance screening of shows and channels planned for the lineup this fall. Here’s the best . . . and the worst.

While Logo may cater to a niche market, the Iranian Ahmadinejad Channel will cater to those who are definitely not gay.

For the fashion-conscious viewer, MIT student Star Simpson will be hosting What Not to Wear, a homemade fashion showcase.

Looking for a post-flight destination? The Travel Channel will run Buildings That Look Like Ominous Nazi Symbols to help you plan any controversial trips.

Those jet-setters who prefer to step up to the high-rollers table will enjoy programming on the Game Show Network with Gov. Deval Patrick. What prizes will he reveal behind those $10K curtains?

Feeling intellectual? Test your mind with Are You Smarter than a CGS Student?

Those across the political spectrum, and up a few income brackets, will enjoy the BU College Republicans’ cameo appearance on BET.

Adil Yunis, the man who purports to have been all around campus, will continue to break hearts and make proposals on The Bachelor: Student Union.

Those looking to bust a move, and maybe a political career, should tune into So You Think You Can Dance? to see a special ‘tap tap’ dance by Republican Sen. Larry Craig.

The Fabulous Life of Robert Brown will set the bar for swank, while the School of Education’s To Catch a Predator, featuring Mark Foley and the Boston Catholic Diocese, will probably creep you out.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? will be hosted by some of the most naive students in the Class of 2008.

Eager Free Press readers looking to catch their favorite editors and writers on TV, Real World-style, are out of luck. The FCC closed down the WDFP channel for offensive content, alcohol use, lack of sexual activity and brief nudity.
