Dad buys me a n*ked man for Christmas

  

Link to the n*de photos

When I was a kid in Rock Island, three local celebrities were praised in the media, advertized in bookstores, and assigned by teachers: 

1. Jazz musician Bix Beiderbecke

2. Poet Carl Sandburg

3. Sculptor Isabel Bloom.

Born Isabel Scherer in 1908, she grew up in Davenport, across the river in Iowa, and studied at Grant Wood's Stone City Art Colony, where she met and married fellow artist John Bloom.  In the 1950s, she began producing distinctive sculptures carved out of Mississippi River stone or molded of mud mixed with concrete.  

They were absolutely atrocious. Angels, fairies, hugging children, mothers hugging babies, cats, doves, bridal couples, snowmen, Santa Clauses, the most maudlin, sentimental, and heteronormative dreck ever imagined.

But everyone in the Quad Cities loved them.  My parents loved them.There were two or three in every room.  Dozens more crossed the state with us to give to our Indiana relatives for Christmas presents.  When an out-of-town friend visited, they always went home with a Isabel Bloom fairy or hugging child.

So I should have anticipated what would happen.

I had just discovered Greek art -- rather, statues of muscular Greek gods, so for Christmas in ninth grade, I  asked for "a statue."  

I meant a desk-sized statue of a n*ked god, like the Belvedere Apollo, but Dad said, "Sure -- let's go down to Isabel Bloom's, and you can pick out the one you want."

I couldn't tell him "No, no...I wanted a naked Greek god, not some stupid boy holding a frog!", so my boyfriend Dan and I had to fake-grin our way through a mid-December visit to the crowded studio in the Village of West Davenport, as we sorted through Angel with Wreath, Unconditional Love, Lovebirds, Boy with Flag...

Eventually Dan wandered off, but my torture continued: Girl with Pumpkin, Newlyweds, Boy Offering Girl Flowers, Baby in Crib, Sleeping Cat...  

Then Dan came running excitedly from a side studio.  "Hey, what about this one?"  It was a n*de male figure, seated, his arms around his knees.   Stylized, not muscular, but a heck of a lot better than the other stuff.

"John's Thinker, " he read from the bottom. 

"Must be a statue of her husband," I said, carefully taking it from his hands.  It felt warm to the touch.  It was thrilling to think that I might be holding an exact likeness of a real n*ked man.

"No, she didn't do this statue, her husband John did," Dad said, frowning.  "It's not a real Isabel Bloom."

"That's ok.  It's different from the others.  I'll take it." 

He looked at me oddly.  "The others are lots nicer ones.  How about First Kiss?"  He held out a statue of a little boy kissing an embarrassed little girl on the cheek.

"I don't want any statues of girls."

"It's a boy and a girl.  That's like two statues for the price of one!"

Was he objecting to the price of John's Thinker?  No, First Kiss cost twice as much.  "This one's cheaper."  

"But..you could use it as a kind of model, you know.  When you want a girl to let you kiss her, just show her the statue."

"Gross!" Dan exclaimed.

"After you discover girls, I mean."

"John's Thinker, please," I said firmly.

Dad shrugged.  "Well, if you're sure that's the one you want.  But I don't know what you're going to do with it, Skeezix." 

 Later I figured out that he always called me Skeezix, after a character in the old Gasoline Alley comic strip, when I expressed same-sex desire, something bizarre and beyond imagining at the time.

I still have the statue.  And someone put an Isabel Bloom angel and cat on my father's grave.

Aaron Tobey: The gay boy who wrote the 4th Amendment on his chest

  On December 30, 2011, this became the most famous photo on the internet.  Not only because the guy has an impressive physique, because he wrote the 4th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution on his chest.

21-year old architectural student Aaron Tobey was grieving: his grandfather had just died, and he had to fly to Wisconsin for his funeral -- at the busiest time of the year.   He was sick of those invasive scanning machines, so he had a friend write the 4th Amendment on his chest: "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated."

When he got to the scanner, he stripped down to his jogging shorts.  The TSA officer immediately called the police, who handcuffed him and dragged him to the airport lockup. After questioning him for an hour, they were satisfied that he wasn't a terrorist (because he knows the Constitution?), and issued him a summons for disorderly conduct.  They also confiscated his luggage.

Left: At the airport.

Aaron put on his clothes, took a later flight (after going through the scanner the ordinary way), went to the funeral, and sued two TSA screeners for violation of his First, Fourth, and Fourteenth Amendment Rights (freedom of speech, freedom to avoid unnecessary searches, and due process in criminal proceedings).  A lower court found in his favor, so the TSA went to appeal.  The Apellate court found that the the screeners did violate the First Amendment in arresting him for a text that was not inflammatory or obscene.  Who cares that he had it written on his chest?

Besides, he was just giving them what they wanted.  Those screeners (since discontinued) showed a lot more of your front and back parts than Aaron was showing.

Unfortunately, that was all of the notoriety (and beefcake) that we got from Aaron.  He completed his M.Arch from the Rhode Island School of Design and Ph.D. in Architectural History from Yale University, and is now an assistant professor of architecture at the University of Wisconson, Milwaukee.  

His research interests include the hsitory of twentieth century architecture, technology, and organizations with a focus on the intersection of histories of computing, management, and postmodernism in a global context.

Jake Rory: The Shropshire Lad plays gay-vague on EastEnders, falls in love with Mercutio, gets n*ked in third of his on-screen roles.

  

Link to the n*de photos

The media calls Jake Rory  a Shropshire Lad, reflecting the book of poetry by A.E. Housman, who was terrified of acknowledging his love for men:

Look not in my eyes, for fear
  They mirror true the sight I see,
And there you find your face too clear
  And love it and be lost like me.

He grew up in Maesbury, Shropshire, near the Welsh border; his Mum ran the Talbot Pub across the border in Welshpool.  After secondary school at The Hammond, he attended ArtsEd, a "world-renowned" drama school in London:

There Jake appeared in:

The Cherry Orchard (who hasn't?)

 Orpheus Descending, by Tennessee Williams.  Bi actor Marlon Brando starred in the movie version.

Macbeth

And The Voysey Inheritance: Desire and social obligation, by the heavily closeted Harley Granville-Barker.

He also had a minor role in the short Renters (2024): a lesbian couple in Auckland are looking for a flat.  One seems too good to be true, until... 

Jake graduated with a B.A. in Acting in 2024, and was immediately cast in a modernized version of Oedipus on the West End (October 2024-January 2025).  Mark Strong played Oedipus. Jake was in the ensemble, and understudied the roles of Eteocles, Polyneices, and Lichas (Oedipus' son, brother, and assistant).

In 2025, Jake and Connor Monroe wrote and performed in Mercutio,  a modern retelling of Romeo and Juliet, at the Camden Fringe Festival.  A review mentions an "unexpected romantic subtext," but of course the gay-subtext romance betwween Mercutio and Romeo is well known.  

Connor Monroe is apparently gay.  A woman posts on "Love Is All That Matters" about her "gay brother Connor Monroe," and someone by that name mentions having a husband. 

Jake also began television work in 2025.  In Episode 1.8 of The Agency, Martian (Michael Fassbinder), a CIA agent working undercover, walks in on his daughter  Poppy and her boyfriend Daniel (Jake), both unclothed.  Danny Boy strikes a pose, planning to fight the "intruder"; but upon realizing that it's just Dad, he settles for covering up.

Martian is nonchalant about his daughter getting busy.  Later he praises her for growing into a "cool person."

Andrew Santino: Aren't gay men hilarious? But have you heard what they do in bed?

Link to the NSFW version

Today I started a review of Royal Crackers, an animated series on MAX about a family running a cracker empire.  As usual, I checked to see if any of the actors have beefcake photos or are gay.

Andrew Santino, who plays the washed-up rock star son: About a dozen beefcake photos.

Including a group rear.  Notice that the guy on the left has a d*ck hanging down (on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends)

And one with a sock.

Gay: he's on a list of gay male celebrities, but there are also clips saying "Andrew responds to gay rumors," "I'm not gay no more," "Andrew finds out that he's gay,"  "Andrew's gay lover," "Andrew fails the gay test," "Andrew comes out."

Well, which is it?  Is he gay, ex-gay, straight, bi, pan, straight but pretending to be gay as a joke?

Who is this guy, anyway?'

He appears in Game Over, Man and Adam Devine's House Party, and later interviews Adam on the Whiskey Ginger podcast: "What was your worst review?"

Adam: "I don't really get bad reviews, but sometimes they devote three paragraphs to my dick and only two lines to my acting."

He hangs out with the Always Sunny guys. 

He has 40 credits on the IMDB, including substantial roles in:

 I'm Dying Up Here, about the L.A. comedy scene in 1973.  All fictional comedians.

This is Us, "a heartwarming and unique story of a unique set of triplets." Andrew does not play one of the triplets.

Beef, about a road rage incident that spins into a comedy of errors.

Dave, with Dave Burt playing himself as an aspiring rapper. Andrew plays his roommate and manager.

Ricky Stanicky: Three best friends, one gay, invent Ricky to blame their misdeeds on. Andrew plays the focus character, who wants to kill Ricky to get out of attending his pregnant wife's baby shower.

Rage Boy Mitch: Probably gay gamer from Brisbane shows his muscles early in his training. With Mitch d*ck and a Jakarta chunk

 

Link to the n*de photos

Most amateur bodybuilders don't start posting until they have a ripped physique, but not Rage Boy Mitch: he wants us to see his development from Day #1.  He has 35 posts on Instagram, all from May-June 2026.  

He looks scared.  I imagine that it takes a lot of courage to post at this stage of your training.  Most comments tell Mitch that he's ripped or hot, or encourage him to keep going, but there are a few haters.

Come on, you can't look like this when you're just starting out.  Or ever. (N*de on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends).

At least no one was hating the video where his pajama bottoms slide off during a pose. 

I'm not sure of Mitchell's age, so you don't get to see the result, but the backside on  RG Beefcake and Boyfriends will give you an idea.

  

Mitch also reviews food, like Gym Bod Ice Cream.

Dude, staging counts.  Don't review a product in your pajamas, with an unmade bed in the background.

OMG, some jaw-dropping queer codes on "Chad Powers." Russ and Danny are in love! With Zahn backside, Clayne d*ck, and some random Tennessee dudes

  

Link to the n*de dudes

This is huge.  This is Glenn and Zy holding hands on Solar Opposites,  Finn on a date with a boy in Unprisoned, Scotty telling Gideon "You knock me out" on The Righteous Gemstones. 

This is Kurt Russell smiling at Patrick Dawson on a dreary November night many years ago, the smile that gave me the first clue that two boys can fall in love. 

 A few weeks ago, I reviewed Episode 1.2 of the Hulu sports series Chad Powers: several years after he was cancelled for being an a-hole, footballer Russ (Glen Powell) tries to get into the game by pretending to be high school superstar Chad Powers and playing for  he South Georgia State College Catfish.  

He is assisted by Danny (Frankie Rodriguez), the team mascot, who gives him a place to stay, provides his prosthetic cheeks, and makes sure that the back story details he ad-libs are consistent.

They aren't at all consistent,  but Coach Hudson (Steve Zahn) is desperate for a winning season, so he doesn't dig too deeply.

Danny displays a few queer codes, but doesn't express any same-sex interest.  Frankie Rodriguez stated in an interview that it's nice to play a gay character where being gay is not the main thing about him, but I wasn't happy.  Most viewers won't notice, or will dismiss the queer codes with "Straight guys do that.  It doesn't make him gay."

Then came Episode 1.4.  I'll do a brief synopsis to get to the jaw-dropping part.

Scene 1: On the bus en route to an away game in Knoxville, the Coach presumes that Chad/Russ and Danny are boyfriends, even though they aren't sitting together.  He personally doesn't care, but they will in Tennessee, so keep it closeted.  

Chad/Russ claims that they're not boyfriends, they're brothers: Danny's family fostered him for a few years, and then Chad/Russ's family fostered Danny.  This makes no sense, and doesn't fit the established back story at all, but the Coach just shrugs.  Whatever, he's a good player.

Scene 2: At the hotel, Assistant Coach Dobbs (Clayne Crawford, right) cautions the players to not "spread any cheeks" tonight, so they'll be rested for the big game (while looking directly at Chad/Russ, also assuming that he and Danny are boyfriends). 

Bedtime is 11:00 pm.  If you're not in your room by bed check, you don't play tomorrow. 

Scene 3: Problem: someone left the cap off the glue, so there's no way to affix Russ's prosthetic cheeks.  The ones he is wearing will fall apart by morning.  What to do?

"There must be prosthetic glue somewhere in Knoxville," Russ suggests. 

The other players have invited some fans, including Mean Girl Sasha, to a pre-bedtime party in their room. Russ and Danny steal her car keys so they can drive to a Halloween store.

Noticing the messiness of Mean Girl Sasha's car, Russ exclaims "Girls are gross!" 

"But not Assistant Coach Ricky?  Don't you have a crush on her?"

"Heck, no.  She's just nice, that's all."  So you don't like girls, Russ?  I did notice that you brought a dude to the club in Episode 1.   "And she's being nice to Chad, not Russ."

"Yeah, she'd hate Russ.  She's not into f*kboys." A f*kboy is someone who treats his partners like objects.  So Danny doesn't think of Russ as a potential partner because he wants something more meaningful?

Scene 3: At the Halloween store, Russ notices his face on a Halloween costume: "A-Hole Quarterback."  He's depressed, but Danny tries to console him by suggesting that the model was another a-hole "with frosted tips and a cubic zirconia ear stud."  

A big guy bought the last bottle of glue, and is using it to apply a mask.  Russ wants Danny to ask him for the glue, but he refuses: "Bears are not my type."  What about A-hole quarterbacks?

So Russ approaches and starts a conversation.  It's a mask of the rival team; he's planning to wear it to the game tomorrow in honor of his dad.  

While they are talking, Danny steals the glue.  That's a lot of theft, buddy. Aren't you supposed to be encouraging Russ to become a better person?  

Scene 4: The Bear notices and chases them out of the store. 

Another problem: Someone broke into the car and stole their stuff, including Danny's $180 airpods and the prosthetic cheeks! 

They track down the guy,  but he starts shooting, so they run away.  And Russ cut his hand on the broken glass in the car! 

Scene 5: The wait at the ER is too long --bed check is in an hour -- so Russ orders Danny to find some bandages.  He'll take care of his injury himself.

Danny: "You can't order me around. Am I your employee?"

Russ: "I don't wanna litigate the nature of our...whatever this is...right now."  It's a friendship.  Why is it so hard to define?  Unless....

 Danny is incensed over his refusal to name their relationship "Our whatever? I save your *ss again and again and again..."

Russ:  "You're just hanging out with me because of Chad.  Chad makes you relevant." 

More arguing.  Each accuses the other of using him, not really loving...I mean caring about him, and finally Russ orders Danny to leave.  

"Ok, if you don't need anyone, get your own goddam glue."  He dumps the glue out onto the floor and storms out.

Russ sits there for awhile, upset over the breakup.  Back to his problem: they use medical adhesive in hospitals.  He steals some, bandages his hurt hand, and rushes back to the hotel.  

The jaw-dropping scene after the break.  

The Witch: A family in Colonial New England is bedeviled, with beefcake and gay symbolism. Wouldst thou like to live deliciously?

 

Around 1630, William (Ralph Ineson) and his family are exiled from Plimoth Plantation, the first Puritan colony in the New World, for espousing religious heresy.  We're not told what the heresy is, but it may have to do with the need to earn your salvation.  The Puritans were Calvinists: you are born saved or damned, and there is nothing you can do about it.  Your good or evil works are just evidence that you were "born that way."

But working for your salvation is even worse, because no matter how many good works you do, one sin will cast it all aside  When I was growing up, it was the same: the Nazarene Church taught Christian perfection.  You could be totally holy for every moment of your life, except for one moment of doubt that you forgot to repent for, and that was enough to spend eternity in the Lake of Fire.  

Back to my childhood...um. I mean the Puritans.  They try to start a farm, but William is no good at farming, or hunting, or building things, or...well, anything but chopping wood, which he does obsessively.  He's also not a great role model: he steals his wife's heirloom silver cup, then blames his teenage  daughter, Thomasin (Anya Taylor-Joy).  He decides to sell her to another family, to make ends meet.

He tells his son Caleb (Harvey Scrimshaw) to lie about their failed hunting trip, and gets angry when he asks whether unbaptized babies go to heaven.  

When their infant son vanishes, we see that a witch has grabbed him to use his blood for a flying spell, but the family blames Thomasin for not keeping an eye on him.  

Meanwhile, the twins are tormenting their goat, named Black Phillip, and claim that he talks to them.  The family blames Thomasin for that, too. 

Then Caleb, who has been sneaking peeks at his sister's bosom, disappears.  We see that he has been lured to the witche's hut: she appeared as an attractive woman with a large bosom, and kissed him before reverting to her true form.   He returns to the farm the next daked and babbling.  The family thinks he is being bedeviled by the witch, and try to pray: but the twins have forgotten their prayer!  They claim that Thomasin used witchcraft to keep their mouths shut, and she claims that they are witches, so of course they cannot pray.  After a moment of ecstatic lucidity, where he claims that he sees Jesus, Caleb dies.

Thomasin angrily confronts William over his many misdeeds, but insists that she is not the witch.  He can't decide, so he locks her and the twins in the goat house. 

During the night, things go wrong.  Mom gets a vision of her two dead sons, and ends up nursing a crow.  Black Peter head-butts William, knocking him into his two-story tall pile of logs and killing him.  Then the ram kills the twins.

Mom concludes that Thomasin is responsible for the murders, and attacks; Thomasin must kill her in self-defense.  

Sh asks Black Peter to speak to her. He asks: "Wouldst thou like to live deliciously?"

Yeah, that sounds cool.

Taking the form of a man (Daniel Malik), he asks her to write her name in a book, then leads her into the forest, where she joins a coven of witches in their ecstatic gyrating around a fire.  They all start to levitate.

Several reviews have found queer codes in the outsiders lurking in the woods, the Others who threaten the heterosexual nuclear family, when someone inside the family may be one of them as well.

The witches are evil, of course, murdering people either tu use in spells or to please Black Peter; but they also provide a queer space.  Black Phillip offers Thomasin the opportunity to "don't dream it, be it," to embrace her lesbian identity.

Ibrahim Eloouhabi: The "I Killed a Kid" kid tells us his pronouns, models some Liberace outfits. Is that enough? With n*de Costner and Moroccan dudes

 

Link to the n*de dudes

I felt like I should profile one of the actors from In the Hand of Dante, to get something of value from it (other than picking up my bilingual edition of The Inferno again).  So  I checked the actors who played teenage Dante, the murdered Bartender, the guy who killed his father, the boy with the big knife (who was killed), and Mephistopheles, but none of them were suitable.  How about the boy who tells his uncle, "I just killed a kid"?  It's not clear in the movie (nothing is), but he grows up to be focus character Nick (Oscar Isaacs, below).

Ibrahim Elouahabi gives his pronouns (he/his), and speaks Arabic.  That's enough for a profile. 

Not just Arabic.  He also speaks Turkish and Darija (Moroccan Arabic) and he is studying French. 

N*de Moroccan guy on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends

Darija is not intelligible with Modern Standard Arabic: it has reduced the number of vowels, adapted its grammar to Tamazight (Berber), and borrowed much of its vocabulary from French: forshita (fork), tabla (table), boulis (police).

Ibrahim's family is from Morocco, but he was born "on the vibrant streets of Brooklyn," according to his hyperbolic IMDB bio.  He began his career in 2019, as a fashion model for Zara, Nike, and Macy's.  Soon he was performing in commercials for Brawny paper towels, Magic Spoon (upscale cereal), and Marriot Vacation Club.

His on-screen performances begin with two shorts, The Prescription (2020), no description available, and Roque (2022), about Salvadorean poet Roque Dalton.  Ibrahim plays Roque as a boy, and Jaden McKnew (left) as an adult.

Next came a small role in Audrey's Children (2024), a biopic of Dr. Audrey Evans, who developed "revolutionary treatments" for sick children.

In Ebenezer the Traveler (2024), the ghosts of Scrooge, his sister, Jacob Marley, and a grown-up Tiny Tim are assigned to help an aspiring singer in modern-day Oklahoma.  I think Ibrahim plays her son.

Gavin Warren: The unbreakable brother, homecoming queen, and astronaut's son shows us his snake. With Gavin d*ck and Spade backside

 

Link to the n*de photos

Gavin Da Guy, aka Gavin Warren, was recommended to me on Instagram.  I usually get recommendations from bodybuilders and Braxton Alexander's friends, so I scrolled through.  And it turns out that I already had a file of photos of Gavin Warren, dating from December 2025

.

This one piqued my interest.  Were you really the Homecoming Queen, buddy?

There are so many gay hints on Gavin's Instagram that I don't even need to check his acting roles; it's obvious that the dude is not dudes. But just to be complete:

He was born in 2008 in Katy, about 30 miles east of Houston, ugh...Texas.  So about three hours by car.   His modeling career began in 2014, and by  2015 he had won the Most Sought-After Male Award at the International Model and Talent Association Convention in Los Angeles.

His acting career begins in 2016, playing Fashionable Boy in Fabulous Phebe (about a fashion designer interested in "diversity").

And Superhero Boy in a PSA for the Tahrih Justice Project, supporting immigrant women who survived gender-based violence. 

A nice beginning to his career.

Gavin first became famous in  First Man (2018), about Neil Armstrong (Ryan Gosling), the first man to set foot on the moon.  Gavin plays the younger version of his son, Rick Armstrong (Luke Winters as an adult, n*de on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends).  It may not be the same Luke Winters.

More shorts and playing the young version of a central character in an indie film followed, nothing of particular gay interest except Daybreak (2019), a post-Apocalyptic teen series with a gay couple.  Gavin plays the young version of a straight guy.

Next Gavin spent five episodes of Fear the Walking Dead (2023), playing Finch, son of Dwight and Shery (formerly of the totalitarian Factory, now of the totalitarian PADRE).  He is bitten by a zombie while trying to save his father's life. There are gay characters around.

Left: Gavin chilling with his dog in 2023.   A male follower praises his "biceps and abs," suggesting that he is already drawing the interest of gay boys

The Man in the White Van (2023), one of Gavin's "most famous for" works, is about a serial killer stalking two teenage girls (in a white van).  Their parents don't believe them.  Gavin plays their younger brother.

Night Swim (2024): A family moves into a house where a malevolent force haunts the swimming pool.  Really?  

Dad is played by Wyatt Russell (n*de on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends), who you remember from Disclosure Day as the longsuffering boyfriend of the weather lady Chosen One.  But it looks like it's mostly the teenager daughter and preteen son who get dragged under.

Homecoming 2024.  Is that your date, Gav Baby, or do you both have girlfriends, off camer and not mentioned?

Researching Adam Christian Clark's celebrity stuff. With a Big Brother, a Chunk, and a lot of arthouse indie angst

 

Link to the not fully clothed photos

The main reason I check out the Celebrity Not-Fully-Clothed subreddit is for  shots of actors I've never heard of in movies I've never heard of.  Like this one, Adam Christian Clark in Newly Single (2017).  

Nice  grin, buddy.  

Next to him we see the back of someone's head and part of their backside.  They have a man's haircut but no torso definition, so I'm not sure if it's a man or a woman.

We also see Adam's backside.  He doesn't have any torso definition, either.

But he's big beneath the belt, so I'll let his backside deficiency slide, and check to see if he's playing a gay character here (or in another movie), or if he's gay in real life.

Bad news: Adam is a director and filmmaker.  He's only acted in three movies:

Stasis (2010), a sci-fi short about a solder in a futuristic dystopia (Reshad Strik. left) who is asked to fight for The Girl.  Adam plays "The Eye."

Face in the Crowd (2013): A woman searches for human connection.  Adam plays one of 17 Faces that she encounters.

And Newly Single (2017).

Well, maybe he's directed some movies with gay content.

Adam's directing career began in 2002, when he was still a student at the USC School of Cinematic Art, and hired for the reality show Big Brother.  He stuck around for Seasons 3-5  (2002-24), then moved on to direct other reality shows, like XTreme Sports Television, Fine Tuned (cars), and Fashion Star (wannabe models from China).

Left: Josh Feinberg, whose stay on Big Brother Season 3 got him a not fully clothed photo spread in Playgirl (on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends)

During ths period, Adam wrote and directed two shorts:

The Editor: A Man I Despise (2008), with chunk Richard Riehle (on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends) as the editor, and characters named Museum Girl #1-3, Waitress, Woman, and Young Woman.

I get the impression that Adam really likes the ladies.

Goodbye Shanghai (2010): Two Western bankers embezzle $14 billion from the U.S. government. They spend their last night in Shanghai partying with girls (lots of girls) before things go wrong. It won a New Media Award.

Michael Lembeck: The "One Day at a Time" and "Gorp" hunk takes off his shirt, directs gay tv

Speaking of One Day at a Time (1975-84),  the biggest hunk who entered the lives of the single mom Ann Romano and her two daughters (Barbara and Julie) was not William Kirby Cullen or Scott Colomby, but Michael Lembeck as the smiling, bearded, hairy-chested, tight-jeans wearing Max Horvath.

He first appears on October 14th, 1979, as the best man at  elder daughter Julie's wedding -- who falls in love with Julie himself.  She calls the wedding off to date him, and eventually they marry and have a child.  

By the last season, Julie has run away, leaving Max a single dad. In an interesting triangulation, he is sharing a house with Barbara and her husband Mark (Boyd Gaines).

I wasn't watching One Day at a Time by that point -- it was suffering from "we're out of ideas, so let's change the entire premise" syndrome -- so I don't know if Anne's adopted son Alex (Glenn Scarpelli) lived there, too.

Born in 1948, Michael Lembeck was the son of Harvey Lembeck, famous as the juvenile delinquent foil in the Frankie-and-Annette beach movies.  He was visible through the 1970s, with guest spots on The Partridge Family, Happy Days, Love American Style, and Room 222, and a recurring role on Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman (1976), as newcaster Clete Mizenheimer.  Plus several important movie appearances.

In Blood Sport (1973), mooning over high-school football star Gary Busey.

In the war drama The Boys in Company C (1978), as the wise-guy Vinnie Fazio, who buddy-bonds with Billy Ray (Andrew Pike).
