Neil Patrick Harris' Partner to Talk Sex Life on New Show

By Rob Shuter Posted Apr 8th 2011 10:46AM

Buzz is building for 'Foursome,' a sex-themed talk show set to air on E! and co-starring David Burtka, the partner of 'How I Met Your Mother' star Neil Patrick Harris.

"It's bound to be the hottest, hippest show on E! since 'Chelsea Lately,'" one insider who has seen the pilot tells me.

What will make it so hot is the fact that Burtka, along with ex-'American Idol' singer Kimberly Caldwell and two others, will be talking frankly about their own sex lives. This won't be 'Loveline,' folks.

"I have quite a past," David told TV Guide last month. "I have lots of stories to talk about."

But David also made it pretty clear that Neil has nothing to worry about since he'll mainly be talking about his pre-Doogie lovers.

Neil also told TV Guide that since the arrival of their 5-month-old twins Gideon and Harper, there hasn't been much going on in their bed but sleep anyway.

My source who has seen the show says, "David is so good, it's not going to be too long until Neil is know as his husband rather than the other way around!"

I'm not sure I believe this. David and Neil are fairly private people and David's doing well as a chef now.

That is truly tacky and disrespectful to your present marraige relationship to share war stories like that.

Oh it's on E! Who watches that channel anyway?

By dian

Isn't anything P-R-I-V-A-T-E anymore?

By Jeanann

Does anybody really care about this? I'm not interested in his sex life. TV is really scraping the bottom for "entertainment." This is sick.

By Joe

Better to be a gay white boy, than a homophobic black man.

By Diana

This crap is just way over the top. If this is the best TV has
to offer, It's time to turn it OFF.

Burtka? Isn't that a misspelling? Shouldn't it read "Buttcaka?" Are there really enough Rump Rangers to draw sponsors other than Vaseline?

By Ron

I don't know, but you seem to be very enlightened with the terminology.

By greg

Is this why we pay a small fortune monthly for cable television?
I agree with the others that the networks must have totally run out of ideas for worthwhile shows to watch if we have to be subjected to non stop reality shows!
Any one way to hear about my earlier sex life??? lol

And YOU are the alternative?

By rb

Partners? Like business partners?

I think it's more like sharing their lives together partners.

By BronxGirl

There seems to be two sides to this story:

1. People's sex lives should be private and not tabloid or TV fodder.

2. Those who find it tacky, don't have to watch it.

I agree with both views. I'm not interested in this at all.

By Annette9929

There is nut much on tv anymore worth watching. Who cares about these fools and their sex lives. Is anyting private anymore?

By jasmcfarr

to ReadingIsADyingSkill. You have no idea concerning the Word of God, so I suggest you don't talk about it that way.

By ReadingIsADyingSkill

Well, I have read that evil book called The Holy Bible and have personally read the atrocities in it.

So don't bet your own life on me stopping talking about it any time soon.

Especially when the duped lemmings of that religion are in favor of CHristian Sharia.

ReadinIsADyingSkill says its childishness to call this show "Gross"
Excuse me, but it is GROSS, in fact it is disgusting. I am tired of these so called "Tolerant" people labeling the rest of us as
"Racist", "Sexist" "Homophobic" etc. if we disagree with their acceptance of unacceptable behavior. What about homosexuality is so delightful, attractive and normal that we should think nice thoughts about people who sodomize and felate each other, and the want to talk about it on TV (or anywhere else). I am not homophobic, I am not "afraid" of homosexuals, I just find their activities disgusting. Also, I am not thrilled that the word gay has been co-opted to describe these people, If any word should be used in reference to them, it should be "SAD"

Tolerance is not the same as acceptance. I didn't call anyone disagreeing with the show (I disagree with it, too) racist or homophobic. I was calling the racist and homophobic remarks (which were actually racist and homophobic) that were removed.

I am calling the "grossed out" people childish. That is something entirely different.

Grow up.
