Apparently Buffy‘s Tom Lenk came out of the closet several months ago. (Not that he was really in, was he?) How did I miss this?

Tom Lenk held several great reasons to come out. Beloved by Buffy the Vampire Slayer viewers for his role as the ambiguously gay geek Andrew, Lenk recently scored a gig on the Fox sitcom Do Not Disturb as the longtime boyfriend of a gay character, played by Jesse Tyler Ferguson (The Class). The plot would revolve around gay marriage and provide the platform for Lenk’s first gay on-screen kiss. Even better, Lenk thought, both he and Ferguson are average-looking guys. “I don’t have six-pack abs. I don’t have highlights … anymore,” Lenk says he thought at the time. “Yay! A gay couple on TV that’s not filtered through the glossy Hollywood lens of glamour.”

Lenk finally felt he had a legitimate reason to share in the press what his friends, family, and colleagues had known for years. And then, the night before this interview, he got a call. The show, a behind-the-scenes comedy about a Manhattan hotel, had been canceled. His kiss episode would never air.

Also, he recently joined Twitter.
