The ABC’s TV line-up for 2012 includes a new comedy about a gay sci-fi fan club. The cast of Outland (pictured above) wrapped filming their six-episode show last summer, and after a patient wait through 2011, the show is set to premiere early next year.

“In the closet, no one can hear you squeal,” says the ABC. In the show, Rae ( Christine Anu ), Toby ( Ben Gerrard ), Andy ( Paul Ireland ), Fab ( Adam Richard ) and Max (Toby Truslove ) are openly gay – and closeted geeks.

“Orbiting around their shambolic meetings at each other’s apartments, this is a series about how you cope if you’re gay and a geek. Mostly it’s about belonging – no matter who you are – and how everyone searches to find a place to fit in.”
