ABC has announced that it’s giving a second season to freshman season The Real O’Neals, possibly because it felt the need to balance out all the hordes of angry Marvel nerds and Nashville fans currently yelling at it by re-scandalizing the religious right. Focused on a conservative family that begins to publicly fall apart after all its secrets—gay son, divorcing parents, anorexic oldest kid—are revealed to the community, the show brought down a firestorm of mostly unearned heat when it was first announced. That was largely due to the involvement of sex columnist Dan Savage, upon whose life the series is loosely based.
