Did you hear? HBO is planning a show based on Savage Love, the pee-in-your-pants-funny sex advice column featured in syndication in alternative weeklies — like The Washington City Paper and New York City’s Village Voice — across America.

In a blog entry for Seattle’s The Stranger last Thursday, straight-talking columnist Dan Savage revealed that he has been working on “a non-airing presentation pilot for HBO” that would be called “Savage Love.”

“I’m hoping to bring a new kind of conversation to TV about sex — an honest conversation, one that’s informed without being (too) wonky, funny without being (too) cruel, sexy without being (too) cheesy. Basically, my sex advice column — but on the teevee!” Dan wrote.

The prosposed show “will focus on current events and cultural trends with sex as the filter.”

If any PopCrunch readers happen to live in sunny Los Angeles, you can try to get tickets to be part of the live studio audience at the taping of the Savage Love pilot.
