20060929_pitt_260x220.jpgVariety is reporting that Brad Pitt has a soft spot for Trannies.

Well, more exactly, he's in a deal with FX and Ryan Murphy (who created “Nip/Tuck”) and Dede Gardner (who co-produced Augusten Borroughs' Running with Scissors), to produce "4 oz," a show that FX that details the transformation of a man who becomes a woman.

We’re, of course, thrilled when anybody takes a risk like this on television. And a story about a married sportswriter, with two teenage sons, who takes on the process of gender reassignment just makes us want to set our TiVos early.

In a quote to Variety, Murphy (who is writing a pilot now) says that he has an ambitious five-season plan for the show.

Five seasons!!??

I personally love the concept of the show it's very innovative and risky, but I do not believe that the show is right for FX. I fear that FX viewers will not connect with transexual lifestyle so it might end up being cancelled. I think the show would do great on BRAVO since it's viewers are use to receiving shows that feature characters that are often vary in lifestyles, for example Queer for the Staight Guy and Six Feet Under.
