PATRICK DARLING
(William Baldwin)
“Dirty Sexy Money’’
There were many rich characters on this show - rich as in wealthy and rich as in colorful. But Patrick, the oldest Darling child, and the least crazy, had plenty of potential. As he climbed a political ladder that might have taken him to the White House, he also determined to be more true to himself and his love for the transsexual Carmelita - before she was murdered, of course. Patrick needs to be on TV, not just because he was in the middle of a struggle to be true to himself but also because, well, how many men are attracted to transsexuals on prime-time TV? Give him a political drama that neither exploits nor ignores his sexual orientation: “The Senator.’’
