I’ve previously declared my undying devotion to Joey W. To my mind, there are three major flaws with No Sacrifice: too much repetition, the conflict seems contrived and the characterizations are one dimensional. Lookit, even truly exceptional people lead ordinary lives that are fairly dull, and I don’t want to read about their daily lives either. It’s the equivalent of reading a day in the life of a midlevel actor. If you’re going to give me slice of life then it needs to be accompanied by some angst, conflict, tension and maybe some sort of intrigue to keep me interested, and there was none of that here. No Sacrifice is a slice of life tale that unfortunately didn’t work for me. If not, not to worry, it’s not vital to plot. Duncan’s Golden Collar series, you’ll recognize a few things from No Sacrifice, namely the show on which Patrick works, Deception. By the time he realizes his mistake, it may be too late. But Patrick isn’t ready to be out the way Chance has been for so long, and when the matter is taken out of Patrick's hands, he pushes Chance away to spare him the mess Patrick's life has become. Patrick’s new understanding of his bisexual identity helps him sleep better-until the next day, when he discovers Chance is a sound technician on the same set.Īs their friendship grows and Patrick’s marriage ends, he recognizes a possibility for much more with Chance. After having a little too much alcohol, he spills his problem to Chance, who helps him realize there’s something other than gay and straight. One night he goes to drink his worries away, meets Chance Dillon, and can’t take his eyes off the man. He refuses to accept it, reminding himself he’s married and a father-and thus, straight.
But as the show progresses, his life of absolute certainties crumbles when he finds himself reacting to the kisses of his male costar. Patrick has taken his acting talents from high school all the way to a role in a major television show.
