Gaycation (also known as Gaycation with Ellen Page) is a 2016 American television documentary series hosted by Elliot Page and Ian Daniel. The series premiered on 2 March 2016 on Viceland as part of its new programming launch. The series explores LGBTQ cultures around the world, as Page and Daniel meet different people during their travels and hear their stories.
Development
Gaycation was introduced as part of the programming launch of Vice Media's new channel, Viceland. The series was originally conceived when Spike Jonze, as the co-president of Viceland, approached Elliot Page and requested input on possible show ideas for the new channel; they suggested a travel show with an LGBT perspective. After Jonze recommended that Page be accompanied by a companion during the series, Page suggested Ian Daniel, a personal friend who was an art curator and the Director of Artistic Programs at The Civilians Theater Company, to be brought on as a co-host.
The series was renewed for a second season in 2016.
Production
Filming for the first season began June 2015, in New York City. Notably, Page's attempt to interview Ted Cruz at the Iowa State Fair was recorded by bystanders and went viral; the exchange would appear in the United States episode of the series. Each of the episodes were made available for online viewing shortly after each episode's premiere.
Filming for season 2 began in March 2016. A special episode aired on August 24, 2016, focusing on the aftermath of the mass shooting that occurred at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida. The second season began airing on September 7, 2016. In January 2017, the series was nominated for a GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Reality Program.
