BIANCA'S RAPE By now you may have heard— last Monday on ALL MY CHILDREN, young lesbian Bianca (Eden Riegel) was raped by evil cosmetics mogul Michael Cambias. GLAAD has expressed disappointment and concern over the development, but we're just wondering what will happen next. Me, I'm hoping that—in the same way that Joan Collins once made a dramatic courtroom debut as Alexis on DYNASTY—that there's a sudden new surprise plot twist in which Alyson Hannigan suddenly moves to Pine Valley, still in character as lesbian teen witch Willow from BUFFY, bringing with her a group of Lipstick Lesbian Potentials to combat the Straight Girls' Club at Fusion Cosmetics and to fight against the evil Michael Cambias ... but that's just me. ALL MY CHILDREN airs every weekday on ABC at noon.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 16 HOLLYWOOD SQUARES (CBS, 4 p.m.) Dame Edna is Center Square all week. PYRAMID (Ch 6 WCIU, 4:30 p.m.) Hal Sparks (Michael on QUEER AS FOLK). QUEER EYE FOR THE STRAIGHT GUY (Bravo, 5 p.m.) Repeats of Tuesday's premiere two episodes will air throughout the week, also Saturday at 5 p.m., 6 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.; Sunday at 1, 5 and 11,a.m.

THURSDAY, JULY 17 ELLEN HERE AND NOW (HBO, 1:40 a.m.) AMAZING RACE 4 (CBS, 7 p.m.) Chip and Reichen, the gay married couple from Beverly Hills, are still in the race, but Tian and Jaree, The Lesbian/Straight Actress/Model Team, were eliminated last week. THE DISCO BALL (ABC, 7 p.m.) Repeat: A mediocre straight-sanitized celebration of disco, notable for appearances by such rarely seen Disco Classics as Thelma Houston ('Don't Leave Me This Way') and Cheryl Lynn ('Got To Be Real') and Gloria Gaynor ('I Will Survive'). Whoopi Goldberg and Martha Wash sing 'It's Raining Men.' Bruce Vilanch is carried onstage on a Pharaoh chair by four gym bunnies. ISAAC MIZRAHI (Oxygen, 9:30pm) Tori Amos.

FRIDAY, JULY 18 BOSTON PUBLIC (Fox, 8 p.m.) Repeat: Guber becomes faculty sponsor of the Winslow Gay-Straight Alliance after a student is the victim of a gay-bashing. ON THE RECORD w/ BOB COSTAS (HBO, 10:30 p.m.) Angelina Jolie. Repeats Sat at 10 a.m.

SATURDAY, JULY 19 ALLY MCBEAL (FX, 1 p.m.) Repeat: The firm represents a man who claims he should not have to pay alimony because his ex-wife is a lesbian and never was attracted to him. RUPAUL: BRAVO PROFILES (Bravo, 10 a.m.) CHER: THE FAREWELL TOUR (Bravo, 4 p.m.)

SUNDAY, JULY 20 BECKER (CBS, 7 p.m.) Repeat: Becker gets jealous and lies to a friend who expresses interest in Chris by telling him that she is gay. Unfortunately, the man acts on John's information and sets Chris up with a lesbian acquaintance. SEX AND THE CITY (HBO, 8 p.m.) Carrie must figure out how to deal with Berger's insecurities when it becomes clear she is the 'successful' one in their relationship. Charlotte tries to imagine a future without a man. Miranda has an unplanned overnighter with Steve. Samantha uses her PR magic to help make hunky waiter Jerry (Jason Lewis) a star. THE WIRE (9 p.m.) With Sonja Sohn as lesbian Detective Shakima Greggs.

MONDAY, JULY 21 JAY LENO, NBC, 10:35 p.m. Angelina Jolie. Last week, Jolie told Barbara Walters about her affair with a woman.

TUESDAY, JULY 22 BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER (UPN, 7 p.m.) Repeat. With Alyson Hannigan as teen lesbian witch Willow. Andrew (Tom Lenk) irritates the Scoobies by filming their activities for a documentary on Buffy, as Sunnydale High is rocked by an outbreak of student violence. QUEER EYE FOR THE STRAIGHT GUY (Bravo, 9 p.m.) An all-new episode! REAL WORLD PARIS (MTV, 9 p.m.) Gay Simon, 18, has still remained mostly in the background. NYPD BLUE (ABC, 9 p.m.) Repeat.
