Who remembers Queer As Folk?

I finished the first season last year, was planning to continue and watch season two but I never really did. I don't know if i'm still interested today.

@older4me:

the us version came out around the same time i did!

Same here.  When I didn't have a single gay friend to relate to that show gave me something to empathize with.

And to think that was only, like, 2003 - how far we've come in 13 years.

I finished both versions quite recently. Both are pretty inspirational in their own way. I think because the US version ran longer it could deal with several issues which the UK version did not do. Also I loved Michael's mother as she had a big contribution in the show, whereas Vince's relationship with his mom was not explored to that extent. But both shows are awesome.

Only saw the US version.  Hated Kinney.  Sparks was hot and so was the accountant, haha.  Saw three Power Ranger actors there, hehe.

I still have to watch the UK version.

I remember it, but not fondly.  For a show seeking to overcome stereotypes, it did it's share to keep certain stereotypes going. :afr2:

I remember it, but never really was into it…. It was twinks & "pretty-boys" only from my perspective. Well, that & elderly men INTO "pretty-boys".

[blackwing]

AGREED. It was all about the twinks. It didn't overcome stereotypes, just reinforced them to closeted-folk still shocked that they themselves were gay.
