So girlfriend and I developed an attachment to Queer as Folk last week. We rented the first tape intending to mock, and now I have the whole first season waiting for me in my room. It's so bad. The characters are stereotypes, the dialog depends on one liners, emotional outbursts, and people acting directly contrary to the way you *know* they would in real life. For instance: a lesbian couple who gets a birth father that they disagree on. How foolish can you be? Another guy chooses a friend to make the life support decision without asking him. Is that even legal? My favorite moments:
The lesbian couple named Franny and Zoe who have a child named Holden.
One of Justin's classmates is named Bueller.
The gay man who goes straight after promising God he would if he tested negative. He gives up men, even after his friends hire a porn star to come pay him a visit, he stops seeing them, goes from diva to drab, but then one short speech by his friend on God creating him in His image is enough to get him clubbing again.
If clubbing was all there was to gay life, I'd want to be straight, too.
