Posted July 8, 200717 yr Queer As Folk chronicles the lives of a group of twenty-something gay friends as their lives and loves unfold, ambitions soar, passions collide, careers struggle, and fates conflict. They go to work, raise children, look forward to the weekend – and have a healthy interest in sex. The US series, based on and closely following the story of the ground-breaking British hit, relocates the action from Manchester to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a city as urban working class straight as it gets. This brave, funny and sometimes graphic portrayal of a world not usually seen on television provides an intimate look at six homosexual men: Brian (Gale Harold), a lusty advertising executive; Michael (Hal Sparks); Michael’s HIV+ boyfriend Ben (Robert Gant); flamboyant Emmett (Peter Paige); Ted (Scott Lowell), a cyberporn-loving accountant; and Justin (Randy Harrison), a teenage art student obsessed with Brian. Rounding out the circle of friends are art teacher and new mother Lindsay (Thea Gill), and her lover, no-nonsense attorney Melanie (Michelle Clunie). And then there’s Michael’s cheery waitress mum Debbie (Sharon Gless). http://www.sbs.com.au/queerasfolk/ Cast Gale Harold - Brian Kinney Hal Sparks - Michael Novotny Randy Harrison - Justin Taylor Peter Paige - Emmett Honeycutt Scott Lowell - Theodore 'Ted' Schmidt Thea Gill - Lindsay Peterson Michelle Clunie - Melanie 'Mel' Marcus Sharon Gless - Deborah 'Debbie' Jane Grassi Novotny Sherry Miller - Jennifer Taylor Jack Wetherall - Vic Grassi Robert Gant - Professor Benjamin 'Ben' Bruckner Makyla Smith - Daphne Chanders imdb.com
July 8, 200717 yr Author I've been meaning to start a thread for my fav show I wonder how many BZ members are QAF fans I know u are, Pinky You better post here :|
July 8, 200717 yr Author Yay No problem I can always count on u for QAF support Queer As Folk (UK) vs Queer As Folk (US) Contains bare booty I prefer the US version. Not only coz Brian is but coz his character is taller and adds to the whole irresistible man attracting an innocent teenager effect. The music is better too
July 8, 200717 yr Oh, I remember this scene I like the US version better too---although I've seen very few episodes of the UK version
July 10, 200717 yr You who I think is even a better pairing??? Me and Brian Seriously, I felt Ben and Mike were a good pairing both aesthetically and emotionally
July 11, 200717 yr Author Thanks for the pics Emma_Frost Yay the number of QAF fans on BZ is = 3 You who I think is even a better pairing??? Andrea and Brian Seriously, I felt Ben and Mike were a good pairing both aesthetically and emotionally Agreed Worst couple: Emmett and Ted :|
August 12, 200717 yr Brian is so hot~ I've always think of him as "Samantha" from Sex and the City! LOL
May 18, 200816 yr I just love that show Brain is so hot I also liked Ben, but I started to dislike Michael after a while oO... I can't wait for season 4 to come out on DVD in Germany.
May 23, 200816 yr awwww Queer As Folk! I only watched untill the middle of season 3 or 4 yet though they're all so cute I really like Emmet :wub: Ted I sort of dislike lol and I think Michael and Ben are such a cute couple! i mean Michael is sort of annoying but together they're so lovely. Their relationship I mean.
May 24, 200816 yr I haven't seen all episodes by now - unfortunately I couldn't watch them all because they were aired in the middle of the night and I had to go to school -.- But I hope I can watch the rest soon. In contrast to the others Brian is the character I like the least. I liked him in the very beginning and then started to dislike him more and more...but he's starting to grow on me again^^ I agree with M--- about Ben and Michael (love his mom) Actually, if I could chose a man as my partner/boyfriend, I would chose someone like Ben. His character, his personality is just as I like it. And his looks is not as bad either...hehe I'm thinking about buying the DVD's
May 24, 200816 yr Yeah I have to admit that Brian lost a lot of his appeal to me in the later seasons... He was my favorite character in the first season... I think I lost a little interest in him because he started to care a lot about Justin... and I never liked Justin oO... He was always my least favorite. After season one Ben became my favorite character. I like his personality and that buddhism stuff he belives in. And he is good looking too. But Brian still is the hottest
January 3, 200916 yr Author I just finished watching a QAF episode....the one where Ted hooks up with that "Pity F**k" guy. Emmett cracks me up around 2:28
January 19, 200916 yr Woo I Love Queer as Folk!!! The US version is also much better than the British one!
