Profile of Queer as Folk

The mood of Queer as Folk is thought provoking, sexual, and sincere. The plot centers around thirtysomething life, gays and lesbians, and friendship. It is a drama TV show. Stylistically, Queer as Folk stars an ensemble cast and is talky. In approach, it is serious and realistic. It takes place, at least partly, at a nightclub. Queer as Folk is set in Pittsburgh. It happens in contemporary times. It is based on a TV series. Queer as Folk is known for being an award winner, critically acclaimed, and a hit series. Note that it includes nudity and sexual content.

Summary of Queer as Folk

Based on the British television series of the same name that became a sensation abroad, Showtime's Queer as Folk quickly became as big a hit in the US as the original was overseas. Focusing on the lives of three gay men (Michael, an insecure 29 year-old, Brian, an ad executive who isn't into relationships, and Justin, a wide-eyed and innocent 17 year old) and their circle of friends, the series has earned both critical praise and scorn for its unflinching look at gay life, love, and sex. Whatever one may think of the show's sexual content, Queer as Folk is an undeniably compelling, funny, moving, and thought provoking series.

Users Reviews

(This review refers to Queer as Folk: Season 1: Disc 1) I was really surprised. This show pushed so many of my buttons. It's been a long time since I have had such mixed emotions about a television show (or movie for that matter) and I don't really...
