It was a show unlike one we had ever seen before. Showtime floored everyone with the premier episode of Queer As Folk and has us hooked for 5 seasons. We wondered if Brian would ever get over himself and admit how much he was in love with Justin. We watched Michael go through guy after guy all the while having a huge crush on best friend Brian, as Emmet became a cyber porn star and married the "pickle" guy. And poor Ted, he had it rough.
I was always a fan of Brian and I will be forever. That guy was so sexy, I would have never been able to say no to him. However, when Justin stumbled upon violin player Ethan in the second season, my heart skipped a beat at this sexy musician. Of course he was just a hurdle in the Brian/Justin love story, but I thought he deserved honorable mention.
But this was a show that was real. It dealt with gays and lesbians trying to make it in a straight persons world. It tried to get the fact across that we are all alike, we all have the same problems with our jobs, with our friends and especially with our lovers. Gay or straight, life is a bitch.
Queer As Folk seemed to run out of steam towards the end, which lead to the finale in 2005. Nothing ever came along to fill the void left by our Liberty Diner crew. We will never get a reunion movie like HBO gave Sex And The City, though Lord knows it would be amazing. Guess we will have to live in the past. Here are some of the best moments of Queer As Folk. Obviously I couldn't put them all, but if you feel I missed one let me know!
