Review(s): DVD Queer as Folk - The Complete Fourth Season (Showtime)
SEASON 5
I have been reading on the internet and heard what season 5 is about. I dont get showtime and have only started watching QAF a couple weeks ago. I have all FOUR seasons though. And with what happens in season 5...i dont know if i want it when it comes out. The stories are depressing. Brian gets SICK! that sucks. I heard one rumor it was AIDS but i also heard it was just HIV. And Brian and Justin dont end up together even though they should. and i also heard that they kill off Hunter. I know it is only a show but still....I know this has nothing to do with season four but i had to vent somewhere. Thanks for listnening and now you can say i wasnt helpful.
Queer As Folk Is Not Just For Us Queers
I Have All 3 Season So Far And I Have Been Trying To Get Season 4 And The Cheapest Place Is Ebay I Got It For $9.99 They Are So Much Money For Just 1 Season But When You GEt It You See Why They Show Is Just....Amazing! When I Watch This Show I Really Get Into It And I Feel The Emotions I Go Through When I Step Outside My Door HAving People Calling ME A "Fag" And Making Fun Of Me But The Way They Stand Up And Protest ..I Love Debbie She Would Be An Awesome "FAG HAG" lol I Got My Sisters Into The Show Also They Love Brain (Go Figure) And They Were Bummed When I Told Them After Watchin Season 3 That i Didnt Have Season 4 Yet And They Are The Ones Buying It For Me!
Best season since season 2.
QAF season 4 starts by tying up the two major loose ends of the season 3 finale/cliffhanger, that being Hunters mother coming back to make him in to a prostitute once more, and Brian losing everything he has to fund a series of ads to defeat Stockwell in the mayoral race. These are tired up well and we get the most diverse set of subplots since season 2, including Justins involvement with a gay vigilante group, Ted recovering from his Meth addiction that came on suddenly at the end fo season 3, Brians cancer, and the unfortunate death of Vic.
The season ends on a less dramatic note than any of the previous ones, with fewer loose ends left hanging than before. Another great aspect is that the series FINALLY got a good opening sequence.

Drama ruled in a big way on the third season of Queer as Folk, as the gay men and women of Pittsburgh rode a roller coaster of emotional and personal upheavals that would make a regular soap-opera cast blanch. Budding comic book artist Justin (Randy Harrison) finally left longtime lover Brian for a chance at ecstasy--and not a bit of agony-with a charming violin player. Emmett (Peter Paige) finally came face-to-face with his affection for friend Ted (Scott Lowell), only to have Ted's growing drug habit get in the way of their happiness. Lesbians Melanie (Michelle Clunie) and Lindsay (Thea Gill) decided to have another baby, whose father would be... Michael (Hal Sparks), whose nesting with hunky Ben (Robert Gant) is rudely interrupted by runaway Hunter (Harris Allan). And as...

Despite a slow weird beginning I enjoyed this movie more than words can say. It was funny weird, thought pervoking and it left me feeling really good despite some real life situations that were not always happy. I could identify with the mormon dude since I know well his pain having come from a strict hardcore Bible Thumping BAPTIST family myself. Trust me "Baptist's" are no more accepting or tolerant of gays or gay friendly folk than the religious neanderthals seen in this movie.
Despite the religious homophobic downers this was my kind of movie it had a happy ending I could honestly beleive. This movie left me happy and filled with hope. The unrated version has the steamier sex scene but what you see is pretty tame by todays standards. I would not recommend this...

They're still out and proud, and in their second season the boys (and girls) of Queer as Folk continued to break ground as the most gay-friendly show on television (sorry, Will and Grace). Some plot lines were a little over the top, others truly heartfelt, but they were never less than entertaining, even during their All My Children moments. Season two opened in the aftermath of the gay-bashing of Justin (Randy Harrison), the young artist who wondered if he'd ever be able to paint or draw again, and went on to face a variety of issues and plotlines as diverse as its characters. Some were timely (Michael negotiating a relationship with new HIV-positive boyfriend Ben), some romantic (lesbians Lindsay and Melanie tying the knot), some new to the show (Emmett embarks on a...

They're here, they're queer, and they make Sex and the City look like a demure tea party. Showtime's quintessentially American Queer As Folk--based on the British miniseries--pours on copious amounts of hot and steamy sex. This slick (and slickly entertaining) series shares the same basic concept as its British counterpart--centering on a group of gay friends living in a primarily industrial city--but after that, all bets are off. Whereas the British version focused on the gritty, realistic drama of its characters, the American QAF is a glossy, fun soap opera that occasionally tackles big issues but never lets you forget that life at times can be a party, and you shouldn't be one of those poor suckers starving to death. A good part of the show's charm lies in its... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Queer As Folk - Hal Sparks DVD Release Date: Released the 08 January 2002 Usually ships in 24 hours

No other show captures the ebb and flow of day-to-day human relationships like Six Feet Under, which chronicles the dysfunctional lives of the Fisher family, who run a funeral home in Los Angeles. Though the overt theme of the series is mortality--every episode opens with the death of someone whose body will end up on the Fishers' slab--but the third season, even moreso than the first two, explores the intertwining struggles for connection and for personal freedom. The season starts slowly but compellingly, laying out the changes in the Fishers' lives. Nate (Peter Krause, We Don't Live Here Anymore) has married and has a baby. David (Michael C. Hall) is settling into tense domesticity with his angry boyfriend. Claire (Lauren Ambrose) has launched into art school. Ruth...
