Review of Queer as Folk

I find this series to be a perfectly short, concise, ridiculous piece of excellent gay cinema. Ridiculous in that it is relentless in its late 90's soundtrack, frantic pacing, and ongoing drive of clubbing meat rack hook ups. It is so clever, so well directed and edited, that the viewer craves what scenes of actual character development, dialogue, and progression that we are dealt. We believe that the lead playboy has spread his seed unto the lesbian coven. We also believe the great bond between him and his longtime buddy. We absurdly believe the drama which revolves around the baby and xenophobic threats (which ironically becomes the one allowable phobia in the piece). It is wonderfully catchy in its editing, its music, and its young actors. To dwell on the story, other than to say that it orbits around one spectacular gay playboy and his loving partner in friendship who unconsciously desires more is to just dwell on too much. That is what it is about. Do they find each other in the end? Well, devote 8 hours to find out, because it is catchy as hell, and puts the bitches of Sex And The City to shame.
