Queer As Folk

It is really not necessary to go into detail but this remake of QaF is just like all the other 202X remakes of bigger brands. It's a show featuring a queer group of people in New Orleans with the name Queer as Folk. But other than the name the show has nothing to do with the other two shows.

On the surface they may share similar storylines but only on the surface.

There's no depth to it. The characters are very very shallow and can't be compared to there counterparts from previous incarnations.

The dialogue is as expected flat and shallow like in all new shows these days (Star Trek Discovery and so on) In short: this show is a mess and a waste of time and effort.

This is neither 1/10, nor 10/10, like most of the ratings would want you to believe.

I really wanted to love it, but it is a bit messy, the acting is below par, Brodie is one of the least likeable characters ever, the stories are a bit ridiculous, and "that ending"...

Stop rating things 10/10, no one believes you would think this is PERFECT.

Big fan of the original and the US remake.

This "reboot" or whatever you choose to call it, does not deserve the name of the show. The creators should have named it something entirely different, and maybe it would have been more accepted as it's own show, and not judged and rated with most comparing it to the previous versions.

• Also, it tries way too hard to be "woke" which most shows are doing now, and take every element and overdramatize it.

• Gave it a chance, left me feeling nothing- tried to cram too much into 8 episodes and like most shows like this, prob left viewers that don't know much about the real culture, thinking that all in the lifestyle are like these characters in real life.

The original UK series from 1999 was ground breaking but this, is a bit of a hot mess in comparison. It's like the production is demanding that every letter of the alphabet, and every colour of the rainbow be squished into each and every episode. There are more stereotypes than you can poke a stick at. Have the makers of this show ever heard the phrase, less is more?

The original US version was incredible, I remember watching it at 10pm when it was on. It was intense, the sex scenes were shocking for the time. There was passion. Having watched the first episode of this new adaptation I wish they hadn't. None of the grit and authenticity of the original US version. This "looks" like a MTV music video.
