Dula Peep Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 The bruises on the legs on the far left one Kim Cattrall dodged one panned reboot show and will likely end up on another Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nano Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Came in here expecting cringe, and that's exactly what I got. Yet another irrelevant reboot of a classic show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadonnasBoyfriend Posted June 5, 2022 Author Share Posted June 5, 2022 not everyone in the cast having the same exact hair color. Also literally every cast member has painted nails. I guess i have to go get my nails painted since im gay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archetype Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 When a casting director tries for realism and relatability but ends up overdoing it to the point that it’s actually not realistic at all. That’s what this is. Hope the show is at least good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellark Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 I think people forget this is a reimagining of QAF, it isn't going to follow the original. Anyways, Peacock is going hard on the marketing because I just saw 2 ads here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have two huge teen shows, Sex Education and Euphoria, that explores narratives of masculine gay men. I would be fine if this show me focused more on “feminine” (aka the large majority) gay men, even though there will still undoubtedly be a masc gay storyline.

Im not in these circles, but this is supposed to be a look into gay culture as it might be now. Maybe this is a time where you need to wake up. Instead of arguing in a reply, maybe realize that people look/act in diverse ways instead of making comments like this on the internet. It’s weird.

Frozen99 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 why can't just make a gay show, we've already seen queer as folk and yeah rebooting it just for the sake of being more inclusive is cringe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Achilles. Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 The way that this show has absolutely no connection to Queer As Folk in terms of cast, location, anything… and the only reason they gave it that title is to try to cash in on the awareness and nostalgia people have for the original series because the entertainment industry simply loathes creating truly original content and will desperately find a way to tie any “new” product into an existing intellectual property with a known brand name. If this had been on HBO, they’d call it a Looking reboot. If it was on NBC, they could have called it a reboot of The New Normal. I’m sure it will end up having as much in common with Queer As Folk as it does with either of those shows. I’m afraid none of these actors will be serving the chemistry and iconicness of Brian and Justin, so best of luck to the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
