Most tv series would take a topic like this last legal wrangle and stretch it over an entire season, but Queer as Folk is more ambitious; the writers recognize that the resolution of one problem is rarely the end of the story, that muddy consequences can be as dramatically compelling as head-to-head conflict. This aggressive and effective plotting, combined with the show's willingness to explore the complexities of every issue--be it assimilation or the coming out of a celebrity--results in an increasing emotional power as the series steamrolls towards its final episode. Some subplots can be silly (Brian has a ridiculous stud-off with a new hot guy in town), the dialogue can sometimes veer from wit to camp cliches, and the omnipresence of sculpted, muscular physiques is absurd and even a little alienating for some viewers, but Queer as Folk's strengths--the compassion and intelligence of the writers, the commitment and nuance of the acting--make this show a true television landmark and a pleasure to watch. And then, of course, there's all that graphic and lovingly photographed sex. Rosie O'Donnell and Cyndi Lauper make guest appearances, and Sharon Gless (Cagney & Lacey) continues her much-loved performance as Michael's mother, Debbie. --Bret Fetzer

un bijou d'emotions Magnifique !!! Inoubliable !!! Tous les personnages sont attachants meme dans leurs pires cotes... On les aime tous : on rit avec eux, on pleure avec eux, on partage leurs espoirs, leur reves, leurs deceptions... leurs vies !!! Quelle tristesse de tous les laisser, apres avoir partage 5 ans de leur existence... meme si elle n'est que pure fiction, on retrouve dans chacun un peu de soi-meme... <
>Bravo et merci a tous ceux qui ont contribue a nous faire vivre ce chef-d'oeuvre.
uh
For as much as I have been addicted to queer as folk and couldn't stop watching until I found out what happenedi n this season, I must say that the ending was one of the biggest disappointments. While the rest of the reasons is very well crafted (fourth and fifth are amazing in character development and i feel that each character really begins to shine through) the ending was such an easy way out. I don't want to give the ending away for those who have yet to see it but, while I understand why it was written that way, I also do not feel that to be true to the characters it was absolutely necessary for Brian and Justin to receive and ending quite like they did. Color me a little disappointed but I was not thrilled. The rest of the season, however, is absolutely fabulous and heart rending. I just wish they would have written a less easy and ambiguous ending.
do not bother
they must have run out of ides because that is what it seemed like watching this season and brian still gets what he wants.
