Let's be honest I cried during the entire final episode, a tiny little part of me did want to see Brian and Justin get married and everything but we all knew it was not THEM. I think it would have felt wrong. They couldn't just get married and live in their big house happily ever after, that's just not them. And we loved that about them, we loved how unpredictable they were, how free, wild and passionate they were. I think the writers couldn't have chosen a better ending. It was beautifuly written and perfectly played, and it made sense.
I am a straight girl, but I don't think I've ever been so affected by a show. QaF was not just that show about gay people having sex in public, it was a deep and meaningful representation of life, of love, of friendship, of family, of society, all of that combined in a perfectly structured story. I watched the 5 seasons in 2 weeks, I never got bored. This show made me feel so many emotions, it made me realize so much things about life and love. I just loved it. This show deserves so much more appreciation. And no matter if you're gay, lesbian, straight, transexual, bisexual, asexual or anything else, this show has so much to offer.
My thoughts exactly :) (and I also finished it within 2 weeks, nothing else mattered [I mean other tv shows] ^^ )
AdeleDbt yeah totally agree with you and I watched all 5 seasons in 4 day it seems unbelievable but I did I love it and I'm straight
but i´m so so sure, they will meet again later in life. there´s honestly no doubt for me. but justin has to go his way and brian needs to figure out what his life is like from 30 up and without justin.
(excuse my english, not a native speaker :D)
I don't know. Part of me agrees with you, I really do. And that ending was so tragically beautiful. In a sort of Romeo and Juliet way, star-crossed lovers and all that. I binged on Netflix last month during the winter break. I have not seen that type of chemistry between two characters since when Harry met Sally (a relationship that took 10 years to happen... I thought it might be like that for Justin and Brian). This is the way I see it. Their relationship went through so much crap, so many hurdles, so much heartbreak and they overcame all that. It was unrealistic to me that they would let each other go at the end. Not after all that. And I was shocked too! All over a magazine review. Why the need to move immediately? It did not make sense. I agree though, marriage like that with all the fanfare was not them. But being together was what made them both happy. Brian and Justin complemented each other so well. Whenever they were not together they were out of balance. I think Brian was doing the same thing he did when he had cancer, pushing Justin away because he thought he was holding him back. He thought Justin needed to go and be famous to be happy. I think Brian failed to realize that Justin did not need to go to NY to be an artist, he was already an artist, and he could have kept being one in Pittsburgh. Through the show, I noticed there's one thing Justin really wanted, and that's a life with Brian. I was shocked when they did not stay together (then again they might have later... who knows?). I don't know. why would Justin go to NY alone? Why risk everything for just a review? In the end, I think he left because he thought Brian did not want him. The miscommunication of the decade! Do not get me wrong, I am all for a tragic ending, but in this case, I did not see the necessity of it. Going through all that for 5 years, to then be apart from each other. * Sighs* but then again I am ranting.
AdeleDbt for me was very sad brian & justin but i know that they could not just live apart for each other 😭 but was even sadder for ted
I just finished this show 20 minutes ago. I am bawling at the ending, I became so attached to these characters in such a short time, I want them back!
I'm on season 3 (I'm still mourning Ethan Gold by the way - he was soooo hot damnit) Anyway, I don't know how I'm going to feel about it on the finale but I'm not a fan of the random sex with strangers all days of the week, in bathhouses, back houses and literally anywhere. I'm so shocked the community didn't completely perish from AIDS if they really lived like that.
And it's not homophobic to point it out ok.
I just finished 5 mins ago. I was in tears! Sad Brian dancing on his own... I really thought Justin would join him!
@@haideefindlay5352 yesss so did iiii 😭😭 I was waiting for him to show up 😭😭
I 100% agree with you.
Brian and Justin is the most powerful love story I have ever seen. They don't have to be physically together to be together and it's so beautiful I can't find the words. I'm so happy the creators intended and felt this way too. Thank you, this tv series taught me (and so many others!) so much
It's 2021 and this series will STILL and ALWAYS have a very special part in my heart and life!! Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone involved!!!!
2021 my first time watching. Loveeee it
@@Geminicricketi 2022 Same !!!!!!
Abs
I’ve nearly finished it. It better then the u.k version.
2023 my first time watching it and I loved it so much 😭😭🫶🫶
randy still looks a teen boy
sing sing RIGHT OMG I FEEL LIKE HES BARELY AGED
0BleuFever0 30 something i think...
sing sing Yes, he's so sweet
maria kara He’ll be 41 on November the 2nd! X
Because he has a byby face
Does anyone else just wish they were besties with Peter Paige or is it just me?
djmixnmagic He’s so cute & funny!!
Me too.. I could listen to him tells stories forever.
ann m. Aunt Lula taught him well
Estefanía Fariñas
Who it that?
ann m. Emmett's aunt ☺
Ben hasn't changed even a bit!!!
true!
Ruimeng Pang 100% right
Ruimeng Pang so true
Neither Justin
true
Randy still looks 100% like Debbie’s Sunshine. His smile makes me feel happier just looking at it.
Jesus please do an episode with Gale and Randy get back together. Please!
Rebecca Brown right !!!!! I would die for them to do an new season
Nah. Gale and the Doc! That would be fucking hot
I hope they reboot this show.......pleeeeeeeeaaaasssse
@@MegaPupsilein Hasnt Brian taken away enough things from Michael? 😂
I mean David, not Ben! Ben is the professor and Michael´s husband. David was the doc but their relationship only lasted a few months so Brian wouldn´t "take him away" from Michael...
Peter Paige is fucking hilarious I love him and I love Emmett. I love all of them
JackyK yes! I would love to spend and afternoon with him, he made this interview so much fun!
It is so comforting to know that the creators intended Brian and Justin to always be together in the end.
I love that Gale is leaning on Randy's chair or has his arm along Randy's chair during most of this. It's like he needs a little comfort from him.
In interviews where it's just the two of them, it's funny to see that Randy is the dominant one between them.
@@FeelTheLack i see where you're coming from but i think it's more the factor that Randy is an extrovert and Gale is more introverted and quiet, he still has quite a dominant energy to himself.
Laura Devine I think Randy is an introvert too. I think Gale has a brilliant mind and has trouble articulating his thoughts and Randy in general is very articulate so that might be why Gale defers to him in these events.
Randy is deffo an introvert. Those two are by far the most introverted of the cast. One of them has to take the lead when it's just the two of them and it just is usually Randy since he's more neurotic and quicker, and Gale will probably revert to saying something crazy and otherworldly.
I'd love to give Gale a little support....*wink*
Holy shit Randy has the same EXACT face as like 15 years ago
Oh my God, I loved this show. My boyfriend at the time could not stand when I watched it. And my friends thought I was weird for watching and enjoying it. I wish Showtime would bring it back and with the same characters and actors.
Golden Aura saaame! All my friends Think im weird... 😂
People are so stupid. This show is so good and they're just saw "gay" thing lol
Hopefully one day it wouldn't be considered weird to watch
Hi, why could not your then boyfriend not stand the show? Thanks.
im a straight mom with a 13 yr old son. when he asked why i was watching this show, I told him because it was one of the best damn shows ive ever seen. we had a good conversation about seeing the lgbtq community as equals. I don't ever want my son to look down at someone for who they are. he admitted there was a boy at school that everyone teased for being gay, and felt bad for following the crowd. Now they're best friends. He said "i mean he wears glitter in his hair, but that's not everything i see when i look at him". I'm glad i got through to my son, but he wasn't the only one that wasn't aware of the issues the lgbtq community faced. I watched this to open my mind as well. And made my super straight fiance watch it with me. I think he was in to it more than I was! If you guys made a comeback on Netflix that would be awesome. just please have the original cast in there somewhere, otherwise it wouldnt be the same! love yas! -Debbie
Wow thank you, there need to be more moms like you 😢👏🏽
This cast represents "regular" gay guys in today's woke fool world this cast would never work!!
Gale actually has a wicked talent for comedy. His natural delivery and timing is really natural.
10 years and the cast looks like time froze.
exactly what I thought..wow
Not Emmett though.
daveheel right !!
18:16 - 18:52 I'M DEAD. x'D Randy: "It was just such a traumatic time for me." My poor sunshine. :'D I love how gale is just face-palming at what he said. Haha, they're so cute! This was such a lovely panel to watch, it would be absolutely amazing if QAF had a reboot. I know everyone would love to see the original characters, especially since so much time has passed since then. Even one season or a movie would be amazing, i just miss this show so much. Anyways, i'm very happy with the amount of work and time that was put into every season. This show is very dear to my heart and always will be.
gale harold just gets sexier the older he gets
gugusgigi agree
Like a fine wine, he gets sexier the older he gets.
I’m not a fan of the beard, it hides his beautiful face but I feel like he grows it because he doesn’t want to be ogled.
@@FeelTheLack I feel that too. That beard ain't it. But he is a lowkey person in general may be he doesn't want the kind of extra attention his face gets all the time.
@@sg_1541 I did hear from a behind the scenes hair and makeup person that during the show's run he was constantly wanting an excuse for 'Brian' not to shave, so there's that little nugget of info too! Maybe it's a bit of both hiding and can't be bothered lol
Even if it were just a single episode, i'd really love to see these guys as their characters again :')
The writers of the show showed us multiple times over the course of the series that Brian and Justin always reunited eventually. Just because they call off the engagement doesn't mean that they "Broke up" or stopped loving each other-they just weren't the marrying type. I think a lot of people think that they broke up because they didn't get the traditional "happily ever after" that the other couples on the show got.
since the show ended executive Producers Daniel Lipman and Ron Cowen have stated in multiple interviews (including at the end of this video) that of course Brian and Justin would see each other again. They wouldn't live apart forever- that's also somthing the show showed us. If Brian and Justin didn't break up when Justin went to Hollywood why would they when he went to New York? that never made sense to me. The show ended not their love. The point of their relationship was that it transcended barriers other couples traditionally defined their relationship by.
Gale keeps blushing! 💚😂
He is so shy
I watched this show years ago when I was in high school and I remember the ending being so tough for me because they weren’t together. Being older now, Brian saying that even if it’s next week, next month, or never again, it’s only time is just so beautiful to me. Time can’t affect their love for each other and the bond they have and I have no doubt that they found each other again.
same, it's something you only understand once you get older.
I just see it from that perspective, thanks
Randy Harrison looks really young for his age.
GALE IS ONE GORGEOUS MAN.
No kidding
This show will always have a special place in my heart
Bet you anything if Gale AKA Brian were to shave he would look the same as before. Don't get me wrong he looks like time froze but he would look more like Brian if he did. I LOVE QAF I WISH IT WOULD COME BACK😭😭😭🤧🤧
I can't believe Gale Harold is 47 yo!!! he's hot!!!!
47 isn't that old.
Jakrit Muangkiaw yes he is I am his age than god all men aren’t trolls already
😄 yeah
49 now
50 now
Like Gale always says....Kiss and move passionately and move like you mean it....Gale and Randy (Brian and Justin) did it so well. Love them and they really should have a reboot.
"I mean, I can play coy with the best of them, but Jesus Christ... I mean... on the cover of "DAH", magazine, I'M GAY!!!" rofl this man is so precious
"There was never any thought in our minds that they would never see each other again" -_- An extra scene of them actually seeing each other again would have helped to make us see that *smh*... Maybe Brian showing up in NY and when they see each other they would smile, and then roll credits *end*... That would have helped.... God.... I made my bf watch the show, and even he was annoyed, he was all "After all that drama you would think they would stay together".
Or have Justin show up at the re-opening of Babylon. It wouldn't have taken much to make us happy and know there was some hope.
skyelight oooooo
QAF is the best show that I've ever watched in 2022. I'm in relief when I found out this interview even though I'm not very satisfied with the ending, Brian and Justin. I want a sequel of QAF with the original cast. I don't care their age. I just want to see them together again.
"With its graphic nature" then everybody looks at Gale😂😂😂 LMAO because all of its nature are represented by Brian
Joker's little God of chaos well said
i mean u know this is just crazy, a show that still has fans and audience and is as good as new after 15 goddamn years...u can see it through.the casting was amazing they can do it even right now Randy is 38 in this and he still can play the role of an 18 cray teenager and Peter is not an inch changed in personality AND in age and lets not forget Gale that he is perfectly the right person.. a show that is still remembered and watched and honored.nothing but only a great true and hoest show can do that..and i think QAF is something that these actors gonna live with forever, I was 5 at the time of filming and now im 20 and im here to see them and to hear them and when I see their faces it's like nothings changed and its like it happened yesterday and that lightens my heart up and im sure 15 years from now 5 year olds of today will come here and will say 30 years ago a unique and brave and amazing show happened and we're just sorry that we were late to watch it first hand..and i think thats a blessing..I appriciate them all from the depth of heart
How tragic I always am ending my day by watching this show. Every fucking day. Never get bored of this show.
It's dec 2023 and QAF is still as impactful and relevant as ever. I'm in a reddit thread for BL fans and the name of the series regularly pops up. I had first watched and loved the British version, so when the US version was announced to be aired on the then unique cable channel for French TV I thought it would probably be a sanitized, more commercial series. By the end of episode 1 I had a complete change of mind. I got divorcerd very soon after and could not afford cable tv any longer, so I had to ask my sis to buy the HVS then the Dvd boxes for my birthday or for Xmas. I educated my teen kids with them. They thanked me several times for the very lgbtqi+ education I gave them, but also for raising the bar high in the expectations for quality content in the series they choose. I was particularly in awe of the prom episode. I loved the angst, the humour, the cringe, the romance and the raunchiness alike. Being heartbroken, an impoveridhed mother of two and a fresh social outcast would have been much harder without the help of QAF wonderful characters.
They all didn't change much. it was just like a flash. I can't believe that it was 10 years from now. I've always loved Gale's voice. i still do now. Btw, randy looks even hotter than before.
I am forever grateful for this being made, My uncle was gay and sadly passed of AIDS in 1996 unfortunately medication was only just being discovered but he died a painful death. I also have gay cousins who lived through the struggles of acceptance and now I am a mum of a gorgeous daughter (mtf transition). She is the strongest person I know and she is only 15, and so many younger generation accept her with open arms whilst its the parents that have issues. We are blessed that we have amazing specialists and programs like this to make life a little easier. ❤️
I love this show really very much... watch it over and over and over... one of the best shows there are imho...
To answer the question (a female fan here), I watched this show cz the characters are so very awesome, the stories were amazing and I always thought that they portrait the emotions, the feelings and what they were going through so so very well. At ard the same time there was also The L Word, but I always loved Queer as Folk much more...
"the combination of my bird-like voice and my not revealing of my true identity..."
god i love gale (21:51)
Randy Harisson Sunshine hasn't changed at all, still as cute as he is on the show!
This show changed me in a very positive way ❤❤❤thanks you all for this and I really need more 😭😭❤
PLEASE PLEASE!!! DO a Re boot! another 5 years would be awesome! It could be about Gus and Jenny and their lives and maybe somehow, Brain and Justin move forward in their relationship cause NOW, it IS legal for them to wed IF they choose to do so...I just wish there would be a re boot because THERE ARE SO many other issues Gay adults and Teens STILL have too face and sadly homophobia still is rampant, and QAF changed and brought to light SO many things that a lot of people were not aware of, So, I hope and pray for a reboot. ATX Festival, thank you for this amazing video.
Yaoi fun fun OMG THATS SUCH A GOOD IDEA
I loved this show from beginning to end. OMG what an honor it must have been to be a part of it.
I was about a year old when this show first came out, and I was 6 years old when it ended. I found this show at 23 years old and I fell in love. I finished the show about an hour ago and I was balling at the end. It was such an amazing show and the fact that it still holds up to this day is just incredible! ❤
i am English and saw the original British version when it first came out and i absolutely loved it, then later when i heard that the USA were going to make their own version of the show i thought that it would be crap, and that they would spoil, what was to me at the time, perfection and so i never bothered watching the USA version until last year and OMFG !!!! i absolutely LOVED it !!!! i became obsessed with it and with the characters etc, every role was acted to perfection, every scene that was written was perfect and the camera work was perfect too ! everything about the show was perfect to me. the characters had me in tears, they had me laughing, they had me wanting to reach out to them and hug them or help them or to even just spend time with them. all of the main cast did brilliant jobs of portraying the emotions and feelings of their characters even down to the look in their eyes ! Gale and Randy were so good at playing their roles and so convincing that i, along with many other people, wanted them to be in a real life relationship because they just HAD to be together for real to be able to convey such emotional and realistic performances. thank you for posting this video of the panel, they answered a few questions on thoughts that i had had. now i think that i will have to go and re-watch the series and also watch the USA version of Shameless too ! ps, i will always have a very soft spot for Charlie Hunnam though but i also love randy too !
Thank you for a mature and objective analysis. I love the British version, but I honestly feel the American version expanded the story. And yes, I think Charlie Hunnam was pretty darn good, too.
I'm nearly 14. I watched Queer as folk for the First time when I was 11. I'm trans and I think that qaf is the best Show ever. I wish more people would know the show. It showed me to be Proud of who I am. So thanks to everyone who was included in Queer as Folk ❤️
Emmett was a delight to watch. What an amazing character Paige played. He was so good and loyal to his friends and selfless and sweet even when he was put down.
Crying so much because I miss them all a lot. Please, someone, bring this family back to the screen
OMG! Please bring the original casts back, I love them so much especially Gale&Randy(Brian&Justin). I watched this series in February 2022 and now I'm a new fan of QAF. I do want the original casts back in new seasons even the ages are different that is really doesn't matter.
I love the QAF cast. Please bring QAF back. Please!!!
Omg the prom episode......OMFG......I was crying but then I went into OVERLOAD when I saw BRIAN crying in the hospital. THAT is when I knew that Justin penetrated that "heart of stone" and transformed it into flesh and blood.......
OMG how beautiful was that ending???? this show saved my teen years i got so emotional watching this my goodness
Gabi P
H
i don't think we'd have The Fosters without QAF
I saw this show in just 1weak 😀 84 episodes in just 7 days and I needed more 💗
Yasoo oo me in 10 days😂
Me too in one week 😂😂❤
Wayyyyyy..... wow!
4 days :)
Where did you find it to watch it
And few weeks later..I'm here again :D This time I observed Gale and Randy ;) Just cute :D When they exchange looks and when they're laughing
You right they are so cute.
And i realise that gale is always leaned toward randy and hanging on randy chair...
I find it so interesting that in real life, Randy seems like the more dominate one between them. I also think that is because Gale doesn't really like public speaking and Randy knows that about him and tries to be supportive.
In their interviews Gale has explain they're friends since the beginning of their scenes , and have a lot of commun , film, music , and when you hear Robert talking about the meeting for the scene , i think Randy and Gale haven't the same relation , they've more easy to talk
I watched this show back when it premiered and every time I find it on plus on Netflix. I don’t care who you are, this was and is the best show ever made and I will watch it a million time if I get that chance. It’s so much more than a show about being gay, it’s about human relationships. The good, the bad and the ugly. I cried, I laughed, I worried over the characters. I loved the characters as if they were my very own friends. Brian Kinney will always be the most beautiful man ever. The ending had me sobbing.
No matter how many times this show is remade, they will never even come close to this original US version with these specific actors. I recruited friends to watch who initially balked at it but then as much as I loved it, my friends would start asking when was the next episode. You guys were so authentic, so real, so very lovable. All of you, every one in your special way.
i love gale and randy. love the show so much. watching it over and over, and will not get tired of it. i wished they would bring it back.
would love for a reboot and brian and justin living togther happily.
I'm so glad I watched this through to the end. It makes my heart so happy to know that they didn't write the final episode as and ending of the Brian and Justin relationship. It is true that their relationship never followed a "normal" path, and what they said made sense.
gales voice is so nice omg
They're all such nice people...
always love you QAF team (05.08.23)
I wasn't bawling my eyes out because Brian and Justin weren't getting married, it was more to do with me thinking we were just going to have to assume they broke up, that after all they've been through, it's all over...no thanks.
They don’t married but that doesn’t mean they broke up
I lived in a small baptist hick town. I was 14 years old. I happen to see the pilot episode the night it first it aired. Thank God! This show changed my heart. I realized that gay people were people too. I went from thinking so wrong to an understanding and acceptance I didn’t know was possible.
"Hi, I'm Peter, you'll be blowing me." I lost it omfg LMAO that's probably the funniest part lol
lol i love how peter paige tells stories
also, despite how the producers feel about the amount of seasons, i personally would not mind 6th or even 7th season. for me, the ending was unsatisfactory because brian and justin´s storyline was left open. i don´t care much for their wedding/marriage, but it ended not knowing whether they will be still together when justin went to NY. in our minds we can say that sure they will, but what would satisfy me would be to see it on screen. they could´ve just fastforwarded it to the time when justin came back and they reunited, implying they will stay together forever. all that it would took would be a couple of extra scenes to that finale and it would be perfect.
Or Brian moving to NY.. he always wanted to live there.. and I agree with you on the wedding/marriage part, it doesn't matter, just a paper.. they should have moved together, it wouldn't be any different than the life they had in Pittsburgh.
Anna Sári That's true! But I always wanted them to be in a (don't know how to say it) REAL relationship, just the two of them and not having sex with any other guy. So if they admit they love each other and have such a relationship, it's just the perfect solution, at least for me.
Melody Lightheart you mean exclusive (or committed) relationship. but we saw at the end that even tho Brian turned off his bachelor party and wanted to just go home with Justin, he did this only because he was willing to be whoever Justin wanted him to be. But as the producers of the show said here, when Justin finally had what he wanted - a monogamous Brian, he realized that he fell in love with a lion not a house cat.
Dom Thanks for the word (German girl tries to write in English; )) and I totally agree with you accept the thing about the lion and the house cat. I know the producer said so, but in my opinion Justin still loves Brian, because he's changed some of his habits, but not his whole personality. He will always be the (sometimes too) honest, crazy, funny guy he's always been. I mean, they both changed a lot through all these seasons, but that is what's happening all the time in the whole world, and it's nothing bad but exciting.
yeah sure that Justin still loved Brian. i don't think that's what they had in mind when the producers said that Justin fell in love with a lion not a house cat. but more like that Justin doesn't want Brian to sacrifice his identity to make Justin happy. i think that it was even said in the show "that's not love, that's sacrifice".
sure that they both grew and changed in some ways throughtout seasons, but Brian still didn't change in regards to fucking around. he didn't want to change that from his own will, he only did it to please Justin. i think that's why Justin didn't like this, he probably would welcome this change if it would be Brian's own decision, and not something that he's practically forced to do to not lose Justin again.
When I watched the episodes that dealt with the bombing of the club I always thought that of all the subjects covered it was the least likely to actually occur...Then the shooting at the Pulse club happened and I watched in disbelief and shock as I never thought that this could actually happen.....
Damn, Robert Grant hasn't aged a BIT. That's what exercise and bodybuilding does for ya! And I thank Netflix for having this show on there. That and The L Word. Showtime really delivers the best and most unapologetically realistic shows on tv.
D.M. Ohe I'm actually researching TLW rn and ICA! both shows were AMAZING and I say that as someone who's 100% straight.
I just recently watched this Show & I LOVED IT. OMG. Brian Kinney and Justin were PERFECT. I loved every single character. My boyfried was like " What in TF are you watching" LMAO. I loved every character.
qaf was big part of my teen years. i wasn’t around when it was created i think i watched in 2014 or something i was 13. and it was so amazing and i still watch it and it still feels the same!! rewatching interviews panels makes me want to cry. gale/ brian was always my fav character and actor and i miss him lol
Long random comment, but I’m under emotions)
I just ended rewatching it after 10 years. Few years ago I tried rewatching, but got distracted after season 1 and didn’t comeback. Now I manage to fulfill it in week and half. I’m so happy that somewhere in 2012-2014 I found it. Still in school, in county with zero acceptance of lgbtq. It was whole new world for me, world where I fit.
I remember first time trying to watch it after reading Wikipedia page about this series. I found some crappy quality first episode and after few minutes give up. I didn’t speak any English back then, so probably it was only one with Russian translation. But plot seems so intriguing and new, that I come back and watch.
Oh, I’m so in love with characters. I’m not really remembering how much I noticed back then about Brian and Justin true depth of filings. But now I was drowning in their little steps toward each other, protectiveness. I’m so relieved that their relationship only seems better now, when I’m older. Cause recently I checked another series that I watched in school and I really started to like another character and dislike my fav from back then.
But not here)
Still bitter that we got open ending. But I’m sure the only way this should have ended: with happy and contended Brian and Justin together)
Peter is one of my favourite person EVER !!!
I still love that show. Still watch it once in a while.
To this day, no other show has taken a spot in my heart. I'm watching Pose now (Everyone watch Pose) and I love it to pieces but this show... Queer As Folk... This show raised me. It changed the foundation of who I was as not only a chick... It changed who I was as a human being
I have to say the QAF will always be the best show ever but decades later it made me love Billy Porter and all his shows especially Pose.
I also loved this show. Glad to know the cast is aging well and doing well.
THE FOSTERS IS PETER'S SHOW OMG ??? I LOVE THAT SHOW !!!
Wolfsbane Funken Right
Wolfsbane Funken RIP TO IT I STILL HAVENT SEEN THE REAT OF S5... 🙄😧😭☺️💜
Peter Paige is an international treasure
Wish we could hear more from the cast and their experience and not just the writers.
I will always have this tv show in my heart. In 2001 i was a teen with friends like me.
I’m so stuck on this series and I’m a straight woman! I love it so much and can’t stop watching it over and over again! PLEASE bring it back with all the main characters!!
Another thing that made this series so great was the music!! Now, the only place you can find the original music is on the original DVD set because they had to change the music due to copyright issues with streaming services. If you're a die-hard fan of the series, you definitely notice it.
It was super groundbreaking for America. The sex scenes still are remarkably explicit 20 years later. I loved this Show I recently signed up for Showtime and marathon watched it. Very few things are dated but mostly preserved relevancy.
Thanks for uploading! I loved this show! Reminds me of when I came out when I was younger. A lot of memories!
Peter Paige is so funny and a brilliant actor!! PLEASE DO A REBOOT!!!!
I was living in LA and working for Warner Music when this show was broadcast. I was one of the founders of the LGBTQ+ Employee Affinity group at Warner Brothers Studios. Because of that affiliation, we were privileged to get the creators, head writer and 3 of the stars of the show to come to the studios one week before the series finale and let us watch the last episode early. It was great to hear them talk about the show beforehand and answer questions. The producers actually had to make a one-off copy for our viewing so we felt very special. Growing up in a conservative town of 150 people in rural Illinois, the impact of this show on my own acceptance of who I was and the sheer variety of members of our community was just incredible. So I thank them all for taking the risks and creating a show that even my straight friends became invested in the characters and storyline.
Just finished watching the series and had to watch this panel! Can't believe it's over!

1:08:11 THEY NEED! :'( WE NEED IT...
To come back and revisit this reunion in 2023 and realize that we, the gay community, have made huge strides in human rights issues. However; we now face an uncertain period where none of us could forsee a concept of Christian Nationalism. Somehow along our path we lost sight of a danger to civil rights and even our lives. The finger points to people outside our circle who do Not wish nor want to act in the way the Christian faith should behave toward one another. It does work for them, for people who refuse to see someone else's life as having any meaning. We are probably facing our greatest challenge now, as opposed to several years ago. Let us just hope our purpose remains as our hope for a better future finally comes to pass. Thank you!
This show will always be special to me and so many others. I remember being a closeted kid secretly watching it every week lol. I literally learned so much.
Thanks for posting this. Qaf us version is such an amazing show. Powerful and still very relevant , always will be.
This was excellent. I watched Queer As Folk through my snowy screen because I didn't have Showtime and it came in slightly and knew Hal Sparks and wanted to see this show. Recently Spectrum had a free preview time with On Demand and got to see several episodes of season 1 and I want to watch the whole series over again.
