They're still out and proud, and in their second season the boys (and girls) of Queer as Folk continued to break ground as the most gay-friendly show on television (sorry, Will and Grace). Some plot lines were a little over the top, others truly heartfelt, but they were never less than entertaining, even during their All My Children moments. Season two opened in the aftermath of the gay-bashing of Justin (Randy Harrison), the young artist who wondered if he'd ever be able to paint or draw again, and went on to face a variety of issues and plotlines as diverse as its characters. Some were timely (Michael negotiating a relationship with new HIV-positive boyfriend Ben), some romantic (lesbians Lindsay and Melanie tying the knot), some new to the show (Emmett embarks on a relationship with a--gasp!--older gentleman), and some, well, far-fetched (how many of you had to wrestle, like Ted did, with starting your own pornographic web site?). While the writing tended to flail about a bit, thankfully coalescing by the season's end, the show continued to be anchored by stellar actors, especially Peter Paige's Emmett, who grew the most during the second season; Michelle Clunie's Melanie, the alternately wry and sweet lesbian who became the show's secret weapon; and, as always, Gale Harold's Brian, the lothario with a heart of tarnished gold. Frustrating, fascinating, exasperating one moment and charming the next, Brian perfectly summed up the guilty pleasures of Queer as Folk, where humanity peeks out every now and then from behind the curtain of fabulous comedy and drama. --Mark Englehart

1) Must have! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I loved the second season!!! It's a bummer that I bought the first two season and then realized that the whole series would be out soon! But all in all for all of you QaF fans this is a must have!2) Excellent!! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
A must see for anyone interested in the gay world..I was hooked from the frist CD of season one..now i can't get enough..3) Awesome Show [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Its a real look at the gay world. Lots of real subject matter. Of course like most tv and movies, there is almost always a happy ending to whatever is going on at the time. If only life could be the same4) straight mom fan [Rating: 4 out of 5]
I just ordered the Second Season of QAF. I can't wait for it to arrive. When they first started airing QAF on Logo, I was instantly hooked. Here was a drama with realistic humor, poignancy and actual intelligence . I'd missed most of the First Season,due to guilt about being a straight woman watching it. ("I'm straight--so what am I thinking?!"--but now I know I'm not the only one) I ordered it anyway. It is awesome. I too do not like all the graphic sex--and some of the boring plot-lines so I simply press the FF button on the remote. The message is generally an uplifting one. My QAF DVDs have become my late-night indulgence when I know it's safe from the kids' viewing. I love Brian and Justin-they steal every scene. -Pretty brave acting if you ask me.5) Im very pleased with this dvd set [Rating: 4 out of 5]
