A North American version starring Gale Harold, Randy Harrison, and Hal Sparks, written and developed by Ron Cowen and Daniel Lipman, aired on Showtime from 2000-2005. This original UK series that inspired the hit American remake follows a colorful group of friends at the heart of Manchesters gay club scene, namely Nathan. Queer As Folk takes place in, and around, the gay club scene in Manchester. The eight-episode series debuted in 1999, and a two-part follow-up aired in 2000. If you like this kind of shows get them while they are still in print, the price is right, right.

They both are good programs in different ways and I enjoy both. I first got the American version of Queer as Folk the complete series now I finally got the UK original version of Queer as Folk. "Queer as Folk" followed the lives of three gay men played by Aidan Gillen, Craig Kelly, and Charlie Hunnam living in Manchester, England. Set in and around the Manchester scene, this groundbreaking Channel 4 drama, written by Russell T Davies, documents the lives and loves of young gay men Stuart. When I first saw this series from the UK I was hooked. Actor and Pose alum Johnny Sibilly has given us the first look at the cast of the all-new Queer As Folk together in one place, and this is a cast. Stephen Dunn ("Closet Monster") is serving as the show's creator, writer, and executive producer (alongside Davies), and he will direct the pilot episode. We’re dying to be a part of this friend group. In April 2021, Variety announced the series was moving forward at Peacock, with the streaming service greenlighting an eight-episode straight-to-series order. The UK Show contains examples of: Age-Appropriate Angst: Nathan reacts rather emotionally after sleeping with and then getting rejected by Stuart. In 2018, Variety broke the news that Bravo was developing the show, but it took three years for the project to come to fruition. Davies, is getting another American reboot.
