Queer as Folk
I watched the UK version again...on DVD...as I do from time to time. Then I decided to watch the first season of the US version which I hadn't watched since it aired. I remember really liking the first season, but it went way downhill after the first...anyway, after just watching it I still think it really was a good first season and it's disappointing they couldn't keep the quality up. I think it was mainly the storylines...the first season was pretty much the UK version storylines...guess they couldn't get any intriguing storylines of their own!

1. I liked the UK version, not so the American version.
Not even the first season.

4. I think part of why I enjoyed the first season is that it reminded me of my younger days...
When all you thought about was going out and couldn't wait until Thursday because you'd start the weekend then!

6. Weekends were longer than the week! Ah, the good old days!
The Uk version is much grittier.

3. I have the other 4 seasons on hold at the library...
We'll see if I change my mind after watching them again.
