Still Queer as Folk

Hosted ByPatrick Randall & Matt Dominguez

A critical review and analysis of Showtime's Queer as Folk presented by two bitchy and sometimes jaded gay guys. Listen in as we take apart the stories, screenplays, characters and aspects of the show that haven't aged well. Nothing is off limits, be it music, costumes, sets, or acting. We're huge fans of the show, but you would probably never know it after listening to Still Queer as Folk. All five seasons are covered, recorded between 2018-2021. Check out the Still Queer as Folk UK podcast for our take on the original.

4.04 Escalating Violence

Justin and Cody…escalate their crusade against straight people and casual, verbal gay bashing, this time with the help of a gun. When Justin is reluctant to escalate, Cody takes him to church where he witnesses a prejudicial minister railing against homosexuality with the usual chapter and verse from Leviticus. In one of three story runners, Emmett is having lots of outdoor sex…until a monsoon overtakes Pittsburgh leading him to escort a howling wolfman into Melanie and Lindsay’s attic.

After Vic moves out, a bored Debbie begins to smother Michael by insinuating herself into his life, only to run afoul of Hunter’s social services monitor. Ted is still serenading diners with his renditions of Italian opera. After criminally hacking into his former employers’ accounting system and after splitting the checks at a senior citizen birthday dinner, he realizes that his true calling in life is…..being an accountant and he accept’s Brian’s offer to join Kinnetik. Melanie is still pregnant and still not taking it easy when the lawsuit of their lesbian friends finally comes to trial.
