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.

5.11 F-ing Revenge

Everyone comes to terms with the bombing and what it means to their lives, in very different ways. Brian makes an improbable swing to marriage with Justin, Ben attacks proposition 14 supports, and Drew Boyd speaks at the vigil.

Melanie and Lindsay consider a new future for themselves and their children that doesn’t include Pittsburgh or any of their long term friends and fathers and Ted continues to blame himself for Michael’s injuries and seeks out a form of punishment in a bathhouse. 

It first aired in the US on July 24th, 2005. It was written by Brad Fraser, his final Queer as Folk teleplay. He wrote 8 episodes, produced 12, and was the story editor of 14 episodes.

“Fucking Revenge” was directed by David Wellington. He directed one of our favorite episodes, called “Wherever That Dream May Lead You” which featured a drag king troupe bookending the stories.
