Season 1 Review:
It is very well acted, it's got plot twists that rival the best soaps, and the writing improves with each episode (even though they crib some of its best lines directly from the British series)...I'm hooked. [1 Dec 2000, p.106]

Season 1 Review:
There's a lot of good writing and acting here. [1 Dec 2000, p.C10]

Season 1 Review:
Divorced from a believable social context, Queer too often
plays like a voyeuristic tour of gay life that's only interested
in the most outrageous sights. It doesn't have to provide an insight
into every gay person, but it does have to paint a more believable
portrait of these people, which means anchoring them in
a real place and expanding their lives beyond sexual encounters. [1 Dec 2000, p.15E]

Season 1 Review:
Unlike the HBO hits, Queer as Folk isn't great TV. It is interesting TV, entertaining TV, at times very good TV. But not in the same league as The Sopranos. [3 Dec 2000, p.3E]

Season 1 Review:
There are limits in good drama, and there's not enough restraint in Queer as Folk...The series' bigger problem, though, is the three main characters fall short of dynamic. The British original of Queer as Folk featured three riveting actors...The American version, which is set in Pittsburgh, offers three handsome actors of lesser skill and versatility. [3 Dec 2000, p.F5]

Season 5 Review:
Its exploitative, one-sided formula represents a shallow representation of gay culture. ... If the show is remotely watchable it's because the hands involved in its making always manage to sink to heretofore unknown lows, and one could say it's a duty, if not exactly a privilege, to document the fall.

Me marcó 100% por ser la primera serie completamente LGTB que yo vi y la primera donde me pude ver reflejado en mis sentimientos y deseos. Donde me sentí que no era tan diferente y que existía todo un mundo parecido a mí. Para mí fue un ancla de salvación.

Completamente inspiradora en un contexto promiscuo, lleno de un drama gustoso y candente. Momentos de actuación de primera como de lagunas sin fondo.
