“They really. Fucked their sperm donor's mother. After she sang bar karaoke Maybe This Time. While her gf was back home finally emotionally bonding to their children. Icon, icon, icon, etc”
I…sorry to be dumb but. Context?
Peacock (nbc streaming app) did a reboot of the show Queer as Folk. It got canceled after one season.
MAJOR CONTENT WARNING. The show starts with a shooting at a gay bar, and follows the community recovering from that trauma. Which I think might have contributed to its lack of popularity (every person I told that to went from "maybe I'll watch" to "oh. no thanks.") Which is FAIR.
But I watched it and overall enjoyed it. But I also just enjoy the experience of watching gay ensemble shows like the L Word just to see what they try (and often fail) to do. They're like little petri dishes to me.
But when I got to this moment. Referenced in that post. I was so overwhelmed. I had to watch it standing up. I went for a walk afterwards to calm down. I desperately scoured the internet to find someone talking about it but even my beloved autostraddle fell through. So it feels like something only I experienced. And I remember that it happened and I go crazy.

If you put an exclusively-gay male character together romantically with a transwoman, you don't get to claim your piece of media is progressive or trans-friendly.  Particularly when that exclusively-gay male character not only knew and liked the transwoman pre-transition, but dead-named her like 5 minutes ago.

CG as Shar in Queer as Folk (2022)
“I was on this very private journey within myself as far as my identity, gender identity, etc., go, and there seemed to be a little standstill on how to let people in on what I’ve been working on with myself. And then Shar comes along, this person that I greatly identify with, and everything just seemed to align in a very particular, very special way.” ©

TOP 10 TV SHOWS I WATCHED IN 2022
1. PANIC on amazon prime
Tumblr media
i watched ‘panic’ at the very beginning of 2022, and have since rewatched it twice. i’m still surprised how it stuck with me and became one of my favorite shows, because typically i prefer more light-hearted stories. 
the idea of teenagers playing this high stakes life-threatening game is so intriguing. the mystery behind who started and runs this tradition adds so much suspense. there’s also the additional layer of poverty and family issues that’s pushing the main character. it’s so interesting to explore the characters’ motivations, their reactions to pressure. it makes for a colorful complex story. and, of course, what sells it is the main romance. the chemistry between the characters is off the charts!! (not me thinking i wouldn’t ship them before seeing the show phaha). 
even though ‘panic’ was cancelled after season 1 (which, sadly, is true for most of my favorite tv shows), i believe there’s a satisfying finality to the season that makes it work as a stand alone story.
2. QUEER AS FOLK on peacock
Tumblr media
pure queer joy is what this show is. i’ve only experienced this level of happiness while watching “genera+ion” (which is my favorite show ever). and yes, “queer as folk” is more adult because - duh - it’s about adults, and one teen character. in a lot of ways it’s about forming your community and keeping it safe. it takes on serious issues, the characters are messy and make mistakes, yet it feels so warm and comfortable, like a home.
i’ve never seen the original show so i’m judging this show from a non-reboot perspective (which i’m pretty sure it is anyway, even though you can make parallels between some characters, it’s a new different story).  
trigger warning: there’s a mass sh**ting scene in the first episode (it’s not very graphic).
3. HEARTBREAK HIGH on netflix
Tumblr media
the new aussie it show, move over h2o just add water! okay i’m joking, but heartbreak high really took over the world as it should have! it’s a diverse well-written gen z teen drama with amazing fashion. 
what you can expect: a lot of dramaaa, secrets & unexpected twists, sex scenes that don’t sexualize teenagers, actual ace representation (i’ve only seen it done this well in “genera+ion”), probably the best autistic representation i’ve ever seen, exploration of some dark themes (assault, police brutality) that are unfortunately a part of reality for a lot of teenagers, beautiful friendships and romantic relationships, teen angst and rebellion.
i fell in love with these characters and their dynamics, i can’t wait for season 2! plus, it turns out there was a lot of australian things i didn’t know about, so it was very cool to see australian culture represented in this fun bright series. 
4. REBELDE on netflix
Tumblr media
look at all these pretty faces and tell me you don’t want to know more about them. this show is one hell of a fun ride. it’s like elite mixed with violetta. there’s so much colorful potential in almost (looking at you esteban) all of these characters. they fight, they perform, they’re friends, rivals and lovers, and for the big moments they’re each other’s family. they’re rebelde. i want to steal their wardrobe and be their groupie.
5. WEDNESDAY on netflix
Tumblr media
not suprised this show became such a hit, but i’m glad i watched it when it came out without any preconceived expectations. the style of this show is amazing and it’s an entertaining watch. there can’t be enough praise for jenna ortega’s performance. she’s outstanding in everything she does, and she carried this show.
6. HEARTSTOPPER on netflix
Tumblr media
this is a fluffy warm ball of sunshine. comfort at its finest. i’m so happy this show exists and people talk about it. i just want to give every character a hug. oh, and i want those cute doodles in my life. 
7. THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY on amazon prime
Tumblr media
such a cute summer show. i think the creators did a great job of adapting the book for the modern young audience. it could’ve easily turned into another kissing booth with a “not like other girls” protagonist. even though you can see the original outline of the characters, they feel more evoled in the show. and that’s what i hope will happen to the story later on as well. i like when adaptations improve on given material and find their own identity. 
i did’t really like nor understood the ending so i’m kinda tense about season 2. if it’s gonna turn into a belly x conrad love show, i’m gonna have to head out, and demand a jeremiah spin off (#teamjeremiah). 
8. SINGLE DRUNK FEMALE on freeform
Tumblr media
so this is one of the more underrated shows on this list. it’s a dramedy that follows a young woman battling her addiction in a town full of people who are right there to remind her why she drinks. sam makes quite an appealing lead character. she’s messy, she’s selfish, she’s confrontational, but she longs for real meaningful connections, even though she’s afraid of them. there’s a diverse array of characters who go on this journey with her, and i love every single one of them. i think this show has a very good trailer actually, helps get the feel of the show and what it’s about.
9. DOLLFACE on hulu
Tumblr media
such a beautiful entertaining show about female friendship and finding yourself outside of a relationship. the cast is incredible, including kat dennings as the jilted ex, brenda song and shay mitchell as her estranged besties, matthew gray goobler as a love interest, and brianne howey and lilly singh as a nice bonus on the side. 
the part that makes this show so unique is the daydream sequences that follow the main character. it shifts the rules of the world, makes it more fantastic and unpredictable. makes me wish i could get on a bus with the cat lady that would take me to my friends.
10. HEATHERS on amazon prime
Tumblr media
no matter how much you like the original movie, THIS heather squad is way more memorable and charismatic. who wouldn’t want to watch an edgy dark comedy about teen phychopaths whose whole identity is “i’m not like the other people, i’m weird, i’m a weirdo”, toxic friendships, murderous romance & tumblr fashion circa 2016? maybe i’m just build different if it’s my jam and not yours. 
seriously though, i unapologetically loved it. kinda reminds me of “the scream queens” (which is outstanding) and “insatiable” (which i couldn’t get into). 
thanks for giving this a read <3 hopefully i convinced you to watch some of these!

Reboot Thoughts #1
Dithered about whether to watch the reboot right away and...
One episode in and...the problem is that it's really hard to take it on it's own merits? Compared to QaF US it comes up short, or like - Brodie is definitely no Brian, yeah? But if they'd called it like, Queer NOLA or whateverthefuck, I'd see the references and get excited, instead.
Idk. Think I'll keep going. There are parts of it that get me excited, but right now it's just.. the name..
Because it's called Queer as Folk, it's really hard for me to not be constantly making comparisons.
