When it aired on Showtime is was the only program, series, book, porn (it really is just a show with mail nudity and women nudity for that matter), my point is I started watching this around 2001 ish and now that it is 2016 ish we as a society still do not have an accurate depiction of gay life, the struggles, the lessons, heroes, inspiration, etc etc. I mean come on. All these apps are so sensored. We want more than just porn ya know :-/

Am I the only person who's annoyed with these changed musics? Where's' You think you're a man' when Brian first takes Justin to his place? Where's 'Proud' when Brian and Michael go to the top of the building? What happened to the scene where the boys sing 'Boy from New York City'? It's not just background music... I think those music also made them iconic and I need all of those!

I love everything about the show. It really touches you. It feels like it's real and these are your real friends. I wish they would come back for more seasons. I'm sad it's over
