He might have reasons to be an ***hole, but Brian is still a total ***hole.

I didn't watch religiously, but what I saw...didn't work for me. Seemed like a total soap opera a la Melrose Place, but with worse lighting.

if you mess up with brian kinney, then you are messing up with me.

and he is not an stereotype

So before your critizise Qaf and Brian Kinney, you should understand what the show was about and what the legendary Brian Kinney stood for. There will never again exist a more influential, interesting and credible character on television. Brian Kinney is LEGENDARY! And Gale Harold is a damn fine actor!

Never seen such shit in my life. Some advice: understand what Queer As Folk is about before you dump all over it and it's characters.

To be honest I think you missed the whole point of the series... but that's my opinion... Will & Grace is without a doubt (in my opinion) the best series out there, I was hooked on it and nearly cried when I watched the last episode.

Yes the series was made by a gay man and no it wasn't to show the stereotype goes for all gays. Like all comedy series, it was so that you could have a laugh, and I certainly did, people who watch Will & Grace are generally gay supporters, so no harm done.

"who was about nothing BUT sex"

I of course heard "buttsex." -_-

LOVED this vid. They were both indeed revolutionary.

[superduperjellybean]

well im gay.. and i have 2 gay best friends that i live with.. one of them is just like jack and is not a steriotype.. there many gay guys like that...  and im proud to say that if there was more gays like jack the world would be a better place.

[unbeliveablebuttrue]

And yeah..I agree with RyanSJS.

I bet you'd give ANYTHING for Brian Kinney...and the fact that he'd never even look at you make you hate his character so much.
