Is the UK version of Queer as Folk any good?

[Kane Knight]

I've been watching the US version on LOGO, and I've been interested enough that I picked up the first season. I've never seen the UK version anywhere on US television, so I'm kind of looking for actual opinions. Normally, I wouldn't ask for opinions on a "gay" show on TPWW, but it is a British thing, so I'm assuming that y'all watched it religiously. ;)

It's probably a bit gayer

I remember how controversial it was at the time, I watched some of it but never got particularly into it, being a 13 year old at the time and not concerned with matters of sexual deviance

i watched it a bit but it was fucking 10 years ago or something now so i have absolutely no idea. my friend from college was the kid who sat next to the gay kid in all the classroom scenes though.

Also one of the lead characters also plays Mayor Thomas Carcetti in The Wire

There was a point where you weren't a sexual deviant?

I watched it when I was like 16 and I think it was ok.
