So I have spent the last seventeen or so hours watching Queer as Folk and sleeping. This show rocks! I've hijacked the first season DVD box set from Thea, totally without her permission, which is even worse 'cause she's like borrowing it from someone at work or something. I'll probably spend most of today and tomorrow watching it so I can give it back ASAP, but until then...damn! The characters are interesting, the writings is fabulous, and the direction is impressive...as well as homoerotic in the extreme. I was originally going to peg my enjoyment of the show on directing god Russell Mulcahy (numerous music videos, Highlander, etc, etc, etc...), but he only directed the first three episodes and the show just keeps getting better (though the first three did knock my socks off).

So the plan is, when I'm done, to start catching up on season two, which is currently playing. When it's over, I'm betting that they'll replay the season the way HBO does for their original series. We'll see.

Fuckin' show makes me want to exercise and get in shape...
