Queer

Just watched the season premiere of Queer as Folk. I have been watching this show every Saturday night for the past several weeks, trying to get caught up, and I have to admit: I love it.
Better than The L Word (go figure) — or at least Season 2 of The L Word, which did not even compare to Season 1. Which I liked well enough to watch, all in one sitting, over the course of 2 days.

But I knew I was out of luck,
The day the music died.

Seems to be enjoying the indoor life, for now. (Damn squirrels!)
