Queer as folk is a groundbreaking dramatic series that centers on the lives of five gay men living in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The American adaptation of the British show of the same name features comic book lover Michael Novotny (Hal Sparks), sexually promiscuous ad exec Brian Kinney (Gale Harold), artist Justin Taylor (Randy Harrison), former Mississippi native Emmett Honeycutt (Peter Paige), and accountant Ted Schmidt (Scott Lowell). When they're not working or hanging out at Babylon, their favorite club, they each focus on their own personal, and often complicated, relationships.
