Showtime`s hit show QUEER AS FOLK has sparked a great deal of controversy, both for centering a show entirely around gay men, and for the subsequent portrayals of those men. Brian Kinney is the figure around whom the homosexual residents of a gay neighborhood in Pittsburgh coalesce. In SEASON FOUR, Brian`s relationship with Justin is strectched to its limits, but also matures at the same time. Michael and Ben, another couple on the show, have to deal with Ben`s sickness as well as the success of Michael`s comic book featuring a gay superhero. Finally, Melanie and Lindsay face a threat to their relationship when Lindsay begins experimenting with her sexuality. QUEER AS FOLK: SEASON FOUR continues the acclaimed melodrama by maintaining its psychological exploration of the characters, and the many facets of the gay lifestyle.
