Underlined by the ongoing kickback from Call Me by Your Name, the relationship between 17-year-old Justin and 29-year-old Brian isn't just a taboo as the original series implies. How would a modern-day Brian, Ted, Emmett, and Michael navigate the world with gay apps? If Queer as Folk did come back, it'd need quite the facelift.

"That would be a totally, totally different kind of show." "This was a show about young people trying to find their way," he told Entertainment Weekly.

“And with Tinder and Grindr, it’s a very, very different world than it used to be. "If somebody wanted Queer as Folk, that kind of energy, you’d have to go back and you’d have to cast young people,” said Lipman. While the show is an envelope-pushing snapshot of a part of gay culture in the early 2000s, how exactly will it translate into 2019?Įxecutive Producer of the US version Daniel Lipman had an opinion on a hypothetical reboot earlier this summer.

Normally we'd be hyped for a reboot, but that description is a bit worrisome. "It is described as a modern take on the original British series that centers on a group of club-going friends who find support in the gay community following a tragedy." "The new version of the show will feature entirely new characters in a new setting," reports Variety. Davies, creator of the original UK series, is all set to executive produce the show for Bravo, along with writer and producer Stephen Dunn, who directed 2015's gay, coming-of-age story Closet Monster. The original UK show ran for 10 episodes in 1999, then was remade for North American audiences, premiering on Showtime and the Canadian channel Showcase in 2000 and ran for five seasons. The US Queer as Folk follows four gay twenty-somethings as they navigate dating, homophobia, and their personal lives in early 2000s Pittsburgh. Y’all, things just keep getting better!
