THE NEW QUEER AS FOLK GETS BOGGED DOWN TRAGEDYPEACK’S UPDATED VERSN OF THE PNEERG GAY TV SHOW HAS TROUBLE LOTG S HUMANY. BY RICHARD LAWSONJUNE 8, 2022BY ALYSSA MORAN/PEACK.SAVE THIS STORYSAVESAVE THIS STORYSAVEJT AS THE HORROR GENRE HAS RECENTLY FOUND SELF DRAWN TOWARD THE WELL OF EMOTNAL TRMA, FILMS AND TV SHOWS VERG THE LGBTQ+ MUNY HAVE BEEN STGGLG TO PULL THEMSELV OUT OF . RECENT HS LIKE FIRE ISLAND AND HEARTSTOPPER HAVE FOCED ON SOME PERSONAL WO, SURE—BUT MOSTLY THEY ARE SWOONY AND OPTIMISTIC, SHOWG QUEER PEOPLE STEPPG TO THEIR TONOMO FULLNS RATHER THAN STUCK UNR THE WEIGHT OF OPPRSN AND MARGALIZATN.ONE MIGHT THK THAT A REBOOT OF THE SEMAL GAY SERI QUEER AS FOLK, WHICH BUTED THE U.K. 1999 AND WAS QUICKLY FOLLOWED BY AN AMERIN VERSN 2000, WOULD NTUE THAT VE. AFTER ALL, ORIGAL CREATOR RSELL T. DAVI REVELED THE SOAPS OF GAY LIFE, WH ALL S ROLLERASTER HEIGHTS AND DIPS, BUT LARGELY AVOID THE REALLY HARD STUFF, PARTICULARLY AIDS. (HE RECEIVED SOME CRICISM FOR THAT, AND EVENTUALLY MA THE SERI IT’S A S RPONSE, OR PERHAPS ATONEMENT.) TWENTY-PL YEARS AFTER QUEER AS FOLK FIRST H THE AIRWAV—WH SO MANY SUBSEQUENT VELOPMENTS QUEER VISIBILY, WHICH HAVE LED TO A BROAR UNRSTANDG OF LGBTQ+ LIFE’S MANY VARIATNS AND NUANC—WE MIGHT EXPECT PEACK’S NEW ERATN TO BE A DISCURSIVE CELEBRATN, MORE ALERT AND CLIVE THAN THE ORIGAL SHOW BUT NO LS ASSURED OF THE SOLIDY OF S ESYSTEM.WRER-DIRECTOR STEPHEN DUNN, WHO VELOPED THE NEW QUEER AS FOLK (PREMIERG JUNE 9), WAS TOO TEMPTED BY THE TRMA, THOUGH. HIS UPDATE A MASS SHOOTG AS S CG EVENT, A NIGHTMARE THAT IMMEDIATELY EVOK THE 2016 PULSE NIGHTCLUB MASSACRE. THAT WAS A SEISMIC CINT THAT, THE RIGHT HANDS, ULD MER SOME KD OF FICTNALIZATN—A STUDY OF THE LONG AND TERRIBLE LGER OF THE THG, A NSIRATN OF VLENCE’S RIPPLG IMPACT THROUGHOUT A MUNY. BUT IS THAT WHAT QUEER AS FOLK SHOULD BE? AFTER WATCHG ALL OF THE FIRST SEASON, I THK MY ANSWER IS NO.MOST TRATGLY, THE SHOW IS RATHER SELECTIVE ABOUT WHEN WANTS THE TRAGEDY TO REENTER THE PICTURE. WHAT HAPPENS TO THE SHOW’S MA CHARACTERS IS PROFOUNDLY TERRIFYG AND TRANSFORMATIVE, YET WE ONLY SEE THAT EFFECT OCSNAL BURSTS. OTHERWISE HANGS THE BACKGROUND AWKWARDLY, ALMOST FOTTEN—WHILE THE FOREGROUND, WE ARE SERVED THE UAL, AND EXPECTED, OFFERG OF ROMANTIC TRAVAILS, TRA-SOCIAL SQUABBL, AND SEX.THIS MAK THE AMG VICE SEEM AWFULLY CYNIL, AN EXPLOATN OF A REAL TRMA AS A MARKETABLE HOOK. HERE’S A SHOW ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED AT PULSE, WH THE IMPRIMATUR OF THE QUEER AS FOLK BRAND—TARNISHED AS THAT MAY BE—STAMPED ON . A RIPPED-OM-THE-HEADL PREMISE MAY LOTE THE NEW SERI THE WHE-HOT CENTER OF MORNY, BUT DUNN AND PANY EXTRACT LTLE SIGHT OM THAT AGGRSIVE TIMELS.THE SHOOTG—AT THE QUEER AS FOLK-IVERSE’S INIC BABYLON NIGHTCLUB, THIS TIME RELOTED TO NEW ORLEANS—IS BUT ONE OF THE WAYS THE SHOW AWKWARDLY TANGL WH PRENT TOPICS. DUNN HAS MA A HEAP OF EFFORT TO WIN THE SHOW’S PURVIEW BEYOND THE CIS WHE GAY REALM OF THE FIRST TWO SERI. THIS LEADS QAF 2022 TO A VAST ARRAY OF POTENTIALLY TERTG PLOT L ABOUT DISABILY WH THE QUEER MUNY, ABOUT THE ONGOG PLEXI OF TRANS INTY, ABOUT AN ERA OF HYPER-AWARENS ABOUT RACE AND CLASS THAT HAS YIELD LTLE POSIVE ACTN—THOUGH, PLENTY OF NEGATIVE—OM PEOPLE POWER. HERE AND THERE, QUEER AS FOLK GIV HUMAN SHAPE TO THOSE TALKG POTS. BUT TOO OFTEN THEY ONLY SERVE AS DIDACTIC DITORS OF THE SHOW’S SOCIAL NSCNS—QUEER AS FOLK PRENTS A SEA OF TOKENS LOOKG FOR PERSONHOOD.BY ALYSSA MORAN/PEACK.MOST POPULAR25 PERFECT TV EPISOS FROM THE LAST 25 YEARSBY HILLARY BISSARA RAMIREZ ISSU STHG RPONSE TO ANTI–CHE DIAZ PROFILEBY SAVANNAH WALSHFIRST LOOK: ANTE BENG SWIMS TOWARD THE ROLE OF A LIFETIME NYADBY DAVID CANFIELDON THE SUCCSFUL SI OF THGS THERE IS MARV (ERIC GRAISE), A HORNY, NVIVIAL BABYLON REGULAR WHO A WHEELCHAIR.

SIARLY, THERE IS A STRIKG SCENE WHICH A NON-BARY CHARACTER, SHAR (CG), RELAT THE BOGGLG STRANGENS OF G THEIR BODY TO BIRTH AND NURSE TWO FANT CHILDREN, A NECSY THAT HAS NOHELS ALIENATED THEM OM THEIR SENSE OF SELF AND GENR. THERE HAS BEEN PREC LTLE OF THIS KD OF NVERSATN ON MASTREAM TELEVISN, AND QUEER AS FOLK SHOULD BE MEND FOR STAGG .ELSEWHERE, THOUGH, THOSE SAME CHARACTERS SPEAK THE SHOW’S BLUNT, CLARATIVE STYLE, PHG THEM FURTHER OM THE TANGIBLE PEOPLE GRAISE AND CG WORK SO HARD, AND EFFECTIVELY, TO CREATE. AND THEIR NCERNS ARE DWARFED BY THE BED-HOPPG ANTICS OF THE SERI’S RE PLAYERS, HOTTIE EX BRODIE (DEV WAY) AND NOAH (JOHNNY SIBILY). BOTH ARE GRIEVG A IEND WHO WAS KILLED THE ATTACK, BUT MOSTLY THEY BICKER ABOUT THE STATE OF THEIR RELATNSHIP. THIS ALL GROWS PRETTY REPETIVE AS THE SEASON LURCH ALONG.

BUT SO MUCH OF THE SERI IS AN AIMLS WANR HNTED BY AN ANNIHILATG TRAGEDY, A SURVEY OF QUEER EXISTENCE THAT LOT SELF STGGLE, TERPTED ONLY BY BOUTS OF FIANT HEDONISM. SOME MAY FD THAT AN APT ENOUGH SUMMATN OF THE QUEER EXPERIENCE. OTHERS, LIKE ME, WILL WISH THE SHOW TEND TO THE VAST AND UNEXPLORED—BY THIS SHOW, AT LEAST—MIDDLE GROUND BETWEEN THAT FOUNDATNAL PA AND FLEETG PLEASURE.THE EXTREM ARE WORTHY OF PICTN, OF URSE. BUT SO ARE THE MORE QUOTIDIAN MOMENTS, ON THAT DON’T CULMATE A LECTURE OR A LSON BUT SIMPLY ADD, SOME SMALL BUT NOT SIGNIFINT WAY, TO THE SHAPE OF A LIFE.
