A Tearful Farewell

Goodbye, Queer As Folk. Especially, goodbye Brian Kinney. You weren’t always the nicest or easiest character to love, but you never let me down in five years with your unflinching honesty, refusal to compromise, and determination to live on your own terms.

Kudos to Gale Harold for bringing Brian to life. I wish the actor great success.

And thank you to the entire cast for making me laugh and cry and think and want to write even more than I already did.

I don’t really think you stole the name “Ben Bruckner” from us, but remember, TJB’s Ken Bruckner came FIRST. =)

    i’m right there with ya.

    i must first say, emmett was always my favorite, hands down. however, i can’t ignore that love/hate relationship with brian.

    yep, i know a lot of it was stereotypical and all that, but damned if i didn’t watch it as often as possible.

    nice to know you boys. alright, and you couple of grrls.

    1. When the show first began, I loved Lindsay and couldn’t stand Melanie. That flipped over the years, and I was pro-Melanie. By the end, I cared about them both again, but it was tough forgiving Lindsay for everything.

      Emmett is a great character. It would be fun now to go back and watch the first shows again to see how he grew. But he always had the best heart.
