I didn't wanna post this in the media forum cause I figure it's more at home here... considering it's subject matter.
Discuss! :D

Woohoo!
I'll be honest, I haven't seen the entire series (yet) but I am catching up. I'm currently watching early Season 3 and loving it. My favorite characters are Michael, Debbie, Melanie and Lindsey. Emmett never fails to crack me up and Ted always makes me go "Aww..." everytime something awful happens to him. I guess I could relate but at the same time you just wanna snap him to his senses and realize that life isn't all that bad.
Now Justin. I think at times I relate to him the most but there are moments when I just feel like he's this entirely different person. I suppose that's just how they had intended to write his character. It's the same with Brian. He hides behind this facade and is hard to read sometimes. One minute I wanna strangle him for refusing to attend Melanie and Lindsey's wedding and the next I'm near tears when he offers to stay.
I somewhat hated him in the beginning but with every episode we see different sides of his character and it begins making sense. Also, I mostly watch this show for the drama, the writing and...I'd probably get burned at the Babylon dance pole for this, but I despise the sex scenes. No, really. Some are tasteful, some are sweet...but most just seem to be thrown in for the sake of being edgy.
That said, I love this show. It's funny, it's touching and even though not every gay person in the world lives their life the way QaF characters do, I think this show has something that a lot of people can relate to. The emotions are universal and that's why I think many viewers (including straight ones) are drawn to it.
