Web series are the way of the future and I am glad I stumbled across this one. Not only is it set in the most glorious of cities on earth, it features some amazing acting from a supremely talented cast, some emotional and surprising plot twists, and some deep and abiding humor. Sure, sometimes it seems a bit over the top - and thank god - what good gay doesn't like a bit of melodrama! C'mon, we thrive on it as a people!

Five friends in NYC live their lives as best they can, and even though some of the plots are disconnected from each other (and let's be honest, isn't that how real life is?), they all come together, because that's how we survive: by finding humor in tragedy, finding comfort from friends?

Eagerly awaiting season 2 --- and will absolutely watch anything any of this incredible ensemble are in in the future.

One of the best gay web series out there, up there with Adam Goldman's two series. Peter William Dunn is extremely appealing as Huxley, and the various story lines make for an intriguing and beguiling mix with nice cliff-hanger endings to episodes. Of course it is a soap opera really, but a juicy one with characters that you root for and situations that are outside the ordinary but not unrealistic, and a nice balance of humor to drama. And it's truly refreshing to have the main character be a black gay man - the series may not focus much on racial issues but doesn't ignore them either. It also has high production values that put it above other web series along with much of the acting. (My only complaint was the wait for some episodes, which is a credit to the series really).

Looking forward to season 2!

Given the storyline synopsis and the 8.1 rating (not likely to remain that high) I had high hopes for this series. I have to believe the first people to rate Gays were cast members and their friends.

I did watch the first three episodes (before giving up) and held out hope that things would start to gel and the acting would improve, but there were no signs of that happening.

The whole thing seemed to consist of loosely related scenes glued together. The acting was tentative and, aside from the actor who played Huxley, it all seemed extremely amateurish and even he seemed unsure of himself at times. I assume the goal was to be camp and funny in the mode of the Eating Out movies or current NYC scene like Hunting Season, but it was mostly drag queens and drama queens being bitchy to one another and not even doing that very well.

Sorry, but there was no humor and no drama, just a succession of badly acted clichéd situations, unfortunately depressing stereotypes and no feeling of connection to or between any of the characters ... other than acute sympathetic embarrassment for them all. Hopefully none of the cast quit their day jobs.
