On tonights episode when justin confronted mikey about brians cancer and mikey found out about it,do you think that he should have let justin talk to brian first about it or was it rude he did it first and did he backstab justin because he told him to respect his wishes and be quiet?

I don't see it as Mike being rude or backstabbing. Regardless of Justin's and Brian's relationship, Mike and Brian have been friends for a considerably long time and have, in many way, a much more intimate bond because of that. I think it would be rude and selfish should Justin be upset with Mike about the situation. Of course, it's only a soap opera and is no more realistic than any other. :D

I really dont like it i find it a little to Gay--LOL not to sound like a homophobe or nutten like that. But i do love thier next gay sho The L word, My god im hooked on that. I cant wait for the new season, the suspence is killen me.(then again iam a sucker for jeniffer beals) so is showtime going in the Gay direction, because id say well over fifty% of showtime programming has to do with some type of homosexual thing. ive watched a couple of those m-f f-m sex surgery stories which are very interesting-- it gives u a totaly different perspective of that way of life. Maybe thier sayen can be Showtime is Gaytime--lol Or showtime where the gay shows! BTW are any of u gay-- just tell me if i afended u--it was not meant like that.

I think you have Mike and Justin confused. Mike is Brian's best friend from way back when they were kids. Justin is Brian's live-in much-younger boyfriend. Mike and Justin collaborate on a comic book called "Rage".

Some gay people aren't very interested in QAF, they think it portrays gay people in a bad light. But, I don't really see it that way, it isn't meant to be an accurate portrayal, it is a soap opera. It is about as accurate a picture of typical "gay life" as "All My Children" or "Guiding Light" is about straight life.
Showtime hasn't "gone gay", but they have always been more open to gay programming. Because of the success of QAF, which has attracted more gay viewers, they have, of course, come out with more gay-themed programming to keep that audience. Plus, during the month of June they tend to show many more gay-themed movies in honor of Pride month (June is the anniversary of the Stonewall Riot, a pivotal event in gay American history). Showtime is owned by Viacom (which also owns CBS, MTV and many other cable networks, plus Blockbuster) who has been working on bringing a full-time gay channel to cable. It is set to launch in 2005, called LOGO. No word on the programming yet.

Yes I did hear about this channel being created. I had heard about it on the jay leno show like 2 years ago, I thought it was just a joke tho.
