I think it's great RTD is finding new ways to get it to a more youthful audience, but we mustn't forget about the "original" cast members, even though original UK cast members are often overlooked. The UK edition was good, too, but not as lengthy. So I understand why he's giving his British counterparts a bit of much-needed push. Still, the thought of having a new version of the show boggles my mind a little. I'll with it, though.

Just a note about the current article.
Reboot time: It’s official! The U.K. version of “Queer As Folk” is being rebooted by Bravo Quote:

They told the stories they wanted to tell. They're done.

Wait, what? They were sitting on ideas for a revival and they just gave them away?

Quote from that article: “This was a show about young people trying to find their way,” says Lipman. “Now we’d have a cast who are all mature. So that would be a totally, totally different kind of show.”
Well yeah, that's why so many people were saying they wanted an update of what the ORIGINAL characters are doing NOW. I'm kind of upset, but also kind of relieved. It's easy to mess with something that should be left alone. The original's a masterpiece. Best to let it lie. __________________

I'm so over wanting to appeal to a younger crowd. We already got enough shows that reflect the reality of being a millennial, we don't need another one. It all feels very patronizing... another reason I'm not into these reboots.

I personally agree with this:

It would be cute to see what Gus and J.R. are up to.

I loved that Scott spoke up about it. Calling it "OUR" version, as if the show belongs to not just the cast/crew, but also to the fans. Awww.

It honestly sounds like what happened with the Charmed reboot.... I don't like it one bit.
