I absolutely love and appreciate "Queer as Folk" on so many levels. Not only is a (very) small segment of gay life examined, but it has characters that you really care about, who make decisions--good and bad--that all can relate to. Straight or gay. Straight shows are so prevalent and plentiful; yet, QAF confronts issues that haven't been touched by those others. Season 4 is quite a bit darker than the others, and way too short. After getting almost unnaturally involved with these people, it finally dawned on me that Brian is the heart and soul of this show, warts 'n all. His reflections and trials are proactive and sincere; pride be damned, he has the utmost integrity. Peter Paige as Emmett, originally a fringe character, has provided solid delight in his honesty, integrity and reliability. Sad and intense moments abound, and I was left with an intense desire to watch Season 5 for some resolutions. In my reviews of previous seasons, I failed to expand on the magnificent presence of the Lesbian couple, Melanie and Lindsey. They are ever-present and vital to the whole picture. Auxilliary characters are fine, such as Justin's militant buddy and Ted's savior counselor. Ted is still adorable in his naîveté and vulnerability. What amazes me the most is the consistancy of the characterizations, each an individual with a very individual agenda. I have Season 5, and I'll watch it thoughfully, as it's the last. I wish the DVDs had more info about the supporting characters. I liked so many, but I still don't know their names. Let's not forget Sharon Gless, that blast from the past that keeps a lot in perspective. Death, cancer, violence against gays, HIV, gay-parenting, and so much more is examined in Season 4. And love. True and not so true. Just like life.

I would be giving 5 stars across the board, but my purchase is missing disc 5. I do not understand how can soemone sell a whole series of Q.A.F. with a disc missing. Otherwise all other Dvd's are in excellent condition.

After a pretty good season 3,"Queer as Folk" really picks up steam in season 4. We discover if Ted survives his downfall with crystle meth, Melanie and Lindsay decide to have another baby with Micheal as the daddy, Emmett finally meets a beautiful man who is a football player, Debbie gets engaged to a cop, and Brian discovers he has cancer. A beloved character also dies this season and everyone's lives change forever. Probably the most disturbing story the writers do is that of a gift seeker, where a young man is determined to be infected with HIV.
There are 14 wonderful episodes along with some neat bonus stuf. A wonderful and interesting season. Like other seasons the shows are filmed in widescreen.
