I tried watching this.


Can someone help me out here? I tried watching the DVDs years ago, but couldn't get past the first ten minutes. Is this about AIDs victims or homosexuality in the US, or, better yet, drug use? It seemed really bizarre, almost like a modern version of "Brazil".

An angel or gateway to hell popping out of the floor. The two guys kissing in the bathroom didn't bother me, but all the existential stuff just seemed really out there.

Well, that's what I remember. I just didn't get what the whole thing was about.

Well, some lady psychologist in Sacramento recommended it to me many years ago, so I rented the series from Blockbuster, but I really didn't get what I was watching. I might have dozed off.

Knowing the full title explains much. I don't feel bad for not liking it, I just didn't understand what it was, and to be honest, not being gay, maybe that's why it didn't sync with me. Oh well.

Thanks for the reply.

At its core the story of two couples whose relationships dissolve a midst the backdrop of Reagan era politics, the spreading AIDS epidemic, and a rapidly changing social and political climate, since it was set in 1985.
