Show Information

Hal Sparks, Michele Clunie and Thea Gill share their stories and feelings on their show's opening theme and the images they'd rather see, playing gay for pay, on set hi-jinx and bloopers!

WASHINGTON, DC – GNN Inc., delivers a half hour behind-the scenes look Queer As Folk with the three of the actors from the American Version.

On a recent tour of college campuses around the US, three members of the hit Showtime series Queer as Folk visited American University to promote their second season. After an audience Q and A the three thespians sat down for an interview with the Gay News Network's Jacob Mikow and Joe Libertore, Jr.

The actors Hal Sparks (Michael Novotny) Thea Gill (Lindsay Peterson) and Michelle Clunie (Melanie Marcus) sat down for a no-holds barred interview and shared their thoughts on trying to represent the entire gay community, weather or not playing gay will hurt or actually help their careers. The trio share some intimate back stage blooper stories and why none of them have problems getting naked and playing same gender love scenes.

The three actors reveal how long they are willing to stay with the show and what they say to people who think the lesbian couple dress more like a straight man's fantasy than any lesbians they know. Highlighting this special interview are clips from both the US and British series in addition to bloopers.

On upcoming episodes of GNN in addition to news summaries viewers will see interviews with Actor Chad Allen, Danny Roberts from MTV's Real World, Scouting for All's founder Steven Cozza, author Chris Rice and transgender rights experts Jessica Xavier and Earline Budd.
