Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

deaniac1 The books were much better than the miniseries, but I really liked that they stuck to the contents of the book more faithfully than others. The one thing that's really disconcerting is that most of the main characters were played by different people. You've invested all this time in the actors and then you have to get used to the new people. They aren't horrible, but it's better to read the books before you see the series. Armistead Maupin is a fantastic writer, and only a little bit of the uniqueness of the books. And by the way, I heard someone say that "Tales" was only for a "certain group of people." Not true at all. He writes for everyone.

Rickpw I agree that the casting of different actors as Michael, Mona, Brian (especially Brian), Mrs. Halcyon, Dor'thea, Emma is a jolt. However, it's a done deal, so get over it. All in all, I'd say this second set is as enjoyable as the first, and moves more quickly, with as many over the top surprises. I read the book after I saw the show, so I was howling at the TV in surprise as the big mystery about Burke's amnesia played out with the most hilarious spin on a cult anyone could come up with. I can't think of another TV mini-series that is this fun. And a note for fellow gay men: this is required viewing. People who watch light entertainment and treat it too seriously... well, they have a perspective that I think is misplaced.

Edouard Baissier Mesert Armistad Maupin's Tales of the City and More Tales of the City are landmarks in Gay liturature. They are not for Homophobes, they are not for bigots, they are for the friends of the GLBT Community. If you don't like Gay people, don't watch these movies. Don't watch Queer as Folk, and don't watch Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.I don't watch Mormon stories. I don't watch Southern Baptist stories. I will not tell anyone to watch something that offends them. Watch what you feel comfortable with. This is big wide wonderful world full of lots of different people. We're fabulous! We're here we're Queer

Nick-337 When I first saw this sequel a couple of years ago I tried to hate it. So many of the characters had been re-cast with new actors that it was jarring at first. Since then I have watched it a couple more times and I have to admit that I just love More Tales. It has grown on me. The writing is excellent and it is very addictive. My favorite character in this was Anna Madrigal played by Olympia Dukakis. The scenes where she reunites with Mother Mucca are quite touching and brought a tear to my eye. Bravo to Bravo for dusting off these gems every once in a while and making some new fans of Armistead Maupin.
