"He said I was thirty-one... I'm thirty!" ~Brian

This episode of Queer as Folk was all in all just tongue-in-cheek hilarious! I enjoyed every minute of it. Brian is up for winning a hero award for helping Justin, but an annoying and condescending author feels that Brian absolutely doesn't deserve it. Justin and others encourage Brian to accept the award, but the tables turn when the sponsors want Brian to decline acceptance of the award. This episode had so many hilarious moments, from Emmett's little stint as a maid to Lindsay and Melanie's frantic pick-up after the doorbell rings during sex. I loved all of the moments between Brian and Michael, and some of the Brian/Justin scenes were absolutely beautiful. Michael is desperately trying to get Brian's attention after the whole ordeal with Justin, and it's cute to see how things turn out. Brian and Michael really have a unique relationship, and it's so interesting to see how much it's changed from the very first episode of season one.

This wasn't a bad episode.

I must say I kind of agree with the author who was against Brian getting the award. Nothing that Brian did was all that hero like anyways. Helping a friend being beaten up is a normal thing to do. And yes, Brian is absolutely the kind of person that supports bad stereotypes about gays. And he did use Justin at least in the very beginning and made a life of a teenager even harder.

But I did like the actions of Brian at the end. I am glad that he went for Michael instead for this award, and supported their great friendship. Moments like this make me like Brian
