It's a funny, relatable (at least for me) rom-com for gay men. This was consistently funny, well-acted, and at points heart-warming story about a group of friends. It was a nice bit of light-hearted but well made entertainment, and ranks high in my mind when I consider other rom-com movies and shows that oftentimes are not as well-written as this.
There's a variety of characters with a variety of traits - and I have to say I've personally met a version of all of them (though my circle isn't successful). In fact, there's a character on this show who is basically me. Some gay men might have had different life experiences from me and can't relate, but the claims this is stereotyped or not like real-life are off-the mark. Personally, I found it to be a barely exaggerated portrayal of things I've been through.
If you find yourself consistently telling yourself you're "not like other gays," or you don't like even just a few honestly not exaggerated feminine male characters (I've met plenty of gay dudes much more fem than anyone portrayed in this show), this might not be the show for you.
