Plot Synopsis

This one-hour drama series follows the journey of a group of gay friends and lovers living in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It may have been a small world -- a gay Main Street with a couple of bars, a disco, a few shops and a diner -- but it resonated with universal themes relevant for West Hollywood, Castro and Chelsea. This critically acclaimed series brings with it mature stories about facing the challenges of same-sex parenting, discrimination, AIDS/HIV, cancer and morality.
