Already finished binging Season 1 of Heartstopper? Need something else to watch? You have to check out Big Boys.
Queer writer Jack Rooke’s new British comedy series follows two mismatched lads who strike up an unlikely friendship after being thrown together at university. During their freshman year, the guys explore, experiment, and discover themselves, helping each other along the way.
28-year-old Rooke based the series on his own experiences at university and discovering his sexuality while grieving the sudden loss of his father.

No you wont.
HS is endless sunshine and rainbows while BB is full of looming storm clouds.

Speaking of thunderclouds of depression: Hi Catholic!
I loved this series, very funny, very likeable characters, good storyline running all the way through..10/10
Haven’t seen Heartstopper but if it is indeed “sunshine and rainbows” I’ll probably give it a swerve.

yes, it’s a good tv series. And refreshingly, not a bloody tranzie to be seen!

Troll, without trans men and women, there would be no gay rights.

While I don’t think the trans shade was necessary, the entire campaign to declare gay rights are tied to trans people is disinformation. Stop re-writing history to serve your politics. Gay rights, from someone who was there, are the result of decades of work by gay men and lesbians. Trans people were irrelevant to the movement…not because they were not important as people, but because they did not show up to do the work. Why? Lots of reasons, but it is what it is.
So, now I expect you’ll throw Marsha P. Johnson into the mix. Well, Marsha was not at Stonewall and identified as a gay man – his own words that you can hear him say. Google’s your friend. In fact Marsha, while clearly a scene stealer, was usually passed out somewhere and could be not be depended on to lead anything.

Ya know, being kind and not a hateful asshole costs you nothing and you gain more respect by not being one. Just saying, we’re all people and deserve a modicum of respect.

You can say that about Stonewall and MP Washington all you want. People will believe what they want. Thanks for saying it though. But anyway I may give this series a whirl. Wasn’t to into Heartstopper. Saw one episode and said na. Glad it was a success though.

@Omi Palone, what story are you trying to create, Drag and Trans don’t equate to the same thing. Drag Queens are the ppl that get most credit for the Stonewall riots, the event that is considered to be the start of the visible gay rights movement. Trans is something of recent years (& to many gays not something they identify with).

I so agree with Polaro. There now is this push to rewrite history to make the history of the gay movement all about trans issues and nothing else. As another person that was there, they certainly deserve a seat at the historical table of the fight for gay rights but it was the gay men and women that did most of the work.

Polaro speaks the truth. And I’m not just talking about the gay movement in the US, but in the UK and Australia too. I’m really sick of these attempts to re-write history according to current virtue signalling.

Does not appear to be streaming in the US…best I can tell.

After reading the ratings and reviews for the streaming app I’ll pass

Yep, that’s the best way to make up your own mind. Follow another persons perception, guess that’s why so many shit shows are still on air. eg Kardashian drivel.
