Not gay shite from what I’ve seen

Half Man (created by and starring Richard Gadd), the protagonist, Niall (played by Jamie Bell/Mitchell Robertson), is a gay man struggling intensely with his sexuality, internalized homophobia, and a toxic, codependent relationship with his half-brother Ruben.


Never change VOR.


Not sure how you can watch that trailer and not see it being gay.

In the opening scene the older brother is legit grabbing the younger brothers dick on his wedding day saying "come on please one more time for old times sake".

Then flashback to high school years and the two sleep in the same bed together and the younger brother wakes up with jizz on his boxers.

Then later the older brother gets a girl to have sex with the younger brother while he sits there and enjoys it and is all in his face and touching near his junk.

All in the first episode


OK, I am definitely out.

Cats are outing themselves in this thread

Not that there is anything wrong with that

Gays can have their shows, too

I don't mind a gay character as long as he / she is a supporting role, but if he / she is a main character, then I'm out.


Yes guys. The main character is a filthy fig. The show certainly leans into him being a loathsome degenerate. And, just being honest, I typically wince at two dudes even kissing

The payoff is Gadd’s brilliant performance. Heforces you to choose between a ruthlessly violent psychopath who stomps human heads into pulp, and his self-disgusted, spineless brother who Gadd has absolute control over. The storyline is incredibly captivating

I get that it’s not for everyone, but it’s definitely worth it to me to turn my head a few times

Nothing about this is appealing

Just sounds like gay domination fantasies

I mean, I am not judging bro. . .everyone has a thing, I guess

Cool. I don’t make any commission if people see it. Nobody would ever describe me as progressive lol So I assumed if I could tolerate some gay for some pretty damn riveting acting, a few others could too. Not a big deal
