Great Cast in a Paint-by-the-numbers Gay Cliche

What a waste of a great cast. I had high hopes for this, given the previews and other reviews. This has all of the classic gay tropes like self-denial of one's sexuality, all of the characters have to die a violent death in the end (only the straight one lives), dysfunctional broken homes, tragic upbringing. OMG. These pilot lines were tired back in the 1990s. Was this an old script that finally got produced after 30 years? The only thing original about 2 Cool 2 Be 4gotten is only the straight character has a nude scene. There was so much that could have been done here but we've seen it all before -- especially the suicide ending. I hate to be so harsh but it's time to leave bury the gay romance stereotypes one and for all. Here's a tip for aspiring screen writers of gay-themed dramas: If you've seen it before, leave it out of your script. Also the audience should never be screaming at the screen: "Why is he doing that?"
