Good story, Not enough for a whole film

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

I'm not a black gay male but a bi black woman and I love this show! I have a lot of gay friends and although this show does not represent the majority of black gay males I definitely see a resemblance between the characters in this show and some of my friends! Anyone who expects what they consider to be a "realistic" vision of themselves shown on TV or a movie screen is being ridiculous! Of course, you aren't going to see "you"; but don't condemn a show based on your idealistic views! If that was the case there would be NOTHING at all on TV or at the movies! How many other shows do you watch or movies do you go to that are absolutely a mirror image of you? NONE!!! It's all about identifying with the characters and the situations; and this show gives you this!!! It gets an A++++!!!!!

I, myself, loved series one of Noah's Arc. I don't have LOGO, so I waited for series one to come out on DVD. I stayed up a whole night and watched everything on the three discs. Even the special features disc. I loved every single minute of Noah's Arc. It made me laugh at and almost made me cry. Me being the strong person that I am, I was surprised. All of the characters were great. But my favorites were Jensen Atwood B.K.A. Wade and Darryl Stephens B.K.A. Noah. They were a really good couple. I loved how Wade took Noah to the bar with him. It showed that he didn't care at all. He was letting his boys, and most importantly, Noah know that they had to accept it or not accept it. I love a man who has just come out of the closet and gets the nerve to bring their feminine boyfriend around the fellas. That does something to me. The DVD series was so good that it had me want to get up and try and make a show about me and my 3 friends. We put ourselves in the show. I am Alex, my friend Tammy is Noah, my friend Bianca is Ricky and my friend Hollywood is Chance. I can see a little of us in those characters. I just loved the show and would love to be apart of something so positive for black homosexuals.

Say it doesn't represent you if you like, I have yet to see a positive image of two black men in love on TV anywhere. The series, unlike the pilot, alternates between touching and melodramatic. Possibly one of the best series ever and the best representation of black gay love ever done, period.And not just because it's the only one, I've seen plenty of grab and grope movies, this show is sweet and thoughtful in its main storyline. THe characters aren't convicts forced to fall in love because they're aren't any women around, a common theme in some gay black films. They aren't both terrified of who they are. They come into their own love and accept it for what it is, besides Noahs' idiocy in the season finale.All in all, one of the best love stories I've seen and I can't wait to see where it goes. I hope it actually gives us a happy ending.

My sister forced me to watch the complete season with her a few weeks ago, claiming it was a "must see." After watching the tape, I think it's a "must avoid." As a gay black male I thought surely I would relate to it somehow, but I saw myself nowhere in this show. Sadly, I'd rather watch reruns of Queer as Folk. My problem with the show is that none of the characters are believable or respectable: There's Noah, possibly the biggest queen ever; supposedly soooo in love with his closeted fake thug, but hooks up with the first stranger who shows him attention. Then there's Alex, as silly, insecure and melodramatic as they come; treats his man (who in real life probably wouldn't accept large sums of money to even be seen with someone like him, let alone date) like a personal slave/houseboy, goes after anyone who gets within 3 feet of him, and then wonders why he wants time away from him. Which brings us to Ricky, the nasty man-whore; goes on a date, only to sneak off to the restroom to hookup with the waiter. I needn't say more-this slut is an embarrassment to gay men. And finally, Chance, so uptight he should be shooting diamonds from his rear; supposedly so together, so intelligent, so mature, yet drives his car into the house of someone his man hooked up with. Between that, and merely the way he speaks, I wanted to mute all his scenes out of disgust. Being the type I am, I'll give anything a chance before condemning it. I wanted to like this show but unfortunately I was disappointed deeply. I'm ready for someone to break away from stereotypes (i.e., promiscuity, femininity, cheating, etc) and give us a show featuring characters that are masculine, interesting, diverse and genuinely funny. Noah's Arc is clearly not that show.
