    I had vaguely heard of this show before but had never found out what it was about. Now that I've seen it, I can say it is an excellent show. The episodes go by very quickly as these likable characters work their way through their lives with humor. I have seen the show compared to Sex and the City. I understand those comparisons in terms of the two shows being about relationships, both romantic and friends. The characters deal with their romantic relationships while always maintaining the firm base of their friendships. The episodes include an incredible variety of situations, from workplace to marriage to parenting to masculinity, and give a broad perspective on both black and gay cultures. When I think of the show, though, those things seem secondary to me to the warm humor that arises from the interactions of the friends.

    I can not believe that they canceled this series. I've heard nothing but positive comments. I am very disappointed, could they not at least tie up all the loose ends? I think they owe the faithful watchers of the series at least that. I certainly hope they could give us at least one more season, or a least one more show, to do just that.I was just watching the marathon on Logo, figuring they were doing this because the new season would start next week. Imagine my surprise when I decided out of the blue to go to Christian's web page, to find that it was canceled? I just don't understand. Is there any way that we can get the show back? I'm not understanding how shows can be popular, even win awards and one so-called network person can say that the want it canceled and it just goes?Not fair guys.

    Well they didn't call this show groundbreaking for nothing. I can't remember when I've been so addicted to a show so quickly. The storyline is wonderful and the characters are perfect and real. *sigh* I lose my backbone every time I watch Noah stare at his man.I put off trying to watch it because I couldn't keep my premium channels in the move and then our area didn't have LOGO. Now, finally, I've got the first season and the channels that show it. I am excited/dreading the second season. I don't want it to end! But there had better be a season three. Now if I could just get a soundtrack.... :D

    Situational comedy involving gay African-American men in Southern California...and it's a hugely enjoyable, happy surprise. Having fun with stereotypes, and thankfully ignoring political issues, "Noah's Arc" just wants to tease and have fun, and the results are sweetly giddy. A subplot about a cheating lover (handled with surprising skill and taste) is about as serious as it gets. The show, running on the Logo Network, has enough heart to change perceptions and enough wit to make each new episode worth finding. The cast is uniformly excellent; it's probably always the case with a show like this to wonder if these talented men are, in fact, homosexual (and if not, how much training does it take for straight actors to fit so comfortably into this no-holds-barred gay atmosphere?). The scenario doesn't dwell much in their work-a-day lives (husky Trey, played by Gregory Kieth, is the only one who seems to work on a regular basis), so there's more than an element of fantasy here, with plush digs and lots of money going around. Yet, if "Noah's Arc" isn't exactly a gritty or realistic show about the gay black man's struggle in today's world, it is a pleasurable outing that treats its characters with heart, smarts, comic sensitivity, and courage.
