Fire Island (2017)
2/10
On the positive side-pointless, on the negative-dangerous
13 June 2017
There is something seriously confusing about this show. These guys go to one of the gay heavens and all they do is talk about their boyfriends, trying to "fit in" society, judging people for having fun and being free, and trying to connect with their families. If you want to do any of those things probably you should do them the rest of the year. That way there would be no need to go to a place where people try to escape all the pressure of all that mentioned already just to deal with the same issues. Furthermore I doubt anybody would want to go to Fire Island to fight with his roommates. All of that made it very hard for me to find a good point in the mere existing of this show other than seeing a bunch of good-looking guys hanging in Speedos (apparently a very controversial topic).

I always thought Americans gay guys are more tame and family-oriented than Europeans at least on the outside. However, a show about summer, freedom and vacation being turned into very cheap to the point of fake drama is actually dangerous. I would give up hope forever to being able to go to a drama safe place in this world if I were to listen to those guys. Please, enjoy your summer vacation and try to stay positive, drama free and relax!
