Editorial Reviews
What if Sex and the City met Queer as Folk and The L Word--with an all-male, all-black, all-gay cast? Noah's Arc, the winsome Logo Channel series about the dating and sexual adventures of sweet, naive Noah, a would-be screenwriter, and his pals in pumped-up L.A., is just as sweetly addictive as those shows. And it's all the more ground-breaking because nearly the entire cast is African American--stellar actors all. At the center of the circle is Noah (Darryl Stephens), the soft-spoken Carrie/Charlotte character; surrounding him are Chance, Alex, and Ricky, who are pretty much all Samanthas, which can up the sex patter to a fever pitch. Noah struggles as a screenwriter, and struggles in his dating life, at one point becoming wildly attracted to a successful film writer named Wade ("What kind of name is that?!" screeches one pal; Noah replies, "His momma was in the choir and her favorite song was 'Wade in the Water!'"). Turns out even gay guys can have rusty gaydar; Noah--and we--can't tell if Wade's attracted to him or not. The cast rallies 'round one another for adventures like this, and others, great and small, and that's what begins to make it compulsively watchable, whether you're single, gay, or of color or not. Seeing L.A. through Noah's friends' prisms is just as fun; it's a pretty and sculpted eye-candyland. The boxed set includes nine episodes and a fantastic disc of extras, including deleted scenes, auditions, the pilot and commentary featuring the cast and creator, showing the camaraderie we see on the screen was shared on the set too. Let's hear it for the boys! --A.T. Hurley

on the real, this is a gr8t show, you will long for more of the show than what is offered. My gripe is, this product is over charged. there are 3 DVDs but only 2 of them have the tv show on them; its a trick. The same goes for the 2nd season which never ends completely.
Great the first time/............... (2008-12-01)

I already had season 2 and I'd seen parts of season 1....I'm glad I brought it. It answered all of the questions I has as far as them meeting so on and so forth. These guys are nutty and take care of each other.
I did'nt get to see the new movie that came out but I'm definately sure it's well worth seeing again and again...KUDOS!
Noah's Arc: First and Second Season (2008-10-30)
Customer Review : 5
My daughter's friend turned her on to this series and she in turn shared it with me. I love it. I love it and am now hooked. It is about life and relationships. The series may have portrayed the stories through the lives of these beautiful Gay, Black Men but the interactions and life's experiences is not GAY, STRAIGHT, MAN, WOMAN, BLACK, WHITE, etc... It is something we all share and have in common and can probably identify with. It is bottom-line human without all the tags and labels. It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me happy, it made me sad, it made me mad, it made me think, and it also it made me a Voyeur (LOL). The characters are personable, individualistic, and delightful. I have a love for them all. The stories are well written, thought through, entertaining and informative. There is nothing negative I can say about it.

I bought this for my 21 year old daughter. She liked it enough to buy it for her aunt's recent birthday. She did mention, however, that it was fairly racy, so be aware if you are ordering for someone younger.
Noah's ARC delivers on many levels (2008-08-13)
Customer Review : 5
This series has been roundly praised for being grounding breaking and at the same time critized harshly for it's bad acting, poor production values, and un believable story lines. While all of the above is true the point is we love and can relate to these charcters on many levels and isn't that the point in the first place. Each week for two far to short seasons we fell in love with Noah, Wade, Chance, Ricky, et al. Watch these two seasons of DVD's and laugh, cry, root for, and fall in love with these characters all over again. If you watch the episodes with the audio commenatry you should be warned that the actors, most of whom aren't in the episode they are commenting on really is just banter and sometimes provides really good insight into the scenes but not usually. Two of the Digisodes, one each on the season two DVD with Jensen Atwood (Wade) and Darryl Stephens (Noah) while very heavy handed are nothing short of acting/writing brilliance. The chemistry is unmatched on par with some of the best television has ever produced. ENJOY because now all we have are the DVD's and the upcoming movie. Noah's Arc - The Complete First Season
