The Last American Gay Bar

Has anyone seen this documentary series. For the moment, there is no "Last" gay bar. This is about the rise and fall of gay bars.

Thank you OP, I hadn't heard of this series.

This looks good but I'm scared to watch. The death of nightlife is an extremely depressing concept to me. I don't understand how human beings as a species could just sit back and allow it to happen. It's the best part of life!

I agree. Young people are all so depressed

R5 - I'm actually watching it on Prime right now - you have to signup for 1 week trial of the gay channel, but I recommend it.

It's a similar gay history story - but in Des Moines, Iowa.

R6 here - apparently it's also free on Roku.

I have mixed feelings about watching this.

As a teen from a broken home and after a particularly bad breakup, I sought solstice in nightclubs and bars for two decades before getting sober. I met plenty of great people, losers too, and for three spectacular years was a bartender in an infamous Boston bar on Saturday nights

It was good - not great - but good. I didn't know Anita Bryant got a pie in the face in Des Moines.

The bar is still open by the way.
