The U.S. remake, titled Adult Behavior, will air on ABC with Heinberg executive producing with Davies and Shonda Rhimes.

Davies, created the original Queer as Folk, and Cucumber and Banana served as a spiritual sequel to QAF, following the lives of gay men in Manchester. The hourlong Cucumber followed middle-aged gay man Henry and long-suffering boyfriend Lance, while the half-hour Banana revolved around the younger characters who orbit Henry’s world. A premiere date for Adult Behavior has not been announced.
