Ten years after going their separate ways, the boys from Pittsburgh are back.

The cast and writers of Showtimes’ groundbreaking series, “Queer as Folk” are returning for one-time reunion special at this year’s ATX Festival in Austin, Texas.

The award-winning show, which aired from 2000 to 2005, followed the lives of a group of gay friends and their relationships, careers, loves and ambitions.

Creators Ron Cowen and Daniel Lipman will join cast members Gale Harold (Brian Kinney), Peter Paige (Emmitt Honeycutt), Robert Gant (Professor Ben Bruckner), Scott Lowell (Ted Schmidt), Michelle Clunie (Melanie Marcus), and Thea Gill (Lindsay Peterson).

So, far, the only no-show from the original group is Hal Sparks (Michael Novotny).
