Entertaining but many slow moving scenes that almost mimic the speed of real life. 3 main characters couldn't properly represent the many types of gays in existence. A more diverse representation would have been appreciated. I'm not specifically talking about race, but the whole LGBTQ+ spectrum. There are so many untold LBTQ+ stories that could have made the show more unique & feel less stale. The main love story conflict was nothing new & in the end felt uninspired. Not bad, still entertaining.

Where's that diversity? Just spoiled whiny brats that lack character. Dom and his roommate kept my attention. The other two were fucking annoying. I can't relate to any of this. Production value is pretty good though. The image is too yellow for me. Nothing new here, just a rendition of a rendition.

It's the demonstrated pragmatism and modesty, the diverse, fun loving characters, along with a well presented and beautiful setting that together, make a seemingly monotonous series like Looking, captivating. Looking leaves behind all pretense of what gay life should be and offers viewers a look into what REAL life is like for both gay men and those closest to them. The reality, though mostly filtered of the sometimes exciting stereotypes, is a moving and relevant tale of 3 complex gay men in San Francisco.
