With its strong performances, subtle details and believable situations, Looking presents a convincing portrayal of everyday life--either gay or straight.
Looking isn’t a comedy, but it’s much bouncier on its feet. Not slap-happy, but comfortable in its own skin as the three principals.
Looking doesn't make the mistake of arguing that gay men are just like straight women, or straight men, or gay women, or even each other. Instead it tells the story of three guys who are friends in a strangely wonderful and difficult time and what that looks like. To them.
Patrick’s moment of light self-flagellation didn’t feel boring to me. Like the rest of his show, it felt real.
Looking is a good show. It will reward viewers who can hang on beyond the first episode and can adapt to its much slower pace and more naturalistic shooting style..... But, Looking will make you work to get there.
Looking occupies some fuzzy ill-defined middle ground filled with uni-dimensional characters.
Looking isn’t just disappointing, it’s infuriating. Looking offers one hopelessly out-of-date idea about gay life after another.... All of that said, Looking is still a unique moment in gay television.
