Too much of everything

Powerful

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This was honestly the best TV series I've ever seen, it just felt real. I think that's why was so drawn to it watch it!!!

No wonder it got cancelled after 2 seasons. The characters are so annoying.Some Spoiler AlertPatrick - wishy washy, passive aggressive. Following Ritchie like a puppy when Ritchie told him multiple times he is not ready to get back. Or when he want to talk about something, then immediately says unless you don't want to? When he asked Kevin if he had ever hooked up while with his ex, like duh? Hello, he cheated on his ex for you! Etc, etc.Kevin - hard to root for a main character who is a cheater. And the plot didn't dwell into why he and his ex didn't get along, because all the scenes together they were like a model happy couple.Ritchie - what a boring dude. I would fall asleep if I was dating him. You would think someone that hit on somebody on a subway would have a lively personality. And he has the audacity to be dramatic when he trying to help Patrick bow-tie while he is driving and bringing weed to a family wedding? It just doesn't make sense.Agustin - what a loser, and how does he keeps on partying and eating out when he didn't have a job?Dom - only character that was slightly bearable, but that dramatic scene with him and ex in the lobby didn't add up to his type of personality. John - Kevin ex, only character likable, but then he isn't the main character so he was spared from the bad writing.

I absolutely love the episode where Patrick and Richie get to know each other, it is so authentic and as a woman made me think differently about men in general. Richie is a keeper! Too bad they don't show nudity. The series is emotionally raw, culturally educational, not over dramatized, and keeps the viewer interested even if they don't connect with one of the characters due to the engaging interactions within the cast. The addition of a female friend who is straight, edgy, sassy, bs detector, and cute makes me want a gay male bff. The character development is well written and acted. Really glad I happened upon this series, it's been a pleasant surprise.

As someone who used to love Queer as Folk, I can say that this show is nothing like it. And that's a good thing. In Looking not everything is about being gay. It's sort of accepted, unsaid, but obviously there. It's about the characters' development - characters who happen to be gay - every day problems, joys and disappointments. Life. What I loved most about this first season of Looking was how much I came to care about the 3 main characters. And that shows me that they are well thought-out characters, not some superficial gay stereotypes, whatever their age might be. I think the only minus for me was Richie. I didn't really get him, I wasn't really feeling the chemistry between him and Patrick. He went from super-being into Patrick to I don't even know, at one point I wasn't even sure he was gay and out. Some of his scenes were painful to watch honestly. Dom's character grew on me, and I became really invested in his relationship with flower-guy (hope to see more of them!!!). And the whole Patrick/Kevin thread was so subtly done, always giving us just a little more and then withdrawing that connection. So many possibilities for the characters storyline-wise to go to. I just want more of them, know more about them. Really impressed by the whole thing so far!
