Review of Looking

Looking (2014–2015)
10/10
Perfectly Paced!
20 February 2014
Some folks are complaining that the show seems "too slow" or "is boring". I disagree completely. I'm much more invested in the characters precisely BECAUSE it's not "Hollywood slick". The lines are utterly natural and real to me. Nothing seems "forced" or "acted". The sex-scenes are frank, but very tasteful and more is implied than ever shown, anyway. The humor is genuine and seems completely spontaneous. I really appreciate this more methodical approach. No, it doesn't represent every single facet of the gay community, but it isn't trying to either. Just the lives and loves of a few guys in San Francisco...that's all. It can't be everything to everyone...and shouldn't try. I love it so far. Hoping it's renewed!!!
