Looking Premieres on HBO on January 19, 2014



Looking offers up the unfiltered experiences of three close friends living -- and loving -- in modern-day San Francisco. Friendship may bind them, but each is at a markedly different point in his journey: Patrick (Jonathan Groff) is the 29-year-old video game designer getting back into the dating world in the wake of his ex's engagement; aspiring artist Agustín (Frankie J. Alvarez), 31, is questioning the idea of monogamy amid a move to domesticate with his boyfriend; and the group's oldest member -- longtime waiter Dom (Murray Bartlett), 39 -- is facing middle age with romantic and professional dreams still unfulfilled.

The trio's stories intertwine and unspool dramatically as they search for happiness and intimacy in an age of unparalleled choices -- and rights -- for gay men. Also important to the ‘Looking' mix is the progressive, unpredictable, sexually open culture of the Bay Area, with real San Francisco locations serving as a backdrop for the group's lives. Rounding out the ‘Looking' world are a bevy of dynamic gay men including Kevin (Russell Tovey), Lynn (Scott Bakula), and Richie (Raul Castillo), as well as a wide-range of supporting characters like Dom's roommate Doris (Lauren Weedman), Agustín's boyfriend Frank (O.T. Fagbenle), and Patrick's co-worker Owen (Andrew Law).

'Looking' was created by Michael Lannan and is executive produced by Sarah Condon ('Bored to Death') and Andrew Haigh, who wrote and directed the critically-lauded 'Weekend.'

The guy on the train thinking Patrick was a doctor was understandable as he took the business card from his awkward date but going along with it was amusing as when he rings it's going to be the doctor who answers

What a thing to say when he opened the door but then again replying by asking his age you just knew they were going to get down to business

Patrick having a sick day from work to spend the day exploring with Richie was surprising but going to see a Spanish fortune teller when Patrick doesn't understand the language was a bad idea

Everyone making fun of Patrick's gay voice message was amusing and he looked uncomfortable being filmed having sex with another guy

Patrick becoming anxious about introducing Richie to his mother was interesting but trying to blame her for him not coming was wrong as he's a grown man and should be worried what she thinks

Doris having trouble getting the money for Dom's business was unfortunate but his reaction was out of order as she was doing him a favour and I had a feeling Kevin brought the apartment for the both of them but Megan giving Patrick a hard time over Kevin was understandable after the early stages of their relationship

Looks like the other residence in Kevin's apartment have on over keen interest in their place but getting into a disagreement on their first night was a bad start
Author: Milks26    Time: 4-29-2015 13:33     Subject: Looking Is Canceled

HBO has canceled Looking, the low-rated comedy about the lives and loves of a group of gay friends in San Francisco, but will wrap up the series with a special.
"After two years of following Patrick and his tight-knit group of friends as they explored San Francisco in search of love and lasting relationships, HBO will present the final chapter of their journey as a special," the network said in a statement Wednesday. "We look forward to sharing this adventure with the shows loyal fans."
The show, starring Jonathan Groff, Patrick Alvarez and Murray Bartlett, aired its second-season finale Sunday, averaging 298,000 same-day viewers, less than half the audience of its Girls lead-in. No word on the timing of its special

Looking (The Movie), Trailer HBO 2016

I know it's been almost 18 months since the series ended but it would of been nice if the movie carried on from the series or at leased had a recap, the guys making fun of Patrick's hair when her returned was the only link to the last episode when he had it shaved off and Kevin still saying he loves him was surprising considering he said they cant be friends

HA! So, the movie is finally done. Thanks for the trailer - would not have known otherwise.

Now, I just have to track the movie down somewhere. I hope Patrick wins in the end - but, the trailer doesn't look like its leaning he's way.
