Have watched this show multiple times, and still love it. It's very natural and entertaining, was happy when it at least was a movie to be seen regarding the ending. I really enjoy that it's about the gay scene, which I don't think there is enough good series and movies about.
Looking is my favorite LGBT show. It is very nicely done, very real with characters you can relate to.
It was way ahead of the time, I believe it would be more popular now, maybe on a streaming service would get more seasons.
The show is nice and very realistic. As a part of the LGBT community, I found their problems and stories very relatable and true.
It is no Hollywood BS, just real guys, no posh word or anything.
I wish it would have more seasons, I miss it.

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!!!
This series was ahead of its time; there is no other way to describe such this amazing show that could have given way more that it was given the chance to. HBO shouldn't have let it go that easily, even though they gave it a proper ending it feels like you want to watch more and more. Patrick and all the characters are well played and every single taboo among the gay community is discussed or mentioned in a very smart, classy and way we all can learn about them.
Interesting to read some of the reviews of this show.Personally I find it a very entertaining,very watchable show, certainly not slow, and as one reviewer commented its nothing but sex,sex, sex! I think he completely misses the point of what the the writers and producers of this show have given us. I find the show has a wonderful sense of time and place, like Maupins Tales of the City which was so evocative of San Francisco in the seventies, the TV shows from those books were also great,this new show is expressive not just of present day gay life San Francisco,but of many cities in North America. Its a funny,heartwarming and very real series,reflective of many sides of peoples lives, and insightful as to how many of us think and behave. I find the dialogue extremely effective, the acting A1, and am happy to see that there will be a season two. Keep it going!!!
