Sinopsis(1)
All-new HBO comedy series revolves around three thirty-something friends living in San Francisco, who explore the exciting, sometimes overwhelming, options available to a new generation of gay men. 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 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, 31, is questioning the idea of monogamy amid a move to domesticate with his boyfriend; and the group's oldest member, longtime waiter Dom, 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 Dom's roommate Doris, Agustín's boyfriend Frank, and Patrick's co-worker Owen, as well as love interests Kevin, Lynn, and Richie.

Reseñas (1)
Season 1 – 80% – These Boys from San Francisco deceive with their bodies. They appear mainly as a series of unrelated episodes, in which the irresistible boyish smile of Jonathan Groff clearly takes the lead, thanks to which Patrick outshines his two main colleagues. From the very first moment, Agustín is unsympathetic and surprisingly, Dom remains unremarkable for a long time. But then, new blood comes in the form of my favorite TV matadors Scott Bakula and Russell Tovey in supporting roles, and everything changes. Looking gains several new dynamics, the storylines complement each other nicely, and there is not an episode in which some unquestionable relationship truth isn't uttered. The first season, apart from its slower start, also suffers from a somewhat restrained ending, when more emotions would have been more fitting, instead of what the whole gang left us. If next time, they delve even deeper into all the storylines depicted, a new lesson from Looking will settle damn high on my list of pure relationship dramas. Season 2 – 90% – The realism and plasticity of all the characters reach such a high level this time that the slogan "Find something real" fits perfectly. Looking fully realizes its potential as a relationship series with a flawless ensemble cast (especially Groff and Tovey, I would give them an Emmy), which, combined with HBO's decision to make the second year the last, is desperately bittersweet. The potential that the series had in itself could be measured in meters. Looking past a few minor plot detours that sometimes made Patrick seem unnecessarily indecisive, it is clearly the most believable series of recent times.
