[It] doesn't have a unique voice like Dunham's divisive multiple award winner. For lack of a better word, it's kind of milquetoast.

On a show this unconcerned with being momentous, it's pretty remarkable.

In some ways he's [Patrick] the stabilizing force of Looking. And in other ways the loose cannon. He's also very likable, which is still a key element in most TV series.

It's refreshing that Looking offers a view of the young, gay lifestyle that isn't set in the midst of the AIDS crisis or focused primarily on the experience of coming out.

If representation is important, Looking is doing some important representing. But what elevates Looking above being a "symbol of serious progress," is that it is not content to be just that.
January 21, 2014
For a show that in so many ways feels new, Looking is invitingly mellow -- it doesn't set out to define gay life in 2014, but in trusting its characters and the different paths they're on, captures a sense of how the world has and continues to change.

It's just not original or memorable.
January 17, 2014
If this were just another comedy about straight singles, it would be forgettable, but the rare concentration on gay men makes it worth checking out.
January 22, 2014
It's a startlingly provocative opening for what soon reveals itself to be an endearingly low-key show.
January 21, 2014
Looking is a good show. It will reward viewers who can hang on beyond the first episode and can adapt to its much slower pace and more naturalistic shooting style.
