Reacting to Looking Season 1 - Episode 1

Hey beautiful people,

Very excited to be coming in with the first episode of a new show for you today. Let me know what you guys think... I am a couple of episodes in now and really loving it!

Sending you all lots of love from Portugal <3

Comments

Love Groffsauce!!! So glad you reacted to this show. Looking forward to catching up ❤️

Laurie Barber

I love this show - it's just as you said, real. At least it feels real to me. It's just these people and their lives. It's an emotional journey for all of them. I'm glad you're enjoying it so far :) (also, yes, you will love Doris, she is the best)

Michelle K

I've seen snippets of 'Heartbreak High' and that definitely looks more like my sort of thing.

Michael

Waiting for him to review Heartbreak High!! But that's fine, this way I find myself watching things I wouldn't normally, like Skam!!

Audrey Gunn

Yeah, I'm feeling the same as you two. Not sure about it yet. It's not exciting me as much as 'Heartstopper', 'Young Royals' and 'SKAM'. Personally, I would have liked to have seen Jackie review the other seasons of 'SKAM' first, but it's all ok. We all respond differently to different things! 😊

Michael

For a first episode, I liked it. The main characters are interesting, especially Patrick. I enjoyed the humor of the dialogues. Although it is still not clear what the story is, it held my attention.

Ingrid Machado Pena

I live in SF and remember when this was being film. Lots of scenes in my neighborhood (The Castro). Never watched it, since we didn't have cable and no easy access to HBO. I'm enjoying watching for the first time with you all. And, yes, please try to up the volume.

Douglas Rayner

I am also unsure. Been thinking about it, which is a good sign, but think I need to see a couple more episodes to figure out the characters and the feel of the show properly. Russell Tovey has to be a pull.

Graham & Ruth May

Hmm, not sure I'm going to like this, I don't know why though 🤔 maybe when Russell Tovey turns up I might like it more! I was okay with the volume as I had the random subtitles again so I just read what they were saying!!

Audrey Gunn

noted on the volume - ep 2 is already scheduled but will edit for ep 3! ♥️

Jackie-Ross Lavender

Yes, Lane, I agree about the volume. I had mine up to the max to be able to hear the dialogue.

Graham & Ruth May

For once, I’m literally watching this along with you for the first time, since I don’t have HBO. And yes, it’s much more adult than the other shows you’ve reacted to here, which is perfectly fine. I agree that Jonathan Groff is a cutie, and I mostly know him from cast recordings, so it’s fun to see him as the lead of a full series. You’re correct that that is Murray Bartlett, who is not only in “The Last of Us” but also played Michael “Mouse” Tolliver in the 2019 revival of “Tales of the City” (a show I have loved in every one of its incarnations, including the original novels). The volume on the show itself was a bit low, so I had to really listen hard to catch all of the dialogue, so you might consider raising the volume on the episode, while keeping your volume the same.

Lane Wright

Congratulations on picking this, it's brilliant. Wait until Russell Tovey appears (but I guess you've already seen that). You may find it difficult to put it on YouTube without editing it to death. 😂

Dennis Verner

Hmmm, I enjoyed the humour of this. Don’t know why, but I wasn’t expecting it to be funny. The characters are interesting and I am definitely in agreement that the ending entices you to watch the next episode. I am not sure what I think yet, because like you, I don’t really have a sense of who’s who and exactly what’s happening, but I expect that will become more apparent in future episodes. 🤔

Graham & Ruth May

“Maybe I’m endearing?” Yes Jackie, you are! 💜

Kim Engel

I am excited to see this as I know nothing about it. What I do know is that it’s pouring with rain here in Tintagel and I am extremely envious of your holiday in the sun! Enjoy every minute! x❤️

Graham & Ruth May

Damn, I love this show! Curious to see how it holds up during a rewatch, now that there’s more great content available.

Kim Engel

That's a good surprise! I will watch afer work for sure! 😊

Ingrid Machado Pena

*sighs* I'm literally on my way out the door to work!! Got hospital appointment after that so will have to wait til this evening to watch it. Hope you're enjoying Portugal and some much needed sun xx
