Suffice it to say that ONTD did not, on the whole, love the premiere of LOOKING last night. The people who think it's too white still think it's too white, and some who had been looking forward to it were put off by the ambling pace and casual dialogue.
Watching it on a blurry and stuttering online stream I was a little deflated myself: Half an hour wasn't enough to really establish the characters and situations, so the whole thing did feel a little insubstantial.

With it came some pretty remarkable expectations that are really no surprise when...( Jesus, so much more text under the cut, I don't know that you really need to botherCollapse )
Right. That's great. So there it is, then: a strong A-minus for HBO's LOOKING!
