The official webse for From HBO this edy seri that offers up the unfiltered experienc of three 30-somethg gay iends livg San Francis. on HBO, featurg terviews, schle rmatn, behd the scen excliv, and more. * gay tv series set in san francisco *
It’s 2014 and there have been—as Ey Nsbm observed her glowg review for The New Yorker—a number of shows by gay men, but none as lmly, sularly gay as Lookg, which ntas ls than five (small) speakg parts for straight people.
Lookg featur three gay men who are, as the tle suggts, searchg: for partners, for reers, and, mostly, for themselv. What a shame that a show wh such promise—and which had a terrific queer storyle featurg a real-life gay actor—had to e to such a disappotg end. Empire never tried to hi s own soaps, and always paid good attentn to the stggle of Jamal (played by Jsie Smollett) livg as a gay hip hop artist.
ACS: Versace argu the magnu of that tragedy uld have been avoid were not for a society rife wh homophobia, where same-sex upl uldn’t marry, queer Amerins uldn’t serve the ary, and where succsful men lived closets and empty, straight marriag. Sorry Hannibal fans, but only one horror/mystery seri drippg wh homoeroticism mak the cut here.

She-Ra tak place a world of genr and sexual fluidy, of same-sex upl prented a matter of fact way, of gay parents, nonbary characters and where butch women and femme men have sex symbol stat.
