Day 7: Have you seen Looking?
Also, will you take a look at the challenge I proposed for Day 6? I rather foolishly posted it on a Saturday and I suspect no one saw it. :D
Day 7
In your own space, share a favorite piece of original canon (a TV episode, a song, a favorite interview, a book, a scene from a movie, etc) and explain why you love it so much. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
So, with all the Hamilton love (which, I AM THERE. I got a copy of the soundtrack for Christmas and it is all I've been listening to...until I needed to break out the Bowie playlist today), and also the Glee love that lives on...I wonder that more people aren't talking about Looking.
I mean, it stars Jonathan Groff, is what I'm saying. Frequently nude and having sex.
And, well, that's probably the first thing that attracted us to it. But it's also a great little show, filling the Queer As Folk-shaped hole in our hearts (this use of the first person plural is because it's one of the few shows Jay and I enjoy together), but without all the melodrama. Seriously, the absolute best thing about this show is that it's a LGBT show where no one's bashed, and no one's slurred, and the drama is just...life stuff. It's post-gay marriage queer TV, and it's lovely.
And, yeah, it's already been canceled. But they're making a movie, which Groff referred to when he was on Colbert, teaching Stephen how to walk like King George.
So, Looking. It's on HBO Go, and was posted in the vault, though I'm not sure if they're still current? It's out there. Go find it.
