TV Review: ‘Looking’ Has Appeal Beyond Gay Viewers - SF Chronicle
'Looking' cast's love affair with S.F. Peter Hartlaub, SF Chronicle - Inside the theater, HBO president of programming Michael Lombardo got the crowd on his side early, recounting conversations with other Hollywood executives, who said HBO would have problems with San Francisco crews and the logistics of shooting in the city. "Let me tell you, that is bulls--," Lombardo said to the cheering crowd. "It's one of the finest crews that's worked on any HBO show anywhere."

TV Weekend: HBO’s Looking - Time
Review: HBO's 'Looking' an authentic glimpse inside lives of gay men - LA Times - And in fact, "Looking" probably owes more to "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" than it does "Queer as Folk."
HBO’s ‘Looking’: The world may change, but the heartache remains - Washington Post - Actually, the more I think about it, the show’s real standout is San Francisco itself. “Looking” is not concerned with portraying the city as a techie utopia of sustainable lifestyles and locavore groceries. Instead, those things are seen as a demographic burden to bear, right along with being gay and young and old and whatever else, right along with the drudgeries of making the rent and catching the bus. For all its focus on sex, “Looking” is best when it’s about the city.
