Question of the Day


Why do you think HBO's Looking is failing with viewers?

I wish I had an answer. I got rid of HBO a few months back and only have Cinemax for Banshee.

I think it's because it is another show that really doesn't show the realness of us.

I'm not sure. I think it's partly because the show moves at such a slow pace--people have often said this about Mad Men, but I think the glamour/clothes/smoking/drinking of the period draw people in.

Also, with most of the focus on Patrick, Dom and Agustin (but moreso Dom) are just starting to make an impression.

And to be fair, GIRLS is a low rated show as well (not as low as Looking, but not as popular as say, True Blood).

I think people need to give it some time... What show grabs you in the first 3 episodes?

They should have released it netflix style with all episodes available simultaneously.

BTW, HBO's True Detective with Mconaughey and Harrelson is REALLY good.
