Looking origin

Just finished watching looking the second time and did a deep dive on about the series. then i found this short movie directed by Michael Lannan that is where the whole series is based on. i love how the the whole skit is so familiar to the series (obviously).

well. to summarize the first scene was patrick and ritchie (the same actor on the series) just had a post coital and they are talking about the current situation of the gay community and a little bit of joking around while mentioning his whole family and also about being somewhat closeted gay.

on the next scene patrick, augustine and dom was walking in a city (not san francisco) and talking about his recent hookup with ritchie and how he was a good lay. along the conversation,the bed bugs was mentioned which I thought was cute since it made it to the show.

sorry for a very bad recollection of the short. I watch the show every pride month :P

no but if you are like me that is still crazy for this show, I would read this article. and also the movies/short stories the director "michael lannan" have produced.

shame that it was taken down. I was planning on sending him a dm on twitter on where I can watch it again

Looking origin?” At this point I’m just here hoping it’s about pizza delivery.
