New York, N.Y., December 2, 2014 - Unlike any show out there, the HBO series Looking focuses on current gay life in the Bay Area, and on themes that everyone - gay and straight - can relate to: falling in love, finding professional fulfillment, forging an identity in a complicated world, and searching for happiness. Critics have heralded the series as "smart, diverse and real" (Slate) and "unflinchingly honest" (Huffington Post), and now fans and new viewers alike will have the chance to add the series' first season to their collections when Looking: The Complete First Season comes to Blu-ray ($39.98) and DVD ($29.98) January 6, 2015, just in time to catch up before Season 2 premieres on HBO. The Blu-ray set also comes with a Digital HD copy, and both the Blu-ray and DVD sets will take fans behind-the-scenes with hilarious and enlightening audio commentaries with cast and crew for six of the eight episodes.

Looking revolves around three 30-something friends living in San Francisco, who explore the exciting, sometimes overwhelming, options available to a new generation of gay men. Friendship may bind them, but each is at a markedly different point in his journey: Patrick (Jonathan Groff) is a 29-year-old video game designer returning to the dating world in the wake of his ex's engagement; aspiring artist Agustín (Frankie J. Alvarez), 31, questions the idea of monogamy amid a move to domesticate with his boyfriend; and the group's oldest member, longtime waiter Dom (Murray Bartlett), 39, is facing middle age with dreams still unfulfilled. The trio's stories intertwine dramatically as they search for happiness and intimacy in an unparalleled era for gay men.
