Looking, the controversial but low-rated series about gay men in San Francisco, has not been renewed for a third season, writer Kevin Sessums and star Jonathan Groff have confirmed. Groff, however, is promising a follow-up movie, according to NewNowNext. This doesn’t come as a huge surprise; HBO, which airs the series, typically announces next-season renewals early on, to convince viewers of their commitment to a show. The second-season finale of Looking aired Sunday.
