“Hunting Season” Puts Gay Sex (and Relationships) in the City
There’s a new webseries causing a stir (and not just in that region below your belt). It’s been referred to as the gay Sex and the City, and that’s an apt comparison considering that Hunting Season focuses on a gay blogger dealing with sex, the city of New York and his three optimal friends.
That blogger is Alex (Ben Baur, whose voiceovers for the show are far more nuanced than Carrie’s), a young 20-something who finds dating in NYC to be a difficult task, although hooking up with guys comes easily. Cruising comes easily for Tommy (Marc Sinoway) as well, who has mastered the art of using and losing guys. Nick (Gayby’s Jack Ferver) is the “older” guy of the group who is actually looking for a relationship—a seeming rarity for Manhattan gays. Lastly, there is prudish TJ (Jake Manabat), the guy in a long-term affair that seems to be headed for disaster.
