Single, Out

Single, Out is a rare sort of show when it comes to its portrayal of queerness. It is both realistic and quirky, fun and sentimental, and ripe with nuances not typically portrayed in coming-of-age stories about the queer community.

Single, Out tells the story of Adam, a young man trying to balance his hidden sexuality, ambitions and complicated family life. The show does not fall into the familiar tropes of similar shows, as it is so much more than a "coming out" show. It takes time to explore the complications of each character in a realistic and relatable light after Adam has outed himself.

A wonderful cast, consistently terrific writing and beautiful direction make for a cinematic experience as one follows Adam in his journey to find romance, explore himself and connect with the people he cares most about. The raw empowerment the show presents in each episode make for a binge worthy series you won't soon forget.

Only half way through the second series and looking forward to season three in 2025 I believe. Well filmed and many attractive actors, and very pretty faces. Not all are great actors, but many are and I also know several as friends. I do a lot of theatre so I am used to various levels of actors starting out. I believe in supporting and encouraging the heroes who venture into a life in the arts and entertainment. I Just wish all the cast were recognised and listed. Goodness even I am on IMDB. It is the bible and essential to start a catalogue of people's work.

Love, mistakes and heartbreak is a common human theme and looking back to early relationships is endearing. The familiarity of first jobs, first loves, first flats is great to indulge in. Find it and give it a go.

I really wanted to like this series, but its shortcomings are just too severe. In the past I have enjoyed many comedies from Australia (Rosehaven remains an all-time favourite), but this series is hindered by weak writing and some shockingly poor acting. Each season seems progressively worse than the last. The first season was the strongest, season two quite a bit weaker and season three is painful to sit through. The dialog is long winded and often pointless, and the actors are clearly untrained and inexperienced, making many scenes difficult to endure. I understand the patriotic support by some Aussie reviewers, but this is no Heartstopper. Not even close.

Single, Out from director Lee Galea, is a fresh feel-good Aussie series that captivates viewers on a journey through the relatable trials and tribulations of young romance, whilst embracing the love, compassion, support and resilience of the LGBTQI+ community.

The series features stellar performances from an array of young talent, most notably the series lead Will Hutchins (Adam) and his supportive yet fragile on-screen brother Steven Christou (Clayton). You can't help but fall in love with their characters and follow their journeys as the series progresses.

Not only does Single, Out tackle the issues of modern love and relationships with family and friends but also the dilemma many young people face when exploring their sexuality and making the decision to "come out" in today's changing world.

This 6-part series is beautifully crafted, filmed and delivered making it extremely easy to binge (which I did myself on a recent Qantas flight). A credit to Galea and the team.

Like many others, I look forward to seeing the characters and their storylines evolve further in a highly-anticipated second series.

This series shows queer love in such a beautiful way and is a much needed series for us Aussies. Creator Lee Gaela has outdone it with Single Out. It is a 6-episode season 1, with a highly anticipated second season already filmed.

It brings you into the lives of many LGBTQIA+ people through depicting modern dating, the highs and lows of relationships and the budding friendships that come from meeting other people in the LGBTQIA+ community. It closely follows Adam and Clayton (Brothers) and their evolving relationship after Adam comes out as gay and starts dating Clay's best friend.

I have watched the season twice and I must say you will have plenty of laughs, some OMG moments and possibly some tears. The quick-witted humour within this show is next level. Lee and the entire cast are excellent throughout the entire production. It is a must watch show, easily binge worthy and is exactly what I wish we had many years ago when I was growing up.
