Ryan, the borta guy from Episode 1 (“Best Hook Up Ever”), won’t appear again on “Hanging Out.” Pretty sure the character said goodbye for good when he tapped out of his date’s birthday party and refused to eat the handa.

Ryan, the borta guy from Episode 1 (“Best Hook Up Ever”), won’t appear again on “Hanging Out.” Pretty sure the character said goodbye for good when he tapped out of his date’s birthday party and refused to eat the handa.
The strength of the web series, the first of its kind to carry the gay theme in the Philippines, connects to that bit. The show is interesting because, off all the characters on the five episodes so far, all but Ryan can come up again later on—and anybody can practically end up with anybody.
“Hanging Out,” produced by TEAM magazine and co-presented by gay social app Blued, is a departure from the tired plots of many gay-themed productions. Out there is an oversaturation of stories dealing with first encounters and coming to terms, fears of outing and infidelity. This series is not of dilemmas and sob stories—at least not yet. This is a “post-out” story. None of the main gay characters are hiding in the closet.

The series begins with twentysomething David (Paulito Del Mundo) unintentionally crashing the birthday party of Adrian (Jox Gonzales) because his Grindr hookup gave him the wrong address.
