When asked about Looking's renewal chances, Lannan revealed that he is "cautiously optimistic".

"HBO has always given us a lot of support," he explained. "They love the show."

Referencing the show's low viewing figures, Lannan added: "[HBO realises] there are other things more important than numbers.

"Our numbers have been okay, just not incredible. HBO have been great and, hopefully, they will continue to be."

Looking stars Jonathan Groff, Murray Bartlett, Frankie J Alvarez and Raul Castillo as a group of gay men navigating life and careers in modern day San Francisco.

Russell Tovey also appears on the show as a series regular.

The season two finale of Looking will air on HBO in the US tonight (March 22). The show airs on Sky Atlantic in the UK.
